Unexpected Stories

Seven years ago, a story ended on a bitter note. Or at least, that's what she thought. Years later, an unexpected encounter on a train brings the past rushing back-along with memories she had spent years trying to forget. Some stories end because people stop loving each other. Some end because of choices that cannot be undone. And some... were never told completely. A story of old wounds, unfinished conversations, buried truths, and two people forced to face a past they thought they had left behind. But what happens when the truth isn't quite the way you remember it? A little note from the author 🤍 First of all, thank you for giving this story a chance and clicking on it.

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman brothers -- a family that fits so well into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid -- Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one question remains: Which way will she land?

Spin off The Anhad Chronicles A young intern, still reeling from the sting of betrayal, wanders the quiet streets after learning her boyfriend has been unfaithful. The night feels heavier than usual, her thoughts tangled and directionless, until a faint sound breaks through her sorrow-a soft, fragile whimper carried through the still air. Drawn by instinct more than reason, she follows the sound to a small, dimly lit mandir. There, tucked near the steps, she finds a newborn boy, barely weeks old, wrapped in a worn cloth, his cries trembling against the silence. She hesitates, her own heart still cracked open, unsure if she has anything left to give. But something about him-so helpless, so alone-refuses to let her walk away. What begins as a chance encounter on her loneliest night becomes something far greater. Between long office hours, quiet breakdowns, and uncertain choices, she finds herself caring for a life she never expected to hold. The child slowly becomes more than a responsibility-he becomes her anchor, her unexpected reason to keep going. In saving him, she may just find a way to save herself.

Years after leaving Philippine Science High School Main Campus, Sheena Marie Ballesteros returns for an alumni gathering expecting the usual reunion rituals: old jokes, career updates, group photos, and the strange experience of seeing former classmates as adults. Then Christopher Laurence Marquez walks in. Everyone remembers Christopher as the quiet one: brilliant, careful, composed, and difficult to read. He was the kind of batchmate people respected from a distance, someone who always seemed certain of where he was going even when the rest of them were still figuring themselves out. Years later, Christopher is still unmistakably himself, with the same precision, quietness, and habit of listening before he speaks. Yet as the afternoon goes on, Sheena begins to notice small differences she cannot quite name, enough to make the version of Christopher in her memory feel incomplete. Between familiar teasing, old stories, and conversations shaped by the years they spent apart, Sheena and their batchmates begin to reconsider what they thought they knew about one another. What starts as an ordinary school reunion becomes a quiet look at memory, adulthood, and the gap between the people we remember and the people they become when life continues beyond our view.

It was only supposed to be one reckless night. One night to drink until I couldn't feel the pain anymore. One night to forget the heartbreak, the anger, and everything that had been weighing me down. But when I woke up the next morning, there was a marriage contract sitting on the bedside table. At first, I thought it was a joke. Then I saw my name. And right next to it was the name of a man I had never met before. The contract said it clearly-we were already husband and wife. Even worse, I couldn't remember any of it. How did I end up married to a stranger?
