“You don’t have to know everything. Just one thing.” I looked at her. She touched the rim of my juice glass with one finger, a gentle gesture grounding me. “What does your heart say? Not the trauma.

Emma shook her head. “You won’t fail.” “How do you know?” “Because you survived the worst,” she said, squeezing my hand. “And you’re still here.”

Are you blushing?” “No. Why… why should I be?” “I don’t know,” Maya teased, stepping closer. “I just know whoever put that words on you is special. Look at you blushing all over.

I said as I came into realisation. “Selfish? You? Lol don’t give yourself so much credit” she joked. “You can never be selfish…I’m a selfish person so I would know” she added. “No, don’t say such bad things about yourself. You are far from selfish” I said, not just to comfort her but also because it was the truth that I knew.

He was so handsome yet kind, I miss his s

“You took all the good genes and left me frail and weak!” Emma’s lips curled in disdain. “Is that what you’ve told yourself? That’s why you encouraged Dad to lock me up? You’re pitiful, Ever. You’re broken.” Ever rolled her eyes, waving her sister’s words away. “Spare me the lecture. I came to let you out, didn’t I? You should be thanking me.” But Emma’s eyes burned with defiance. “I’ll remember this,” she said, her voice steady. “And one day, you’ll understand what true strength means.”

She thought of the quiet, ordinary moments she’d always overlooked—the smell of rain on her jacket, the taste of bitter coffee at dawn, the ache in her legs after long runs. Life wasn’t perfect preservation. It was imperfection. Fragility. The possibility of forgetting, because that made remembering matter.

And I choose me.” She lifted the device high, fingers trembling, and pressed every button at once.

Nick: What are you doing? Emma: Sitting on a park bench. Nick: Alone? Emma: Yes. Nick: Are you okay? Emma: I'm okay. I'm just... being. Nick: Being? Emma: Existing. Without a purpose. Without a schedule. Without someone needing me. Nick was quiet for a moment. Nick: How does it feel? Emma: Strange. Lonely. Free. Nick: That's three things. Emma: I'm three things. Nick: You're a thousand things, Emma. You just never let yourself be them.

She spent a couple of minutes talking about other things and for the closing remarks. “I will like to thank everyone who supported me this far in realizing my dream and for never stopping to believe in me. You all are the real MVP’s” Emma said. She realized someone in the audience had their hands raised. They probably had a question. A microphone was handed over to the person. “What inspired this novel? And also what makes the novel stand out considering there are already so many other love stories written out there.” Emma smiled. “Thank you for that question,”

“If I thought it’d be bad for me, do you really think I’d be choosing to quit?” Emma shifts her body until she lies fully on top of me. Her feet kick in the air as she gets comfortable lying across my torso. “First, don’t use the word quit. It takes away from the years—well, actually, I guess at your age, decades—you spent dedicated to the sport.” She winks at me, probably trying to soften the blow of the age comment. “Did you just call me old, rebel?”
