Coming Of Age Short Story

If we psychologically damage an individual beyond repair, what will be the consequence of it? We all have a limit to the amount of mental and psychological stress we can take. Once the stress exceeds the limit, we’ll reach our breaking point. What happens after that is a mystery no one can solve, or is it? Lydia Johnson faces a similar situation. She is a complex young woman who faces a downfall stemming from the mental and physical abuse of her father and siblings, the negligence of her mother, and a chilling secret. From abused to loved, to abused again--that’s how life is for Lydia. Her family taught her only one lesson: emotions are for the weak and the weak don’t have a place in this world. With each kill, Lydia atones for the loss of her innocence by getting rid of another emotion and also rids the world of someone undeserving of her love and forgiveness. What lengths will she go to, for revenge, and prove her resilience? Will she ever be able to live her life like a normal person again? Or will she continue killing everyone until her own death?

Liam Smith, an orphan, has had a dream for years; to become a star of the ever famous Lotus Pond Entertainment company. However, when he meets the famous and attractive CEO of the company, notorious playboy, Kain Jones, things take an unexpected turn. Kain is unfriendly, rude and even rejects Liam’s wishes of joining the company! Kain is not at all what Liam had expected his childhood star to be like at all! Disappointed, but not put off, Liam refuses to give up on his dreams of becoming a star and vows to do anything to get that chance, including doing whatever Kain demands of him, but just how far is Liam willing to go? "Your fervent, misguided sense of entitlement is stunning," Kain snarls at me. His nose twitches in indignation before a slow, cruel smirk crawls over his lips. He mouths the word 'anything', repeating what I had just said before leaning in and taking my chin into his fingers, brushing my lips with his thumb as he says in a low growl, "why don't you show me...”

"Anyway, I'm Z. And I'm sorry for your blindfold.

Sa loob ng isang gabi, nakasama at naangkin siya ng isang misteryosong lalaki na nagpakilala bilang "Z." Subalit sa halip na mapoot sa lalaking nakakuha ng kanyang pagkabirhen, namalayan na lang ni Calley na nahulog ang loob niya rito. Minahal niya ang hindi nakikitang lalaki at umasa pangakong babalikan siya nito at magpapakilala. Sa paglipas ng panahon, kahibangan mang maituturing, ngunit pinaghawakan ni Calley ang pangakong iyon ni Z. Lalo pa't ang isang gabing namagitan sa kanila nito ay nagbunga. Hanggang sa napadpad si Calley sa Coron at doon nakilala niya ang magkapatid na Zack at Zayne. Naging malapit ang dalawang lalaki sa kaniya, lalo na sa kaniyang anak, dahilan upang paghinalaan niyang isa sa mga ito si Z na ama ng kanyang anak. Isa nga kaya sa magkapatid ang lalaking matagal na niyang inaasam na makita? Ang lalaking minahal niya sa kabila ng nakapiring niyang mga mata? Or will she open her heart again for a new love?

My boyfriend refuses to accompany me to the airport to pick my mother up, but he later rams into my car from behind in my new Maybach. He looks at my secondhand car and wraps an arm around the young woman beside him, who looks frightened. He says, "It's just a rusty old Volkswagen Beetle! So what if I've crashed into it? I can afford to pay for the damages!" The crowd praises him for being handsome and rich. With his back to them, he warns, "This is the woman my mom wants me to date. I'm just playing along for her sake. Don't make things embarrassing for me." I nod understandingly and tell the young woman, "Since you like collecting trash so much, you can have both him and the car. I'll have my lawyer send you the bill." Now, my boyfriend panics. He looks devastated as he hangs around outside my company all day, begging me to give him another chance.
