You wanted to know how I died? It's simple, really.

I saw dead people... 
As umbrellas. 
And the umbrellas didn't like it.

I'm sorry, did you want to hear more?

Now a (completed) anthology of short stories, flash fiction, and hopefully quality writing. Expect to find a bereaved mother dealing with an post-apocalyptic wasteland, a hair-raising fairytale, two professional bankrobbers, the original Rick-Roller, and maybe a rubber chicken or two.

And... three years later, we've reached 500 reads!

#𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝒃𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝒖𝒔 How would you react if you were told to leave the place where you'd spent your entire childhood, in just one night, without a chance to say goodbye? How would you feel if you were asked to cut all ties with your friends overnight, as if memories could be erased that easily? How would you cope with being told to start over in an unfamiliar city, to make new friends while burying the laughter and love of your birthplace? And what would you do if, just when you found love again, the ghosts of your past collided with the quiet comfort of your present, turning everything into chaos? Because all of this, every heartbreak, every silent scream, every attempt to rebuild, was faced by 𝒉𝒆𝒓. The girl who learned to smile even when the ground beneath her kept shifting. 𝒆𝒌𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒌𝒂, the girl who walked away without goodbye, carries guilt behind quiet smiles and holds pieces of every friendship in her heart. She leaves her old life behind, only to find comfort, laughter, and new bonds in a city that feels like home. 𝒚𝒖𝒈, the boy who's full of life, infectiously cheerful and fearless, brings color and warmth into her world, making every moment brighter. As new friendships blossom and romance sparks, fate brings Ekantika face to face with the past she tried to leave behind, old friends, unfinished confessions, and memories that refuse to fade. Some ties break, some heal, and some become the love story neither of them expected. To see how friendships are reforged, hearts are mended, and love finds its way, dive into the story of 𝒆𝒌𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒌𝒂 and 𝒚𝒖𝒈, and feel every thread that weaves them together.
