Young hearts

She falls for Uche, her cousin brother's best friend, without even knowing. Follow Julie through her first attempt at love. ... I watched him as he stood there, leaning on the bridge's railing and eating ice cream. The breeze wasn't disturbing his hair today because he had parked it all backwards, he looked cute, I smiled drawing in some breath, satisfied with how today was going. "What?" I heard him ask taking me off my thoughts. "Huh?" "You were smiling." "Oh. I was...." "Can I kiss you?" He asked looking at my lips. "Here?" I asked now, my heart beating hard again my chest, our first kiss could happen now. "Yeah?" He nodded, I could see his Adam's apple go up and down as he swallowed, I bit my lips, nervously. I smiled approvingly, almost getting up from the bench where I sat. "No sit." He said coming closer to sit next to me. The bench was quiet small so we were so close to each other. He leaned in and I could smell him more the closer he got to my face. His lips were now inches away from mine and the moment they touched I closed my eyes, I didn't know why but I did.

That Time Africa Met Asia

Waking up in a body that is more than five years younger than your original body is scary. Top that with being one of the few of your 'so-called race,' which hasn't been seen by the majority of the population, on this side of the world for centuries, really throws one off. Not to mention some kid is desperately trying to marry you for some reason. Memories of the owner from the past and future keep clashing with your modern memories and ideals, sending our mc into a whirlwind of a messy life I can't believe I was sent back in time?! I know I always wanted to go visit South Korea but this is ridiculous! I can't live in this historical era, especially with my skin colour!? If you can stand out in modern times in said country. What makes you think you will be any better in historical times?! And I don't know how to speak Hangul yet?! Aahh!!! Imagine being hated or feared for the colour of your skin... Now imagine going 500 years, give or take, back in time. I love these people but right now I really want to kill somebody's son! Living life multiple times, a continuous cycle that you keep living for some reason and can't break out of. Living only to die by your own blood brother's hands or your own foolishness is something truly pitiful. A boy trying to stay alive and live past twenty meets our mc who is trying to find her way in this world that paints her as a black sheep. She is his only ticket to survival, so he thinks. There is no guarantee but he's willing to try whatever it takes to escape his cruel fate of dying and coming back to life only to live in fear of being murdered in cold blood by the people you call family Hated, treated like garbage simply because your birth mother drugged and slept with a married man. She is the one who did wrong, why must he pay for her sins? The sins of the parents do not fall on the children, only the consequences. He's prepared to pay it in full. But if he must pay for his mother's sins, then so shall the son of the two executioners for condemning a once innocent soul...Now that he's back, all hell shall befall those who get in his way Three lost and lonely souls find their way to each other, one would say it is fate but when one is given the chance to change his and another is given a new life. Can we truly still say fate is one predetermined path that has been set out for you from the day you were born
