"It's your choice, Effie, whether or not you construct a masterpiece. To some, your work looks like a blank sheet of paper with doodles and drawings on it, but to musicians? Its poetry to the ears. You can't sit here and wait while your brain contortions itself into those doodles everyone else views. Music over mind Effie, that's how you get your masterpiece."
Effelia Grace was only needed to be described in one word; exquisite.
She was conservative and confident.
She was lovely in all the possible ways a women could radiate. When Effie gets excepted into her dream performing arts school, Effie catches an eye on someone she would have never expected to see.
Her conductor; Blaine Rothschild.
Now, Mr. Rothschild isn't the nicest of people, but tends to find interest in the young student. Him being one of the youngest constructors, Blaine finds difficulty in staying professional even when his adventurous side dares to appear.
Many things can go wrong, but sometimes the wrongs tend to be right.
And whose to blame young Effie Grace to fall for her dashing conductor. Let's see if music really can bring two hearts to dance.

Winning Back Mr. Right
Life is too short to be anything but ordinary. That being said, I learned how to play the guitar one day and wrote songs about love. My guitar skills maybe limited but I had so much fond memories that the callous on my fingers made a good souvenir on that musical stage in my life. As the years passed, I began taking interest in art; painting in particular. So I collected all the coloring materials I can find and start sketching in this huge white pad I got from some local bookstore. My brothers can sketch and since we share the same DNA, it's probably one of the reasons why I do contain a pinch of that same talent. To this date, sketching and painting are the two hobbies I still find interesting especially on stressful days and lonely nights. Call me greedy. It didn't stop there. My reading habit became so much more persistent that I also took a liking on writing. Wattpad paved a way for me to express myself, to show the world that I can be whoever I want to be as long as I put my heart and mind (together with a lot of hard work) to it. Thus, Winning Back Mr. Right was born. Like all relationships, one has the discretion of fulfilling, disappointing, and enduring at the same time. And just like the other girls out there, we need to find inspiration or simply to get stoked. Winning Back Mr. Right is a story about a beautiful, young lady named Airie. Airie is loved and cherished by Nathaniel, who is every girl's Mr. McDreamy. The couple is what the millenials would term today as #relationshipgoals. One day, her world turned upside down upon meeting the not-so-stranger-after-all Kevin, who happens to be every girl's Mr. McSteamy. Airie makes a mistake and crosses the line. Is love really enough to make a relationship work? Does being with someone for a long time guarantee a lifetime together? How she picked up the pieces and redeemed her rebel heart will lead her to Mr. Right. The question is...who exactly is Mr. Right?Complete
Mr Possessive ✅
"Xavier, are you out of your mind? You can't hit anyone you want." I tried to pull him away from the guy. With his temper, he might send him to the hospital for quite a long time. Xavier suddenly stood up, he took my hands in his and pushed me to the wall behind me. He looked deep into my eyes. I got scared, I saw him angry before but never at me. He closed his eyes and put his head against mine. "You make me do crazy things. I'm not letting you talk to any guy from now on. I know I promised that I'll behave, but I can't see you talk or laugh with any guy." How can he be possessive over our juniors? ****************** Hello. I'm Anastasia. You can call me Anna. I'm a normal school girl. Like other kids of my age, I also don't like school. But my reason is different from them. I get bullied every day. It is the same at home also. My cousins bully me. My uncle and aunt only listen to their children. I get punished for their mistakes too. But suddenly one by one all of this bullying stopped. I don't know the reason, but from the moment I started spending time with this new guy who transferred to our school. Everything bad had stopped. *************** Hey. I'm Xavier. I hate school, but I still go there so I can entertain myself. I got expelled from 9 schools already. You see, I can't tolerate ill-mannered people and in school, you can find a bunch of them. So it is fun to make them see their place. In this new school, I found a girl. She was so fragile and oblivious of her beauty. She made me feel warm. So I followed her. I followed her literally everywhere. **************** Hello, lovelies. Hope you like the story.Complete

Crescendo || Schrucy Fanfic AGED UP!
!! FINISHED !! Still reviewing each chapter for correction before publishing them. Schroeder always believed that music was his one true love-until Lucy van Pelt crashed into his life, loud, stubborn, and impossible to ignore. She was his greatest distraction, his biggest frustration, and the only person who ever made him feel something beyond the notes on his piano. Years later, he has everything he ever dreamed of: sold-out concerts, worldwide recognition, and the chance to play alongside legends. But no amount of success can drown out the echoes of what he left behind. When a chance reunion forces him to face Lucy once more, old wounds reopen, and unspoken words hang between them like an unresolved chord. She's different now-bolder, more distant, and utterly indifferent to the boy who once consumed her world. As their paths intertwine in ways neither of them expected, Schroeder is forced to confront the truth he spent years running from: was his dream worth losing her? And if the music never stopped between them, is it too late to play one final song?Complete
Inside Our Head | NEW STORY
This is not just a story. It is a collection of silent battles. Inside these chapters are different minds, different struggles, and different experiences that people often fail to see or understand. Each story opens a small window into lives affected by mental health conditions, emotional pain, and the weight of being misunderstood by society. From obsessive thoughts that refuse to stop, to overwhelming anxiety, to emotions that feel too heavy to carry alone, each chapter shows how different people fight battles that are invisible to others. Some are aware of what they are going through but cannot simply "stop." Some try to function normally while their minds are in constant conflict. Some are judged, ignored, or misunderstood by the world around them. This book does not exist to label people. It exists to humanize them. Because behind every behavior that others may not understand, there is a person trying their best to survive their own mind. And maybe, in reading these stories, we learn to see them a little more clearly. Not as broken. Not as different. But as human.Complete
