。 ₊°༺♡༻°₊ 。 Hello, my lovelies! 。 ₊°༺♡༻°₊ 。
          
          FINALLY... my exams are over!! (╥﹏╥) ♡
          
          To be honest, exams are somehow the time when my brain decides to come up with the best story ideas... or even completely new plots. (。•́︿•̀。) It's like the inspiration waits until I'm the busiest. (╯︵╰,)
          
          Last year, I made the mistake of giving in to those ideas and posting stories during my exams. As happy as it made me to share them with you all, it ended up affecting my exams more than I expected... (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)
          
          So this year, I made a promise to myself. No matter how many ideas popped into my head or how badly I wanted to post, I would wait until my exams were over. It honestly wasn't easy... (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ
          
          I missed talking to you all, reading your comments, and sharing little moments here. Every time I got a new idea, I wanted to run here immediately... but I kept reminding myself that you would still be here after my exams. ♡
          
          And now... I'M FINALLY BACK!! ヽ(>∀<☆)ノ ♡
          
          Thank you for waiting for me, for being so patient, and for always supporting me. Your love means so much more than you know. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)♡
          
          I have so many ideas saved up, and I can't wait to share them with all of you!! Let's make lots of memories together again! ♡(。>ω<。)♡

。 ₊°༺♡༻°₊ 。 Hello, my lovelies! 。 ₊°༺♡༻°₊ 。
          
          First of all, I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has continued supporting this story despite my absence. ♡
          
          I know I've been gone for quite a while now—no updates, no replies to comments, and barely any activity from me. I completely understand if some of you are feeling frustrated, disappointed, or even a little annoyed, and honestly, I don't blame you. (╥﹏╥)
          
          I'm truly sorry for disappearing without any explanation. Usually, I try my best to reply to comments and stay active whenever possible, but the past few weeks have been incredibly hectic. Between presentations, group activities, assignments, quizzes, projects, reports, practicals, and countless deadlines, things have become overwhelming. ಥ‿ಥ
          
          And this week in particular has been an absolute nightmare. I've barely been sleeping—sometimes only around 4–5 hours a night, even on weekends. At this point, I genuinely feel like a zombie wandering through college. ( •́︿•̀ )
          
          Unfortunately, it looks like next week will be just as busy, if not worse. But please don't worry too much about me! I'll manage somehow. (ง •̀_•́)ง
          
          All I ask from you all is a little patience and trust. ♡ Your support, comments, votes, and kind words mean more to me than you know, and they're one of the reasons I keep pushing forward even during stressful times.
          
          I promise that I haven't abandoned any of the stories, and I will do my absolute best to upload new chapters as soon as I can. Thank you for sticking with me and for being so understanding. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
          
          Sending lots of love and virtual hugs to every one of you! ♡
          
          ╭───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────╮
          Thank you for waiting for me.
          I appreciate you all more than words can express. ♡
          ╰───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────╯
          
          With love,
          Your exhausted but determined author ♡ (。•̀ᴗ-)✧

Thought to check on you. You haven't updated your first book since Sept. Hope everything's ok. 

Shiningsunny_23

@RayaHyatt That's so sweet of you ♡♡ Actually I wanted to take a break on that book and think again since the upcoming chapters are one of the most important ones of the book and I can't mess it up (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)(˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) Plus I was writing a new book -"Flirting With Fire" (。•̀ᴗ-)✧ . If you have time you can try it, i did be super glad to hear from you.♡♡

          Quick little life update since I only have a 5-minute break… where was I? Oh right! So there was a party at my house on Sunday, and I spent basically all of last week preparing for it—running around, organizing everything, making sure it all came together perfectly.
          
          And then *yesterday*? Total cleanup mode. ૮(˶╥︿╥)ა The aftermath was REAL. I feel like I’ve been picking things up, rearranging, and trying to get everything back to normal nonstop.
          
          Because of all that, a bunch of things I had planned for this week kind of got pushed around, so now I’m trying to catch up and get back on track. It’s a bit chaotic right now, but we’re managing… slowly but surely.
          
          Anyway, that’s my tiny update for now! I’ll share more once things settle down a bit ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡. ⸜(。˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

。 ₊°༺♡༻°₊ 。 Hello, my lovelies! 。 ₊°༺♡༻°₊ 。
          
          You asked. I delivered. (And maybe… I delivered a little too much (。•̀ᴗ•́。) )
          
          Chapter 18 of "Flirting With Fire" is officially OUT NOW (≧▽≦) ♡
          
          But here's the thing…
          
          I love you all so much (like, disgustingly much (´。• ᵕ •。`) ♡ ) that I couldn't just give you a chapter and call it a day.
          
          Oh no, my darlings.
          
          I did something dangerous. (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
          
          I slipped a sneak peek at the end of this chapter. Something juicy. Something that might make you scream, throw your phone, or both. (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄)
          
          (You're welcome. And also… I'm not sorry. (。•̀ᴗ-)✧ )
          
          So go. Read. Fast.
          
          Because I can't wait to see your reactions. (ノ≧∀≦)ノ

          I know I’ve been *super* MIA lately—but I promise I had a real reason this time (╥﹏╥) Between exams taking over my life AND getting sick at the same time (literally the worst combo ever), I barely had time to breathe… let alone post.
          
          I was running on like 3–5 hours of sleep max (and honestly… mostly 3–4 (T▽T)). Safe to say, I was not thriving lol
          
          BUT!! I’m finally free now (≧◡≦) ♡ which means two things:
          
          1. I’m going to hibernate and catch up on all the sleep I missed (つ .•́ _ʖ •̀.)つ zzz
          2. I’m coming back with posts and continuing my story for you all (♡˙︶˙♡)
          
          I’m gonna *try* to post every day to make it up to you (no promises… but I’ll do my best for you guys (。•́︿•̀。))
          
          Missed you all sooo much (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ stay tuned!! ♡

            But knowing I have people like you waiting and supporting me?? That's what's gonna get me back to work faster (♡˙︶˙♡)

。 ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ 。 Hello, my lovelies! 。 ₊°༺❤︎༻°₊ 。
          The new chapter of “Flirting With Fire” is finally out!  (≧◡≦) ♡
          I’ve tried my best to make this chapter fun, interesting, and a little intriguing too (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ. I really hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
          
          Just a small request from me (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) — please make sure to read Chapter 16 before starting Chapter 17, otherwise the story might feel confusing and you may miss some important moments of the plot.
          
          I can’t wait to hear your thoughts and read all your lovely comments (♡˙︶˙♡). Your support and feedback always mean so much to me!
          
          Happy reading, my lovelies ♡(˃͈ દ ˂͈ ༶ )
