Isabella, seventeen, grew up in a single-mother household, where fairy tales were her escape. She dreamed of a storybook romance — meeting her prince charming, getting married, and raising little princes and princesses in a grand castle.

William, eighteen, came from what appeared to be a "happy" family. But behind closed doors, he despised the very notion of love. He loathed how it blinded people, pulling them away from reality. To him, marriage was often a hollow commitment — a decision made out of obligation for the sake of children, or the reckless belief that youthful love could last forever.

When Isabella and William cross paths, they form an instant friendship. For a while, it’s enough. But soon, Isabella finds herself falling for the one person incapable of loving her back. Desperate to move on, she searches for love elsewhere. When that fails, she devises a plan — one that will either help her forget William or make him believe in the same kind of love she’s always dreamed of.

This is a short piece I wrote for school as a freewriting exercise.

~1000 words

Arifvio Giraldo (Vio) is a freshman in the System Information 1 department who has never experienced love before. One day, at the dormitory cafeteria, he sees a beautiful girl with a calm and captivating aura—Sheren Yang from System Information 2. Vio feels something different, but since he has never fallen in love, he doesn’t understand his own emotions.

With the support of his close friends—Arnold, Fariz, Syauqi, Rafli Ramadhan, Rafly, and Cliff—Vio slowly starts to approach Sheren. However, his journey is not easy. There is Hendrik Tanuwijaya, a wealthy senior who also has feelings for Sheren, and Cindy Aurelia, Vio’s childhood friend who suddenly appears and tries to interfere in their relationship.

Will Vio finally realize his feelings? Does Sheren feel the same way? And how will they overcome the various challenges on campus that bring them together in this sweet, heartwarming love story?

Megan, a struggling student, has to navigate the magically-induced pitfalls bringing a genie to high school causes in order to keep her life from spiraling completely out of control.

Sitting at the bus stop late one night, Megan comes across an old bottle. When she opens it, a kid her own age appears, ready to grant her whatever she wants. So, she wishes to be popular – what could go wrong?

As Megan's life takes a drastic turn for the better, she gets a little cocky, agreeing to let the genie come to school. Before she knows it, he's worming his way into every part of her life: he's in all her classes, friends with her brother, and getting invites to hang out with her friends. But once she starts spending time with him, Megan finds she has a new problem. Despite her best efforts, she's starting to see him as almost a friend. But can she really trust him?

Not a villain. Not a brooding love-interest. Just a normal, high school vampire. As a vampire, Anna knows about hunting. She knows how to find isolated prey, how to put people at ease, how to leave no trace behind. What she doesn't know about is high school. Students don't pay attention, her English teacher repeats the same lesson for days on end, and why does she seem to be the only one not bolting for the door when the bell rings? With one friend who's obsessed with vampires and another who's not quite what she seems to be, Anna has to learn the rules of high school fast if she wants to remain undetected. As attacks throughout the city increase, suspicions mount. Anna tries to go unnoticed, but when her newfound friend sets out to prove the attacks are being caused by a vampire, Anna is left to wonder if her dark secret will be discovered. And what will happen to her if it is?

I've written a lot in the past few yrs, and quite a bit abt madness and death over the past year (my mental health is shitty). This isn't gonna b some sob story abt my dead friend. I swear. so...yeah.

When super-powered soldiers will stop at nothing to see them both caught, it becomes clear they won't be able to run forever. As the past threatens to enslave them, Sacet faces a grave choice...

Will she risk both their lives to fight back? Or serve her old masters once more to keep Eno safe?

Dedication:

For giving me the power to dream,imagine and journey into the unknownI dedicate this story to my parents,Gary and Raylee

After discovering that she and all the rich have been poisoned, Athena Wright must embark on a trip to a safe haven with her worst enemies.

This blog allows for the personal expression of thoughts, feelings, and emotions, incorporating this writer's imagination rather than simply conveying information.

I learn innovative ways to use words, organize my thoughts, and appeal to an audience through in-depth exposure and experience in poetry and short stories.

I write pieces that I hope inspire others to get out there and do the things they love. I want to inspire others to be happy and good people and explore the world of writing for themselves.

This blog is Book 2!

Hope you enjoy reading!

Just a short story I wrote to practice and ease myself back into writing again after not doing it for a long while. I can always add more if people are interested. Otherwise, it's just a one off/short story.
