Echoes Stories

Some stories are born from echoes that cling to you long after they should've faded. Aminatu Shehu has just published her first debut novel MALKA- A NOVEL. To the world it's a story, to her boyfriend Ibrahim Bello Turaki, it's a gift. The very first copy, signed and handed to him with a smile. He reads with admiration and pride, never once connecting the girl's bleak distant world to the woman he plans to marry. Her life, her poise, her quiet strength feels worlds apart from the fifteen year old bride on the page. But truth has a way of arriving without warning. And when it does. Ibrahim must confront a reality that rewrites everything he thought he knew about Aminatu. Can their love survive the secrets she kept to shield herself? Will he love her more for the life she overcame or feel betrayed by the past she never shared? Echoes is a gripping emotional novel about resilience. A story of love tested by truth and healing born from courage to finally be seen. ‎

A man's unwavering love for his childhood sweetheart, who marries another, fractures his life into two possible destinies: one of tragic sacrifice, and another where he is ultimately found and rewarded with a more authentic love, a love that truly sees him. Two endings - two possibilities!

Four years after the storm, Arcadia Bay still breaths. June moves from Seattle to a town she only knows through rumors, headlines, and half-told stories. A place rebuilt from ruins, quiet on the surface, heavy beneath. What she doesn't expect is how the past lingers, in old lost spirits, in unspoken connections, in feelings that grow where they shouldn't, and in truths waiting to be uncovered. Because some storms don't end when the sky clears. And some places carry echoes that were never meant to fade. Welcome to "Echoes of Arcadia - After the Storm" the things no one told us.

Poetry is echoes from heart A reflection of innermost art.

"Is it to much to ask to just have a simple life!" "No, that went out the window a long time ago Kiera" I shrug and sit down, why did this have to happen to me. I want nothing more than to tell them everything, to end the lies and secrets that have haunted me for so long But that would be impossible, because my life's not simple and that's that And telling them wouldn't change what happened, it would just endanger them That's why I have to keep going, I have to be whoever they tell me to be and whatever they tell me to do Because, that's my reality | started | 19.10.18 |

Recent events have been strange, to say the least. Chaos is wrecking the lands - not loudly, not with fire and armies, but like a quiet sickness crawling through everything we know. I've started writing again. Not because I have something to say - I rarely do. Rather, because everything has blurred into something haunted yet so familiar. Despite the storm that is slowly brewing, there is also beauty. A shape...always near. So charming with her brown eyes - like a sail in the wind. I should go to sleep. (It's my first story, and because my native language is not English, I had to stumble around and research a lot of words and ways to describe something. That is why some places might be strange. It is mainly for me to explore writing and just fulfill some ideas, so I have no certain plans about this. Romance is not the main thing here and it might go in a different direction than planned. Criticism and reviews, or comments are totally welcome, unless it's something that is meant to be harmful rather than constructive. Lastly, thanks for reading and have fun I guess, I don't guarantee anything. :)))

Memory has been set free. After unlocking the Archive and allowing forgotten histories to return to the world, Elara Thorne leaves her village behind with only a journal and a purpose: to find the places where silence still rules. Across distant lands, people are beginning to remember-songs long lost, stories buried by time, and truths that powerful institutions once tried to erase. But not everyone welcomes the return of the past. Hidden in the shadows is an ancient order known as the Keepers of Silence, guardians of secrets who believe some memories are too dangerous to exist. As echoes of history awaken across the world, they begin their hunt for the one person responsible. Elara only wanted the truth to live again. Now she must decide how much the world is ready to remember. Because the deeper she travels into forgotten history, the more she begins to uncover a secret so powerful that even the Archive once tried to contain it. And some memories were buried for a reason.

Alara had never quite fit in. Her senses had always been more attuned to the emotional frequencies of the world around her. Unlike others, she could hear the whispers of love - the unspoken words, the distant yearning, and the echoes of hearts breaking. It was a gift, but also a curse. The feelings of those around her often drowned her in a sea of conflicting emotions, making it nearly impossible to find peace.

In a dimension beyond time and space, known as the Drift, lies a realm where forgotten memories, lost dreams, and the echoes of unfinished lives converge. This fragmented world is home to Kael, a wanderer with no memory of his past, haunted by faint murmurs that guide him through this mysterious landscape. One night, the whispers lead him to an ancient, crumbling structure that reveals a powerful voice-the Echo. The Echo tells Kael that he is the key to restoring a shattered world, but to do so, he must journey beyond the veil to a place where all echoes converge. As Kael steps into a swirling vortex, leaving the Drift behind, he embarks on a perilous quest that will determine the fate of countless worlds.

What if...? What if Josuke fell for a new girl who he knew almost nothing about? What if she fell for him too? What if neither of them knew about the other being a Stand user until something drastic happened at school? Post Part 4--so 1999 to 2000 This a collection of short stories that I've written that's more along the lines of slice-of-life/romance/wholesome fluff. There will be some more adventurous shorts in here too, but I hope that their interesting enough to be enjoyable! Since this is a personal AU, I will add a page of important notes/rules that exist in the AU that will hopefully explain things a bit more and will also try and post/organize the shorts in chronological order, so some parts may be in a reorganized order. Enjoy!!

In a world where the sky weeps silver rain and the rivers whisper forgotten names, there lies a forsaken city-Arothar-where the cursed and the abandoned are sent to live out their days. No one knows what truly happens within its walls, only that no soul has ever returned. Tayen, a quiet yet fierce young woman, was cast into Arothar at the age of eight, accused of carrying a forbidden gift-the ability to hear the last thoughts of the dying. For years, she has survived in the city's shadows, learning its secrets, listening to the voices of those long gone. But when a stranger arrives-a man who does not belong, a man whose past has been erased-Tayen is forced to confront the terrifying truth: Arothar is not a prison. It is a waiting room. And something is coming to collect its due. As she unravels the mystery of the forsaken city, Tayen must make a choice-flee and forget, or fight and remember. But some truths are not meant to be known. And some debts are paid in blood.
