She is a muse, but you can never tell by just looking at her. Her brown-black hair contrasts against her eyes,that are wide, dark, and vibrant all at once,also,her lips always seem to be set in a moody pout. She seems quiet for the most part,and is always kind to anyone and everyone,even those who give her grief; in her own way.
Her name,Marilyn Clent.
She just knows from that one walk,and that one conversation that will be one tough cookie to crack. Roel is not proving easy to read. Which upsets Marylin, because she hats to admit it but, she loves being right when it comes to the highly predictable qualities of other humans.
He is a poet, but you can never tell by just listening to him. He has a Kurt Cobain profile, chin-length,toasty brown hair, murky brown eyes,and the slightest cleft in his chin. His personality is just short of obnoxious,but he is a good friend,and protective over those he truly cares for.
His name,Roel Lews.
He thinks of Marylin again and how she enchanted him in a weird way. She seemed a bit awkward,and is probably clumsy,he thinks. Even still, she seemed to move about effortlessly. He has a feeling,that he will see her again.
So begins- "The Ballad of Marilyn and Roel."

Unanswered questions would be the only thing to stop them now.
He was the poet while she was the muse,
But she had a pen that she knew how to use.
With a touch of redemption, a hint of elation;
A recipe for disaster...?

WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION
There are imperfect moments in every life-but sometimes, there are perfect accidents . . .
What's the point of pretending nothing has changed when everything has? It's the last summer before college, and Jonas Avery knows he should be excited. Instead, he hides out at home, avoiding his friends, his family, and everything that resembles his old life. Because nothing will be normal again-because of The Accident, when everything started falling apart.
Brennan Davis knows she needs to stand up and face her anxiety-the deep, dark, debilitating dread that rules her everyday life. Because what stops her from going out into the world and just living is going to get a whole lot worse. She's leaving for college in the fall, where she'll be confronted with even more to worry about.
To get back up sometimes you have to fall down, hard . . .
When Jonas crashes into Brennan-in a harmless, albeit embarrassing fender bender-the two teens connect in ways they never expected. As friends, they help each other overcome their biggest falls and faults, and soon discover that while love can't fix everything, it's sometimes a place to start.
Sensitive, wry, and unabashedly authentic, The Opposite of Falling Apart isn't about finding perfection in another person or fixing the things we think are broken. Instead, Micah Good has penned an enchantingly honest novel about accepting the very pieces of ourselves that make us unique, whole, and undeniably human.
