His dream of being someone lies beyond the walls of Walter High. Ethan is a nerd yet not in measures of a cliche being in the society... He wants change... He wants to defy paradigms... and he will do anything to say his soul in front... He will do it his way.... his manner... his words.
Perfect is a reflection of the adventures in high school. An adventure that unfolds from the first step in a bisque classroom and never ends until you die.
Thanks to my previous English teachers in Sophomore and Junior Hs. They're the reasons why I wrote this way. :)

Everything I Ever Wanted
He was perfect. The kind of perfect I wish I could be. The kind of perfect we could've been if only he had liked me back. Everything started in those damn highschool hallways. When my stupid obsessions and delusions started to become reality. Or so I thought... He was perfect. The kind of perfect I wished this short story to be. I hope you will enjoy this solely based on real life story about a hopeless romantic girl who gets too attached to boys who won't even look at her, and a guy who's heart isn't ready to receive the love she wants to give him.Complete
i like you but i cant say it
A very cliché story of how the new student, Kenji, and the school delinquent, Caleb, fell in love with each other. Of how the jock ultimately fell for the nerd's empathetic nature after going through the worst of what life could throw at him, and how the nerd's ordinary life could be changed in an instant. Will they ever find a way to make it work? [Just a short story I wrote for fun with almost 0 planning, each page is about 400-700 words long but I hope it would make for a fun read anyway :'D]Complete

And after all these years, would Ethan finally give me the answer I once longed for? ------------------------------- Their journey began again not with the intensity of young love, but with the steady warmth of two people rediscovering each other, older, wiser, and ready for the love they hadn't realized was waiting for them all along.

Almost, Always 🍁🥀
"Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel. In a classroom filled with noise, their glances screamed stories. A slow-burn connection, unsaid words, and almosts that could've been everything. This is not a fairytale. This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.
