❝Blurs of colors passed by Finley's eyes. She knew there was a hand on her waist, but she stared on, not knowing whose hand it was. All she knew was Bedisa had hit her rock-bottom.❞
Finley McDonough and Bedisa Karimov have always been there for each other. But as soon as anorexia sucker-punches Bedisa in the stomach, their relationship crumbles and falls, leaving Bedisa alone and Finley with her sort-of boyfriend Alan Clearwater.
Then one day, at a track meet of Bedisa's, she passes out on the red, bumpy lane, and is sent to the hospital, leaving her grandmother, mother, father, and sister Elisabete-Xatia to figure out her eating disorder.
How can you love someone so much even when the last time you shared a proper conversation, you ended up running out of their house with a bag of Cheetos clipped between your fingers and having obscenities shouted at you?

Alexio Ramones is the boy next door, but he's also the mysterious troublemaker at Harrison High. Their friendship has been kept between them since the day she was born.

Yet, the moment Adam joins their school, she starts dating him and Alexio is left feeling his heart shattering as the love of literally all his life finds happiness in someone else. In another man. He's selfless until suddenly he's not and the world falls apart. For once it's not the girl that gets her heart broken by the bad boy, rather the other way around.Complete

Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Complete
