Expectations Stories

destined series #1 Started: 04|30|24 Ended: 11|18|24 Astriluna Trishanne Gonzales always seem a little too far. Bata pa lang siya, damang-dama na niya ang bigat ng mundo. She was abused, manipulated, and traumatized. And because of those experiences, she grew up struggling with her mental health. As years passed, she distanced herself from people who tried to reach her, convinced that she was too broken to be loved. Sa isip niya, ang mga taong tulad niya ay hindi pinipili, pinagtyatyagaan lang. Until Rylixan Uno Wilde came into her life. He was the lead vocalist of the campus band whose presence felt like sunlight through heavy clouds. Parang lahat kaya niyang gawin, makinig, maghintay, at magmahal. He showed her that healing isn't always loud or fast... sometimes, it's just having someone beside you who refuses to let go. And for the first time in a long time, someone told her without words that it was okay to rest.

A New Adult Coming-of-Age Romance. Finding Love. Finding Home. Finding Yourself. Love doesn't always point north-sometimes it points inward. At twenty-two, Eleanor "Nell" Brooks feels unmoored-finished with college, uncertain of her future, and quietly exhausted from living the life everyone else planned for her. When a fractured family tie and an unexpected opportunity pull her away from the city to a small coastal town she once swore she'd never return to, Nell hopes only for distance and clarity. Instead, she finds Cal Rowan-steady, intuitive, and rooted in a place she's still afraid to claim. As Nell rebuilds herself piece by piece, Cal challenges her to stay present, to stop running from who she's been and who she's becoming. Together, they navigate first real love, adult choices, grief, ambition, and the terrifying beauty of choosing a life on purpose. But when the road forward demands sacrifice, Nell must decide: follow the map she was given-or trust the compass of her heart.

(Can be read as one-shot for now.) Dealing with random thoughts, criticism, love, social expectations, intense emotions...

The story she wished they had are these unrequited overthinking drafts.

13+ - Book cover was made with help of Canva Ai - Lorrain runs a small garage on the edge of legality, fixing and improving cars by day and preparing them for illegal street races by night. Also working with her sister, Beatrice, a loud, fearless, and adored racer who struggles with the expectations of her fans. Together with their clique, they build their lives around racing and loyalty. One day Beatrice can no longer race, and an old decision is forced back onto the table, one that brings up a past that was never meant to resurface. Racing isn't just dangerous; it's addictive. Somewhere between engines and empty streets, connections grow where they shouldn't, and feelings begin to turn tension into something harder to ignore. Between late nights, fast money, and adrenaline, the group begins to fracture in quiet ways. Because in a world built on speed, it's not the crashes that do the damage; it's what happens before them. (No smut)

Marinette Dupain-Cheng never expected her life to feel this normal again. After years spent protecting Paris, defeating an akuma army, and finally bringing down Gabriel Agreste's reign of terror, she thought peace would feel strange. But in a small sunlit apartment overlooking the Seine, peace feels a lot like waking up tangled in soft sheets, sharing coffee with the boy she once only dreamed of, and sketching designs on the balcony while he practices photo poses to make her laugh. Adrien Agreste, finally free from his father's control, is learning what it means to choose his own future. Modeling still follows him, but now it's on his terms - new agencies, new opportunities, and a life built with someone who sees him beyond the spotlight. For the first time, he is not a puppet or a hero. He's just Adrien... and Marinette is the one place where he truly belongs. Marinette's dreams of starting her own fashion line collide with the pressure of Paris' competitive industry. Adrien struggles to define who he is without the mask, without the miraculous, and without the man who controlled his past. Together, they face critics, old expectations, lingering trauma, and the strange ache of learning to grow as individuals while building a shared life. And when a new threat quietly rises in the city-one not magical, but human, calculated, and dangerously tied to the Agreste name-Marinette and Adrien realize that even without suits or superpowers, courage comes from the heart. Their greatest battle now? Learning how to love each other in a world where they finally have the freedom to live in.

Thoughts. Memories. Emotions. Step inside the hallways of my mind. Every poem is a door that invite you to wander through the unseen corners of my heart --- Let's explore together.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a husband." Wait, that's not quite right. Malak, for one thing, does not have a good fortune, at least not the finanial kind. Still, she always felt like she had it all, though some would argue that point, especially distant relatives. But she just made tenure, upgraded to Yamaha bike with that bonus check, and most importantly, the adoption process has been finalized and she was the proud mother of the 15 year old Noor, after fostering for five years. But most people back home, all they can see is a established but single Muslim woman in her 30s in desperate need of a man, who doesn't put enough effort to get married, and selfishly chose to have a child on her own. Over the years, she's avoided potential blind dates like cooked meat on Eid morning, but deep down, she wasn't sure she could get past her belief that love and marriage weren't in her 'qadar' file. Still, nothing is ever as it seems, and when it comes to love, Malak knows better than most, that it is best not to be blind.

This article explores the emotional weight of expectations and the quiet pain they often carry. It reflects on how expectations are formed-softly, unconsciously, and usually from a place of care-and why they so often lead to disappointment. The piece delves into the reason expectations hurt more when they come from close friends and loved ones, where emotional intimacy and trust amplify every unmet hope. It captures how unspoken expectations, assumptions, and emotional dependence can slowly turn love into pressure and affection into resentment.
