Don't Leave Me! #WattpadIndiaAwards
Looking at the bright sun, which is not so bright right now hiding itself to create darkness all around totally makes me think about my present situation. I heard that sound of footsteps entering the room, so I turned around and said, "Hey!" "Don't start now. You will get your wish soon." he said removing his coat. "We can't!" I said, looking at him. "What do you mean? All these days you are asking nothing but for divorce papers. Now they will reach you in a few days for sure. Now why are you saying we can't?" he asked with a completely blank expression. "I am pregnant!" I mumbled. "What?" he asked, stepping towards me in shock. "I.Am.Pregnant!" I said each word with force and then let the darkness consume me.Complete
It Began In Italy | ✔️
One last trip with her family before she goes to University. Her intentions for this trip were to spend every minute making memories and savouring the last moments she'd get with her family before she moved away. She did this, just not with who she had planned. In the Italian sun it's easy to make rash decisions and to have a lapse in judgement. Especially when a man, you've only just met, comes into play. When he's showing you the island and teaching you Italian, how can you not fall madly in love? With three weeks to spend, will she let herself fall head over heels for a guy she will most likely never see again, or will she stick with her former plan and come to her senses?Complete

Across the Globe [COMPLETE]
"Two best friends, a trip through a mystical land, and a stranger that will change it all." Trying to figure out if she chose the right career, dealing with a broken heart, keeping up with uni papers and work... That's already enough of a challenge that stresses out this 20 year old control-freak. So add a whole bunch of family secrets, a trip overseas with her best friend, and some eerie flashbacks, and you get a hell of an adventure. [This is a new adult/magical realism novel] -------- FINISHED STORY! ! Aprox 100.000 words Warning: Contains coarse language, and non-explicit adult scenes. NOTE: After writing this, I noticed a whole lot of problems in my own writing. There are issues I opened up in this tale because I wanted to dig deeper, and never did. I noticed my own internalized phobias when reading, and please, if anyone feels offended or triggered about any of it, call me out. I'm trying to do better. It might have bad rep or offensive content that I'm looking into. This story will be completely re-written once I figure some things out. Also, I know the culture explored in this book (maori culture) is not my own, but after living for many years in New Zealand, I feel that it's part of me, and by no means did I mean this to be offensive to anyone. I hope it's not. I intended this as a "tribute" to a culture that I found rich, enlightening, and that accepted me with open arms.Complete
