2008 ősze. Dia tizenhat éves kamaszlány, a maga módján lázad, dacol, főleg az egyházi gimi szerinte buta szabályai és otthon az édesanyja szerinte túlzott szigora ellen.Széthullott családjának egy része (a testvérei) Londonban él. A lány egy durvább otthoni veszekedés után úgy dönt, meglép otthonról, célba veszi a csodálatos világvárost, hiszen ha már lúd, legyen kövér. De nem a testvéreihez megy, hanem egy MySpace-en összeszedett angol fiúhoz, akit soha életében nem látott.

"You don't need to pretend, Zoya!" Logan shouted over the radio noise.

Zoya's heart ached as she tucked in her lips, wishing she could turn back time to when she was a teenager. She was baffled by how the only man she had ever loved could cause her such heartbreak, one that couldn't be diagnosed under an X-ray machine.

In the past ten years, Zoya had invested her time and emotions into the marriage, neglecting her own needs and desires.

Her parents had never supported her relationship with Logan, advising her to focus on her studies when she was just 16. But she had threatened to run away, using her status as an only child to force them to accept her early marriage.

After graduating high school, Logan convinced her to become a full-time housewife. Initially, the marriage was perfect, with Logan taking her on dates, shopping sprees, and vacations. He swept her off her feet, and she abandoned her plans for further education.

However, as Logan became a successful business tycoon, their time together became limited. Whenever she complained about his late nights, he would wrap his arms around her and give her a gentle squeeze, silencing her protests.

Now, Zoya felt a tiny bump in her stomach, followed by a sour pain, but she remained silent. "I can go on a three-month trip," she bargained, her voice discreet but frail.

Logan's response was a dirty smirk, and he leaned forward, staring deeply into her eyes. "My sweet pretensions, Zoya, I don't need you to think for me or go on a vacation."

Zoya felt rejection crawling into her shattered heart, wondering if their love boat had crashed long ago. She remembered her father's fury ten years ago, her mother's attempts to pacify him, and how her father had blocked all communications with her after the wedding.

"Can't you give us a try?" she asked, her voice sounding like a plea.

Logan's lips moved closer to her ears, his words barely audible. "Taste changes, people move on." He shrugged expressively, and Zoya saw his mouth move but couldn't hear properly due to her own emotional deafness.

She crawled on the floor, begging him not to end their marriage, desperate to save it. Logan stepped on her hands, grinding on them in circles, and Zoya swallowed the pain.

He stumbled back, spat on her injured hand, and threw divorce papers on her lap. "It's over, Zoya. Keep the house; I don't want to be stuck in the disgusting memories you've forced on me over the years. Sign that, and I'll have someone collect it in the morning."

With that, Logan turned and walked out of the house, leaving Zoya shattered and alone.

"Only the weak show mercy."

A classic tale of the undead taking over the world.

In modern-day Singapore, the Nightwalkers have risen and are wreaking havoc everywhere on the small island Iris calls home. Stuck in a public library overrun by zombified schoolmates and teachers, a motley crew of teenagers and adults have to do whatever it takes to reach their Safe Haven before humanity falls.

≿ thiswas hell. and they made it through alive. but there was another level they still had to face≾

If only they knew how loud my thoughts were; how I can barely fall asleep at night because my mind is racing at a mile a minute.

See, that's the thing about not being able to talk and not being able to relieve some of the communicative pressure building inside of your head. It piles up after a while, and all of those unspoken thoughts fester until they explode in a different way.

Headaches render me to my bed all day and my hand cramps from trying to write down what I'm thinking so people don't get bored and leave before I can form a sentence.

But for all of the difficulties, I may face in my silent days, it doesn't affect my story or me.

2 people Roman and Anjolina are in different classes. They're total opposites and they barely know each other. Will these two opposites attract or will they fizzle out and realize a mistake?
