Romans & histoires A Fault In Our Stars

Tiny diamonds formed a ring of stars, cradling a silver crescent in the center. My breathing stopped. I had sketched that design when I was fifteen, in the corner of my old sketchbook. The day Ryan confessed to me, he had pointed at that drawing, his voice shaking. “Jane, one day when I have money, I’ll make this for you. “Stars always stay beside the moon. “Just like I’ll never break my promise to you.” Now he had finally made it. He just put it on someone else. On screen, Wendy touched the pendant at her collarbone and smiled shyly.

I probably would've fallen for it as well if I hadn't been aware of the truth. Snorting, I looked her in the eye and said crisply, "I'm just as curious to know why you're willing to sacrifice your reputation to spin such lies." I glanced to the side and gave my assistant, Isaac Fuller, the signal. He got the message and swiftly connected the USB drive, which had been prepared in advance, into the massive screen that hung in the center of the hall. Alice was still putting up an impassioned defense. "It's one thing for you to fall in love with another woman, Luke, but how can you treat me like this? Just what did I do wrong? Why must you ruin my reputation like that?"

Mia sat at the edge of the bed in her little sister's hospital room and nervously tapped her fingers on the bed. Diane had noticed the familiar habit and decided to enquire, hoping that Mia would see her as someone who she could confide in and not just her baby sister. “Is everything alright, Mia?” Diaje asked, her voice still hoarse from all the months of not speaking. Mia immediately stopped the movement with her hand and turned to Diane, "Yes, of course. I am fine,” she said with a small smile.

“I was really eaten up with guilt yesterday. I never expected you to have such a bad temper. I’ve always treated Joel like a brother. Don’t be mad anymore, okay?” Mandy said, wiping at tears that were not there. “It’s still my fault though…” “If I’d known my limits, you wouldn’t have left. Mrs. Xanders, even though I was so guilty I almost jumped off the rooftop, please don’t blame…” “Are you done?” my mother cut her off with a sneer. “Girls these days really don’t learn anything good at such a young age. You just constantly put on an act that you’re a pure and innocent girl among the boys.

Zelest and I ate our food in silence and soon after we went through our project paper together, we set our bedrolls and slept, the stick—our makeshift idea of boundary—between us. The image of Zelest swimming burned itself into my skull. But so did that goddess-forsaken note. One of you won’t leave this camp alive. Pangs of pain and panic jolted me awake. My entire body ached with pain. I rolled over toward Zelest’s side of the tent and my heart sank. He wasn’t there.

she didn't care about what I felt. I sat there on the cold, wet floor as Dad's words echoed again in my ears again. A humourless laugh then left my lips. I laughed falling on my back as I looked up at the starry sky. I deserve this.....this is all my fault....all my fucking fault. Karma indeed happened. I married Melissa breaking my Faith's heart and now the same thing happened again but only with me. My Faith got married...why...why???.

whether it's in the past, present or future, we know we'll have each other. Everything that has happened... everything, was after all because of our sweet mistake.

Astra kept on hearing Ray's voice in her head as he continuously told her that it was her fault. "You make men like me become like this, you are the reason why I turned out this way. I did not want to be like this, it is all your fault." Astra could hear the voices over and over again. The more she thought about it, the more she figured she deserved it. It had to be her fault, her parents hated her, they liked Charise instead, even in school she was dumped for other girls. Nicholas, Jared and all the other men went through hell because of her. She lost her child, and the other one had cancer. She had to be doing something wrong, even her friend was hurt because of her.

Chapter 14: A New Lead Eltan Storm "I feel so bad, Faith. I kind of feel like it's my fault. Especially since it happened the day after I turned him down. Maybe I was too harsh on him?" "No, Candy. It wasn't your fault. It was just an accident, not a suicide." I listened to the conversation between Candy and Faith while leisurely sipping my drink at the bar counter. Today was Faith's first day back at work after her week off, and Candy was expressing her sorrows to Faith.

Tonight was a shit show. I can't stop thinking about Faith. I don't know her well, but I feel like she could be an asset to our dance troupe. Mark and Theo had been right about her inability to loosen up. She seemed insecure on the stage, wary, like if she messed up it would be the end for her. It was clear to me that Faith had demons, ones that were so severe she took to hiding instead of facing them. But as my friends already knew, we all had demons among us.
