Novel & Cerita Real Friends Book

"Our tiny apartment that we need to upgrade because I'm pretty sure my Olympic stipend means we can afford a place with an actual bedroom." "Separate from the kitchen? Scandalous." "I know, right? We're moving up in the world." They found an apartment the next week. Nothing fancy, but with two rooms and actual closet space. Riley set up an office for Pack Truth. Samuel had space for his training equipment. It felt like a real home. Like a place where they could build a future. The book released in September. Riley was terrified. She'd been interviewed about it, done a small book tour, prepared as much as she could. But seeing it in stores, seeing her and Samuel's faces on the cover, reading

Something irreparable, but coverable: with smiles, with pretty looks, with good gestures. She doesn't lie, she hides the truth. She doesn't say anything, and she yells a lot in complete silence. She is the absolute image of the controversy. The good, which must be bad by nature. The beautiful thing, that it is completely broken. The strength, which has weaknesses. The quiet girl with books and loud music, who goes out to a party to get high. The promiscuity, that she does not like to kiss. The life that is not real. The life that is invented. The life that must be lived out of obligation. The fake life she invented in her dreams to survive.

Ashley says, and I stare at the cover, the book, I can't wait to get lost in it. "This one is In Another Life, two realities playing out of a woman's life. The book follows the life of a woman, in alternating realities, how one choice can change the arch of our lives, who we are, who will be. This book is for people like me who have always felt the need to know if there's another universe, anotrher reality, and who we are there." She says, handing me the book. "After I Do, this is a masterpiece, one of my favorite books by her. It shows the problems in marriage, how everything is not happily ever after, hoe marriage takes work, and I'm not ashamed to say I'm reading it for the fifth time."

"Aww a mini Lance. That's so adorable. And what's the book about." "About a girl falling for someone unexpected. The same guy that told her on her worst day that, one day a stranger will walk into her life and will flip her world upside down. And it will make her realize as to why it never worked out with anyone else but him." I smiled while looking at him in the crowd. "The book is called, My Personal BodyGuard. Based on true events." I smiled. Once my interview was over there was a meet and greet. I walked over there and there was a big line. It lasted about 2 hours.

All applauded as I felt encouraged. The question and answer session started as my fans few other media reporters kept on asking about my book and related things to my book. "Your book says it is from a real event. Can we know the same?" It is one of the questions which I liked more. "Yes, it is true. From a real life couple whom I admire. I can't disclose as much as I would choose to. I know this pair closely. I have admired them so much since my early teenage that I couldn't hold myself back from writing something. Thus, there was a time I remember asking them can I write about them like changing almost everything. I got the permission gladly, I started writing and with years passing became

I was a stickler for rules. When I was in elementary school, we were supposed to vote for class president, but the teacher simply appointed the principal's daughter instead. Hence, I followed the school rule that whoever received the most votes would win and brought all 42 students to the principal's office to hold a proper vote. After I started working, my boss handed me a 1,500-dollar invoice and told me to claim 15,000 dollars in expenses. I told him that wasn't allowed under company policy, but he said that, in this company, the boss' word was the only rule that mattered. "You need to learn to be flexible," he claimed. "Otherwise, the company may as well replace you with someone more obe

On our fifth anniversary, Jerome Walsh's childhood friend, Nora Blunt, comes back from overseas. "I'm back! Happy anniversary!" she laughs. Jerome's face lights up. He slips an arm around her waist and fusses over her, taking her coat, fetching her slippers, and pouring her a glass of juice. Meanwhile, the candles sit forgotten beside our fifth anniversary cake. After dinner, Jerome hands Nora a gift. It's a giant stuffed toy with "Happy Ten Years, Nora and Jerome" stitched across the front. That's when it hits me that the anniversary he's celebrating isn't ours. It's theirs. Nora teases him with a smile. "I can't believe you still remember. I thought you'd forgotten all about us now t

Sometimes the people you call your own are not truly yours. The people you trust the most can sometimes become the ones who hurt you the deepest. I used to believe loyalty was permanent. I believed friendship meant protection. I believed marriage meant commitment. But reality had proven me wrong. Very wrong. Most times, the people you call your “real ones” are not always the right ones in your life. The real ones are different. The real ones are the people who stay beside you during both the good times and the difficult times. The real ones appear when everyone else disappears.

The deal was dead. The fake was over. We were real – publicly, privately, no asterisk, no arrangement, no fine print. Just two people who'd chosen each other through scholarship threats and family fractures and a word on a whiteboard and every other thing the world had thrown at us. I should have been relieved. And I was – for about five minutes. Then the real relationship started and I discovered something nobody warns you about: the fake version was easier. The fake version had rules. The real version had Rhys.

For real? I looked at my daughter—six years old, all curious eyes and boundless energy—and realized this was one of those moments parenting books couldn’t prepare you for. Callan stood in the doorway with Liam on his hip, both of them watching me. The finished book sat on the table between us like a living thing. I pulled Ellie back onto my lap and wrapped my arms around her small frame. She smelled like strawberry shampoo and the outdoors. “Yes, sweetheart,” I said softly. “I’m really happy. Not pretend happy. The real kind.”
