From a simple conversation happening between two Filipina astronauts, to an individual confessing his true feelings to the person he loves, to a failed missing person's investigation and the lover searching for his whereabouts in the Philippines, to a story about the woeful memories surrounding a rabbit plushie in the United Kingdom; a conversation happening between people at night with a campfire, about spirits and passion, in Norway; to a dying animal's thoughts about the person that saved it, to the letters given to the person that matters to one's life, to a man trapped in a cursed town and more. These 30 stories compiled in the months of August 2023 - February 2024, made in handwritten yellow pad papers and shared to the world for the first time shows that there are ways we find to connect with others through the stories we tell to one another. Stories dealing with the loss of a loved one, the horrors of reality, about the challenges faced in life, a longing for the person we loved, the laughter shared in-between, the hopes we treasure for tomorrow and beyond and of the little interactions that happen in life. It is through the attachments, love, support, consistency, determination and dreams do we find the will to push through and accomplish what needs to be done that is set out for us to tackle. Goals and art; sacrifices made and understood; and the belief that chasing the dream is all worth it and that it helps us connect and inspire us to do what matters the most. Language: Taglish (Mostly English) Date published: Month of February 2024

💡this is a collection of my Instagram romance short stories. ~Re-editing, publishing and writing more. [A Country Man] ....and the days had turned weeks and weeks into months and the following year drew in. A call from Vie had come in March. "We have a baby" she said "and a son" There was a pause on the other line. My heart pounded now "You have a flight to catch John" She said with a chuckle. I had no words, she knew and Vie laughed all along through my silence. [Aries] I nodded. I could swear by my brother's grave, I was dead listening now. "We've been watching you for a month now. Tomorrow is your birthday" I watched him stop and look at me. That message he wanted my eyes to tell, he did see because I couldn't believe that for the past four weeks, I've been under someone's eyes. "Don't get loud yet" Okay. A pre-information that was useful. "Please get to the point sir" He nodded slowly and just stared. I knew at that moment, the answer was coming "You're here for surrogacy and you happen to be the best DNA we could find in such short notice" HEADS UP HERE!! ~All them stories are mine. If you see it somewhere else that isn't Wattpad or my Instagram page, tell me!! ~I will write more scenes on stories that get more votes and comments. Comment on the story you love to read more parts on. Remember to Vote👮🏾‍♀️❤️

"Goodbye Curly Head" by NUmaker
40 parts Complete
Through thick and thin the Law shall prevail. A new sense of purpose awaits us, children of light, in the land where it all began. The darkness in which we once cowered in fear, now curbed by the might of our endless light. Come, brothers, come, sisters. Let there be peace among the wicked, just as the Law dictates. Peace and certainty is all that you have ever longed for, little angel. A bright, stable future. A roof without holes above thy head. Acknowledgement and recognition of thy existence, feverish dreams of grandeur. Greed born from yearning, treacherous vines of rapacity taint your innocent soul. You seek a future that does not exist. Let thy fingers hold the fragile line between dream and nightmare. Let thy light navigate the path. Shall thee give in and falter, O' land of old, envelop his body in thy unending flame of chaos. Spit out nothing but an empty husk, the remnants of a smile once so bright. Shall thee prevail, O', Great Kazdel, I ask of you, the impossible - take mercy on the innocent. Don't let the radiance dim and don't let the mind turn bleak. Wake, young traveler. Bid thy farewells and burn thy bridges. It's time to say goodbye, curly head. Cross post from AO3. For a shorter and more on-point description, look no further! I had something silly written up before throwing it out in exchange for that wall of text upstairs. It's a little story "about a young, dumb sankta who's been dealt a bad hand at life, looking for his place in all this mess. The pointless search for a better future leads him far, far away from home, to a country forever ravaged by war and misery - Kazdel, the promised land where devils roam free and peace feels out of place." Anyway, it's quite lengthy, but hopefully enjoyable? Slide a comment if you want, I'll give you a tiny kiss on the forehead. Man, do I love comments. (Lastly, to point out, English is not my native language, but I don't think it'll be much of an issue ;3)

- Welcome to my world of stories, it's time sit back and enjoy these realistic and fascinating pieces of artwork. - A compilation of short stories; thrilling and exciting; tragic at some point, coupled with a lot of lessons to learn from. Thanks for reading❤️ Here are some scenes from selected stories👇 ...One of her younger friends said in tears clutching Mary tightly. "I thought you were home and that they would kill you or even take you with them" she said sobbing the more... ... Before I reached the door, it opened by itself and I could see my mum's figure standing in the doorway; she seemed to be holding a cane. "GOOD MORNING MA" I greeted. She wasn't interested in my greetings either; she surveyed the room in a disgusting manner, and the irritated expression on her face signified that I was in big trouble... ...Bassey arrived his door step; he opened the door, the sitting room was filled with smoke; he couldn't even see through the room. It made him cough, he stepped outside; he was confused,what could be burning in his house? He shouted for help... NOW SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE STORIES❤️😊
