A Seungmin fan fic about life and not giving up. This book follows a group of students who each have their own struggles in life some live with past trauma that gets coped poorly with others depression and a mind that is actively working against them. But they somehow find each other in the middle of it all causing an entirely new whirlwind of problems to evolve. Love and misfortune events lead to bad decisions. As the story goes on you'll discover more and more about the true meaning of staying there for others even when things get tough and ugly. PSA: I'm only using Seungmin's name and any other member's name for reference looks wise. This book has nothing to do with skz or being an idol. His character does not represent him in real life same goes for any of the other Skz members included in the story. I wrote some parts of every character based on my own observations of them though but take everything in this story with a grain of salt. Another thing to keep in mind when reading this book is that I live with a brain that runs 1000 miles per hour. So if the storyline doesn't add up in some places, that's why. ( but I try to edit and read through it regularly so it's still one cohesive story and not a bunch of different ones lmfao) Oh and English isn't my first language so sorris for any grammatical mistakes. ( that one was on purpose )

Little things

Sometimes, saving the one you love means destroying reality itself. Saimon Reilly is no legendary hero. He's a broken teenager with a traumatic past, whose panic attacks in a world of magic can prove fatal. His only anchor in a slipping reality is Karsilina - the girl who visited him in dreams for years before stepping into his life. But Karsi is not just the orphan from his visions. She is the missing princess of the Kingdom of Liston, hunted by shadows from her past. Within the walls of the magical university CHALRUN, amid aristocratic intrigue and ancient curses, Saimon must choose: stay on the sidelines or awaken a power he is not yet ready to control. When a deadly threat looms over Karsilina - one with no cure - Saimon uncovers a forbidden secret: time can be turned back. But the price of a single chance may be impossibly high. How far will a man go when his dreams become reality... and reality turns into an endless nightmare? ✨ Psychological Fantasy / Magical Realism ✨ Themes: Soulbound connection, Mental Health, Time manipulation. ✨ First book of the SiR Saga.

Raw. Poetic. Real.

Just rough drafts or final version of the things I write when I'm bored.

Warnings: none. Disclaimer: I've kept y'all anonymous but you know who you are. So if this ruffles your feathers, then keep reading.

Twenty-six-year-old Tori Williams catches her white fiancé in bed with her coworker three months before their wedding, discovering an eight-month affair that shatters everything she believed about love and her own worth. Devastated by betrayal and drowning in PTSD, she flees to Kyoto, Japan on a two-year MFA scholarship in design, desperate to escape the wreckage of her life in Atlanta. Arriving broken and barely functional, Tori navigates crushing loneliness, brutal culture shock, and hypervisibility as a Black woman in homogeneous Japan. She faces constant stares, microaggressions, and the exhausting work of existing in a country where she'll always be Other. Through traditional joinery workshops, she meets Ren Beaumont-a half-Japanese, half-French architecture student with devastating good looks and an emotionally unavailable playboy reputation, haunted by his own family wounds and running from intimacy through meaningless hookups. As they learn kintsugi-the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, making it more beautiful for having been broken-two shattered people begin to recognize themselves in each other's cracks. Tori must decide if she can trust again after annihilating betrayal, while Ren confronts whether he's capable of the vulnerability real love requires. Through cherry blossom seasons and autumn leaves, temple gardens and late-night workshops, they discover that healing doesn't mean becoming who you were before breaking-it means honoring the cracks while building something entirely new. This is a story about surviving trauma, finding home in unexpected places, chosen family that saves lives, and learning that broken and whole aren't opposites-they're the same thing, gold-filled and beautiful. ©️ Relle H

This poem was written for my father's funeral, created from a place of deep love, grief, and gratitude. It reflects everything he meant to me-his strength, his guidance, his quiet wisdom, and the way his presence shaped my life in ways words can barely capture. Even though he is no longer here, the memories he left behind continue to guide me, comfort me, and remind me of the incredible man he was. This piece is my way of honoring him, celebrating the love he gave so freely, and keeping his spirit alive in a world that feels so different without him. It is a tribute not just to the father I lost, but to the bond that will always remain, no matter how much time passes. This is for my dad, with all my heart.
