She had been bullied by the stereotypical queen bee kinda girls from her class. Somehow She survived them and made friends who really mattered but her self- confidence had been shaken cause of then. She always thought she was ordinary. But then god arose her from the dirt. She found out her purpose, her passion and most of she met the person who changed her whole world.

If only it were that easy. Violet pulled her from her thoughts with a hum, nodding along as if she’d thought about it a little more and agreed. “Yeah…” she sighed, shrugging as if it were hopeless. “I guess you’re right... Things around here always tend to get worse.” Even when it didn’t feel possible. Even when you did everything right - prayed and put in the hard work - it got worse. Just like clockwork, whether you deserved it or not. They most certainly did not.

She sat across from me, gently tracing the rim of her cup with her fingers, never lifting her eyes. Finally, she softly said, "From now on…we shouldn't do that again." I nodded. I had no words to argue with her. She smiled faintly, though the smile did not look as natural as before. "Let's just treat that time as…an accident." An accident. The word left a bitter taste in my chest. However, I knew she was right. For a while after that, we truly drifted apart. We spoke less often and only met when it was necessary. Reason slowly took control again, and life seemed to return to its proper course.

I exhaled slowly, my thoughts racing now. This wasn’t just a case. This wasn’t just a patient. This was something else. Something deeper. Something is wrong. I didn’t like it. Not one bit. Without looking at Aiden, I spoke. “What exactly happened to him?.”

"That’s more like it." But even as we sat there, already thinking of the next move, one thing stayed lodged in my head. We didn’t know who it was. We didn’t know what they wanted. And worst of all? We didn’t know when they’d strike next. The final bell rang, a loud, echoing chime that signaled the end of another school day. I shut my book with a quiet thud, letting the weight of it rest in my hand for a moment. My fingers traced the edges of the worn pages—The Lucifer Effect, a twisted psychological study on how power and circumstance could turn ordinary people into monsters. Fitting. I had always been drawn to books like this, not just because they were interesting but because they confirme

And now, it was about to get worse. ***

“Things?” “Yes,” he hissed. “I don't call them people. I don't even call them animals. They are things, unfeeling, destructive things. And as I was saying, those things don't play by the rules. You can’t bribe them, You can’t negotiate. They have power and influence all around the fùcking globe.” “If you kill one, ten more come crawling like cockroaches. They feed on blood, burn everything in their path, and leave only chaos in its wake.”

I had always been good at strategy for organizations and slow to apply it to myself. She wrote: I learned that the worst thing and the best thing can be sequential chapters of the same story, and that the best thing does not cancel the worst one, and the worst one does not nullify the best. Both are true simultaneously. The damage is real. The life built from and alongside the damage is also real. Holding both is not contradiction. It is accuracy.

Tonya made a moan of disgust and walked towards the small kitchen to get her chores done for the brief moment Thaddeus was out of the house. Thaddeus slept round the clock. It was a dip of fresh air for Tonya, this was the only moment she got herself to read. She always imagined living in a fancy house with a massive archive of books in her library. If she had the power, her house would be just a huge library. She smiled at herself as the thought crossed her mind once again. It was always difficult, with everyone around, the constant greetings and chatting and so on, the noise from down the street, cars honking and the occasional noises of people fighting or shouting about one thing or the o

“Zoe spent nights in the rain pursuing Greg back then. Now, she’s just trying to climb up the ranks! She’s just a low-level employee from a humble background. She’s not fit to be your Donna!” A photo slipped from her fingers, its yellowed pages showing me drenched in rain, hair plastered to my face, stubbornly staring at a single point, looking utterly miserable. Greg’s eyes widened sharply, and his fingers curled unconsciously into a fist. “Loving someone isn’t a mistake.” Julian’s voice rang out, steady and calm.
