Many times I have seen people struggling to talk with strangers or in public places. This was due to anxiety and nervousness that happens unintentionally in our body. We can’t control them but have to overcome them. I came across the word “Glossophobia” in 2014 when I was working on how to overcome stage fears. I have seen my friends and myself struggling to talk with strangers or to speak in public. There are cases where I have acted speechless. This is where the idea arrived and I have created a character “Abhirath Srivastav” who cannot talk with strangers or in public places due to a phobia called “Glossophobia”. The Character Abirath Srivastav does not represent any real life personality, it is solely of my imagination. The story “ The only hope” is a love story set in the style of 1994. The story is about an orphan boy who suffers from glossophobia; he can't talk to strangers or in public places. He finds it hard to stay in an orphanage and escapes to find a better place in his life. He meets a Christian girl in an unknown village and becomes her best friend. He speaks to her, but not to any other villagers. Things are not, however, what was expected. Half of the villagers migrate to another place for work, and they take the boy with them. The boy has to leave his favourite place and his only best friend. After 12 years, however, he meets her and here how the story takes its turn.

Hari ketika aku mengambil foto pernikahan, putri angkat di keluargaku melepas tudung pengantinku dan berkata dengan suara yang keras: "Adik, bukankah kamu putri angkat keluargaku, kenapa kamu kesini?" "Hari ini adalah hari yang aku mengambil foto pernikahan dengan Felix, sikapmu yang seperti ini bukankah akan mempermalukan Grup Setiawan?" Jika ini sebelumnya, aku pasti sudah kabur sambil menangis. Tapi kebetulan, aku sudah hidup kembali. Aku menampar wajah Maudy: "Apa hakmu untuk berbicara denganku? Siapa kamu, berani-beraninya mengambil foto pernikahan dengan Felix?" "Menurutmu apakah kamu mampu memikul tanggung jawab atas nama Grup Setiawan!"

I blinked behind my glasses, stunned and confused. "Did I...do something wrong? If so, I'm sorry..." "No need to apologize," Helen cut in, frost edging her cultured voice. "You've done nothing wrong, Tristan. Except be complacent." I frowned, feeling cold dread creeping through my veins. "What do you mean?" Vivian released a short, harsh sigh, as if disgusted by my ignorance. "Must we spell it out? This marriage clearly isn't working anymore. You lack ambition. I've simply outgrown you at this point. I'm doing what's necessary and best for myself by letting you go." Her icy words slammed into me like a physical attack. I stared at her lovely face I had once adored so much, now cold and remote, trying to make sense of what she was saying. Letting me go? Was she saying... Linda held out a crisp legal envelope to me. Hands shaking, I accepted it from her polished nails. The contents confirmed my worst fears - divorce papers, all drawn up and ready for my signature. My eyes scanned the conditions outlined within. The terms were heavily skewed in Vivian's favor. "This...says I would get nothing," I murmured in stunned disbelief. "No alimony, no remaining rights to shared assets or property..." "Naturally," Linda replied coolly, inspecting her manicure. "You contributed absolutely nothing of value to this marriage financially. Therefore, you should leave with what you brought to it - nothing."

Pada hari aku ketahuan bukanlah putri asli dari sebuah keluarga yang kaya raya, si anak asli menyerbu ke dalam rumah dan menusuk perutku beberapa kali hingga pada akhirnya aku tidak bisa memiliki anak sendiri. Tunanganku sangat marah, begitu pula dengan orang tuaku. Mereka dengan tegas menyatakan tidak akan mengakui anak itu sebagai putri kandung mereka. Untuk menghiburku, tunanganku melamarku secepatnya. Orang tuaku juga menulis surat pernyataan pemutusan hubungan keluarga supaya aku bisa segera sembuh dari cederaku. Kemudian, mereka mengatakan bahwa putri yang tidak mereka akui itu melarikan diri ke luar negeri dan menerima karma dengan dijual ke Myano Utara. Aku percaya pada informasi itu. Enam tahun setelah aku menikah, aku justru melihat putri yang tidak diakui dan seharusnya sedang hidup menderita di Myano Utara itu. Dia sedang bersandar di pelukan suamiku dengan perutnya yang membuncit sambil mendesah. "Kalau saja enam tahun lalu aku nggak marah dan melakukan kesalahan seperti itu, kamu juga nggak perlu menikahi Sisilia." "Untung saja kamu dan orang tuaku memihak padaku. Kalau nggak, aku pasti sudah dipenjara gara-gara si pembohong itu. Dia pasti nggak menyangka aku selama ini hidup di bawah radarnya dan sedang mengandung anakmu." "Begitu anak ini lahir, kamu tinggal cari alasan untuk mengadopsinya dan jadikan putri palsu itu menjadi pengasuh buatku selamanya." "Terima kasih atas kerja kerasmu selama ini, Anton." Sorot tatapan penuh kasih sayang dari putri yang seharusnya tidak diakui itu membuat tunanganku, Anton Raksa, tersipu. "Jangan bilang begitu. Hanya dengan aku menikahinya, kamu baru bisa menjalani hidup tanpa rasa bersalah." "Asalkan kamu senang, semua yang kulakukan itu sepadan." Ternyata suami yang kukira benar-benar mencintaiku itu membohongiku selama ini. Orang tuaku juga membohongiku demi melindungi putri kandung mereka. Baiklah, aku tidak menginginkan mereka lagi!
