The World As We Know It Book Novels & Stories

ELIZABETH: The world was blurry when I first opened my eyes. My head throbbed like someone had taken a hammer to it, and a deep, dull ache settled in the base of my skull. I blinked rapidly, trying to force clarity back into my vision. It felt as though the air was thick, suffocating, and the room I was in was dimly lit, with shadows creeping up the walls. My arms felt strangely heavy, and it wasn't until I tried to move them that I realized they were bound. Panic surged through me like ice water in my veins.

“I keep my life separate by compartmentalising. Each area has a box. When I’m I a certain area of my life, the box lid is taken off and everything can fill my brain. When I’m done with that area, everything is neatly packed away and the lid is put on so it doesn’t spill into other areas. You fall into my social life. Please don’t try escape and jump into other areas.” “Okay.” He looks confused. “But I don’t understand why.” “Everything has a place and Everything goes in it’s place. If I don’t keep it that way things get messy. Very fucking messy.” “And if I don’t want it that way? If I want everything? All of you?” “Then we can’t be together.” I say seriously. He looks so conflicted. So… uns

Alex ordered, his face hard. "Well," he walked around Alex. "Time stood still and we were like spectators to what it was like before creation, a black, dark void of complete nothingness. The day was the first day of a new age. Everything has begun again. As before, we have the coming of a star, a comet to light our way, and a treasure, to unlock the unknown." "That is what is in the book," Alex said, still not satisfied. "Let's find it then."

I rolled my eyes inwardly at his words “Yeah, baby sister…’ I repeated while he got comfortable. "Let's come back to earth, I saw the book you were reading before I arrived." "What? Did you..." "Relax! I know you must have a lot of suitors now, and concerning the changes, you are having on your body, you will become curious but it's bad to read stuff about boys, and relationships, especially the type that have strong erotic scenes." I felt so embarrassed that, he had to see that scene where the bad boy was having intercourse with his innocent girl, although the book wasn't all that bad most people judge a book by its cover.

she widely smiles when she saw her little sister. "Sarah, there are both black and white in this world. These two colors are parts of our life. God puts us in a world of black and white for us to see everything, for us to realize that life isn't about happiness only." Sarah walks near to her little sister. "Don't worry. Everything ends with a happy ending. If this is not happy, then its not the end yet," Samantha said before disappearing from Sarah's sight. Sarah turned her sight to the sea. Realizations hit her. "You're right, sis. It is not the end yet."

"Why is it expensive?" "No, it was in high demand." Alkhun looks at the book. It was almost like his first copy of it. Red cover, with the name of it. Written in bold letters. Alkhun was fascinated by the book ever since he first read it. It was the myth of the west. The myth about a tower, once hidden deep in the west. Where it is located, the structure, the system, the connection between worlds. Everything was written in detail. It was suffocating how fascinating whats that book has to offer. Like a gateway through the other dimension, that gives you goosebumps.

The buildings, the clothing, literally everything without forgetting about the four-wheeled vehicle. Zayn had seen the 1979 Chevrolet C10 truck on his first day and that was what alarmed him the most. This was a myth, something he read in the books when he was a child. His mother would make sure he finished a book per day to prepare him for the throne which he would one day ascend. How can he forget the books about 'The other World'? 'The Other World' was a place that the wolves have read and heard stories about. A world where humans existed only with an advanced lifestyle that filled the pages of the books about this mythical world.

"Mellie wants to spend the day at the newly opened hot springs resort. I'll accompany her for a while and come back to the house this afternoon." I stared at the message for a long time before replying, "Didn't I tell you last night that I needed to tell you something?" A response came right away. "Don't make such a big deal out of it." That was all I needed to know that it was the AI program, not Edwin himself, that was responding to my messages again. I didn't bother answering. Instead, I got out of bed and started packing my things. There really wasn't much to pack anyway. Despite having lived in this apartment for five years, the things that were truly mine could fit into a single suitca

"They’re architects. They’re the ones who decide where the edges of the world go." Caius put a hand on the page, his touch leaving a faint, dark smudge on the ancient paper. "If they're the architects, and they're behind that portal... then our world is just a project they’ve left unfinished." I looked from the book to the darkness of the library, feeling a strange sense of clarity. For the first time, I wasn't just reacting to the Wastes. I was starting to understand that the Wastes were just a chapter in a much, much bigger book. And these monsters? They weren't the villains. They were the ones holding the pen.

Bella Who would’ve thought that “us against the world” would quickly turn into “me against the world, and against the memory you have now lost”? It will be the biggest lie of mine if I say that none of this affects me, that I have faith in our love and that you will remember me in no time. But I would just keep on pretending, not until the negativity inside me melt away. By the time I was walking straight into your room, hospital corridors echoed with the hurried footsteps of anxious visitors and the hushed whispers of worried families. Amongst them, is me, and my heavy heart filled with anticipation.
