Gabriel no recuerda lo que hizo. Pero su cuerpo sí. Desde que su padre murió, su mente comenzó a romperse en silencio. Pensamientos que no controla. Vacíos que no puede explicar. Y una presencia que no logra entender. Algo dentro de él está cambiando. Algo que toma el control cuando él desaparece. La mañana en que despierta cubierto de sangre, con un recuerdo incompleto y un grito aún resonando en su cabeza, Gabriel entiende que ya no se trata solo de su mente... Sino de lo que es capaz de hacer cuando deja de ser él. Y lo peor no es lo que ya ocurrió. Es saber que podría volver a pasar.

Esta historia trata sobre una adolescente Venezolana llamada María Victoria y como en un campamento de verano logró darse cuenta de que podía cambiar su visión sobre el amor. (una alerta para las personas interesadas en la historia. Hay groserías) Por decisión propia y apoyo de sus padres se fue de intercambio a un Colegio en Canadá, logrando conocer a amigos increíbles en un campamento, solo que no sabía que ahí conocería a Valiere, una chica que María la describe como sacada de una película Gringa, pero que pronto caería ante ella. Está historia la hice porque estaba aburrida de ver lo mismo y más que nada que los latinos sean secundarios. Abordé temas de gran importancia que se ven en la juventud, como miedos e inseguridades, pero más que nada como el amor se abre paso en las relaciones de los adolescentes y no solo romanticamente, si no de manera que afecta a todos a crecer emocionalmente y cambiar. Aunque es obvio que esta historia tendrá el foco de una mujer latina y más que nada amante del coqueteo, en este caso de esa mujer que la vuelve loca. ESPERO LES GUSTE MUCHO okyagracias 😛 -esta historia será en English and Spanish so please understand, cuz English isn't my first language but I will try to do my best. No estaré haciendo traducciones en la historia así que si quieren entender pregúntenme or go traducirlo yourself 💜 loveuall

Doce adolescentes han dedicado sus vidas a la perfección. Entre salones de ballet donde los pies sangran en silencio, gimnasios donde los golpes definen jerarquías, piscinas donde el aire se convierte en un lujo, y campos donde el esfuerzo se esconde tras sonrisas perfectas, han aprendido que el talento nunca es suficiente sin sacrificio. El ballet les enseñó control. Las artes marciales les enseñaron a resistir. La natación les enseñó a sobrevivir. El porrismo les enseñó a caer sin dejar de sonreír. Pero ninguna disciplina pudo prepararlos para lo que significa enfrentarse entre ellos. Entre rivalidades que nacieron años atrás, amistades que comienzan a fracturarse y sentimientos que surgen en los peores momentos posibles, sus vidas comenzarán a entrelazarse de formas irreversibles. El amor se convertirá en una debilidad. La lealtad será puesta a prueba. Y cada elección tendrá consecuencias. Algunos pelearán por orgullo. Otros por amor. Otros porque no saben hacer otra cosa que luchar. Este será un recorrido largo, intenso y peligroso, donde crecer significa perder partes de sí mismos, y donde no todos saldrán intactos. Porque hay batallas que no terminan cuando el cuerpo se rinde... sino cuando el corazón se rompe.
