MasukBetween Goodbye And Becoming
Country: AurivelleCity: AuremontAlvaraI woke up the next morning… but I couldn’t bring myself to get out of bed.Everything that had happened over the past six months pressed down on me all at once…too heavy, too loud to ignore.From being selected… to arriving at this institute… and now, leaving it.But most importantly… I wasn’t leaving as the same girl who had walked in.I was going bCountry: Aurivelle City: AuremontAlvaraI sat at the table beside the glass wall, my laptop open in front of me.Videos.Pictures.Clips of us… everywhere.Different cities. Different moments. Different versions of the same story.I hadn’t had time to really look at any of it until now.A knock came lightly against the door before it opened.Isabella stepped in, her own laptop tucked under her arm.“What are you doing?” she asked, walking toward me.“I’m just going through this,” I said, glancing up at her. “I really haven’t had time before now.”“I saw some of it this morning too,” she said, pulling out a chair. “Why do you have your laptop out this early?”She shrugged slightly.“I needed Leo to fix something on it.”“Has he?”She nodded. “Yeah.”Her eyes drifted around the room for a moment before she smiled faintly.“The houses look exactly the same.”“They are,” I said. “That’s the whole point.”She let out a small laugh.“They really meant it when they said mirrors.”I smiled.
Country: AurivelleCity: Auremont AlvaraI woke up slowly.Not from noise.Not from light.Just… from the quiet.A different kind of quiet.Not the familiar stillness of Cressford where the street sounds eventually found their way in no matter how early it was.This was deeper.Sealed.Like the house was holding its breath alongside me.I lay there for a moment, staring at the ceiling.High.Clean.Unfamiliar in a way that didn't feel wrong.Just… new.My room was still dim, the curtains softening the early morning light into something gentle and gold.I turned slowly, taking in the space around me.The wardrobe.The sitting area by the glass.The stillness of everything exactly where I had left it.It wasn't a dream.I was actually here.I exhaled.Then I pushed myself up.The hallway was quiet as I stepped out.Soft lighting guided me downstairs, steady and warm, like the house already knew where I was going.And then…I smelled it.Before I even reached the bottom of the stairs…S
This Is Ours Country: AurivelleCity: AuremontAlvaraAuremont didn’t feel new to me anymore.But it didn’t feel like home either.It felt like a chapter I had already survived… now being revisited from a different page.The van moved steadily through the city, and I watched it all with a quiet calm.The glass towers.The long, polished roads.The familiar sharp elegance of a place that never really paused for anyone.Beside me, Isabella leaned slightly toward the window.She was quiet.But I knew she was taking everything in.Behind us… the real reactions were happening.Leo was practically glued to the window.“…Nah,” he muttered under his breath. “This is not a city. This is a movie set.”Mom turned her head slightly.“Leo,” she warned softly.“I’m serious,” he said quickly. “Look at that buildin
Quite Goodbyes Country: AurivelleCity: CressfordAlvaraMonday didn’t rush in.It arrived slowly… like it understood exactly what today meant.I woke up earlier than usual, but I didn’t get out of bed right away.I just lay there.Staring at the ceiling.Listening.The house was already awake.Drawers opening.Closets shifting.Soft footsteps moving from room to room.Mom.Of course.I let out a quiet breath and pushed myself up, running a hand through my hair before standing.For a moment, I just stood there… looking around my room.Everything was still the same.Just as it had been eight months agothough not entirely untouched.This house…our first real stop after everything fell apart.Our quiet beginning in Cressford.And today…We would start taking pieces of it apart.When
What Comes Next Country: Aurivelle City: Cressford AlvaraI checked myself in the mirror and smiled.I was wearing high-waisted wide-leg jeans in dark indigo, a fitted white crew-neck top tucked neatly in, and a camel trench coat layered over it.I sat on my bed and slipped on my white leather sneakers, then added my small gold hoop earrings.My hair was packed into a loose French twist.I picked up my cream bucket bag from the bed.Then I stepped into the sitting room.It was just Mom there… Leo was probably in his room.A moment later, Isabella knocked and walked in.And just like that, we left.The moment we stepped outside…The air felt different.Cooler.Softer.Late September had settled in quietly, wrapping everything in that gentle in-between feeling autumn always carried so effortlessly.The trees along the street had sta
Two Days To Auremont Country: Aurivelle City: Cressford AlvaraMorning didn’t arrive loudly.It crept in.Soft light first… slipping through the curtains, spreading gently across my room like it wasn’t sure it had permission to be there.I blinked slowly, still half caught between sleep and awareness.For a moment, I didn’t move.Just lay there.Staring at the ceiling.Listening.The house was quiet.Not silent… just alive in a quiet way.Distant sounds from the kitchen drifted in.The faint clink of utensils.Soft movement.The rhythm of someone already awake.Home.I inhaled slowly.The air here always felt the same.Familiar.Safe.But today… it carried something else too.Something I couldn’t quite name.A weight.My eyes closed for a second.Then
Behind Closed Doors Country: EldoriaAdrian“Adrian, how could you not know? She’s been missing for days, and you have no idea?” My father’s voice cut through the silence like a whip, sharp and unforgiving.“How was I supposed to know? I have a lot of things to take care of. Was I supposed to drop
Silent Departure Alvara I opened my eyes again, more aware than before. The pain was still there, but it had dulled into something heavier , a thick ache buried beneath exhaustion. My limbs felt weighted, as if gravity had chosen me specifically.Instinctively, my hand moved to my stomach.Even
The Silence After Alvara I woke up slowly.Not the sharp kind of waking where panic jerks you upright, but the heavy kind ,like my body was dragging itself back from somewhere deep and dark. Everything felt distant. My limbs were heavy, my head throbbed, and there was a dull ache spread through
Blood And Silence AlvaraIt had been three months since I left my mother’s house, and my belly had grown enough that there was no longer any pretending. What was once a secret tucked beneath oversized dresses had become a quiet, undeniable truth, round, heavy, and always present. A life I carried
