Side Hustle Jobs For Teens

The Other Side.

Luna Montgomery, a brilliant Harvard graduate with a promising future, leaves behind the familiar confines of Chicago—including the comfort of her protective twin brother, Jace—to forge a new life in New York City. Amid the bustling energy of the metropolis, she secures an internship at a prestigious law firm, buoyed by the unwavering support of her loyal friends Mia, Eleanor, and Josh. Yet beneath the excitement of her new beginning lies a growing personal turmoil: her long-time boyfriend, Logan King, has grown disturbingly silent. Logan, a 24-year-old heir to King Enterprises—a sprawling, multi-billion-dollar conglomerate with interests ranging from music and film production to technology, fashion, and even professional sports—is under immense pressure. Born into a complicated family where his father, Richard King, openly favors him despite the tangled web of siblings born out of different circumstances, Logan faces a damning ultimatum. His recent disastrous expansion in the UK has exposed his inexperience, and during a bitter board meeting, his older siblings—Henry, Emily, and Jane—mercilessly criticize him. With his future hanging by a thread, Logan is given a stark choice: deliver decisive results within two weeks or watch as the project is reassigned to one of his more experienced siblings. Caught between the relentless pressure of corporate expectations and the aching void left by his absence from Luna’s life, Logan embarks on a series of heartfelt gestures to reconnect with her. From sending her a bouquet of roses accompanied by a note proclaiming her “priceless” to orchestrating impromptu rides that hint at his return, every attempt is an effort to bridge the growing gap. Their secret, passionate reunions—marked by intense, intimate encounters at his family estate—offer moments of profound connection, yet are constantly overshadowed by the demands of his legacy and the unresolved tension between duty and desire. As Logan grapples with his professional failures and the sting of public humiliation, Luna struggles to reconcile her love for him with the emotional abandonment she has endured. Their relationship, once a sanctuary of passion and support, becomes a battleground where every unanswered call and unexplained absence deepens the chasm between them. In the midst of corporate warfare and familial intrigue, Luna and Logan must confront the painful reality that love alone may not be enough to conquer the forces that seek to pull them apart.

As their con deepens, she must confront the ultimate question: Can she open her heart to love and trust again? ****Exerpt**** Delilah’s eyes darted to the marriage certificate again, the official seal glaring back at her. Her fingers itched to tear it apart, to make this nightmare disappear. But deep down, she knew that wouldn’t change anything. “I don’t remember,” she whispered, more to herself than to him. “I don’t remember any of it.” Blake nodded as if he had expected this reaction. “That is expected. You had a lot to drink last night.” he fished out a phone from the back pocket of his trousers, opened it. “Here, this is us celebrating, after we got married last night,” he said, showing her a picture. Delilah’s breath caught in her throat as she stared at the photo. It was indeed her. “How?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “I don’t remember any of this.” “It was a wild night,” he said softly. Perhaps she had married Blake because he was wealthy. That would be the only logical reason for her to make such a blunder. There was hope, she thought, as she clung to the possibility of salvaging something from this disaster. Turning to him, she forced a smile, “Is this your house? Are we in your house?” She asked, looking around the bedroom. Blake shook his head, “No. This is a hotel,” he said, and she nodded. “I see. It looks like quite an expensive hotel,” she observed, “What do you do for a living?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady as she searched his eyes for any hint of affluence. Blake hesitated, his confident demeanor faltering for the first time. He looked away, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m... in between jobs,” he stuttered, avoiding her gaze. Delilah’s heart sank, disappointment crashing over her like a wave. “In between jobs?” she echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief. Blake seemed to sense her dismay. “I know it doesn’t sound great,” he said quickly, trying to reassure her. “But I’m working on a few things. I just need a little more time.” “You’re jobless,” she muttered to herself as reality sunk in. “How did you pay for this room? For the wedding bands?” She asked, and he winced. “I didn’t. You did,” he said, and she collapsed on the bed. (PS: Cover photo isn’t mine. Credit to the real owner)

On the Other Side of the Mirror

Have you ever wondered what's on the other side of the mirror? This is not just another sappy coming-of-age story about school and first crushes. It is a brutally honest story about bullying and misunderstanding. About violence that adults often fail to see. About fear that eats you up from the inside. About the struggle – the daily struggle that thousands of teenagers face. It is a dark, poignant story about how lonely you can be in a crowd, how imperceptible the dramas of their children are to adults, and how thin the line between reality and nightmare is. Maja is an ordinary girl who struggles with hate and a lack of understanding every day. She doesn't fit in. She is different. She sees more, feels more, but she can't tell anyone. Sometimes she doesn't even understand herself. Lina – her imaginary friend – has been with her since childhood. At least, that's what the adults say. Because Maja knows that Lina is not imaginary. But if that's the case... who is she really? It is a coming-of-age story, but in a completely different light. A light that barely shines through the darkness. About how easy it is to disappear – and how difficult it is to be noticed. Adults say, “It's just a phase.” Children are silent because no one listens to them. But what if there are things that cannot be ignored? This is a story about what lurks in the darkness – and what happens when the shadow starts to look in our direction. A story in which anyone who has ever felt invisible can recognize themselves. Do you dare to look into the mirror?

Love at Side

Kim Na Ri and Han Chae Soo were inseparable, their bond forged over years of being neighbors and the shared laughter of their families. For as long as she could remember, Chae Soo was her constant—a protector, a confidant, and perhaps something more. But everything changed seven months ago, when a tragic accident left Na Ri scarred, not just physically but emotionally. Since then, Chae Soo has been pulling away, his once-warm gaze now cold, his presence a ghost of what it used to be. Enter Lee Yul, the enigmatic new guy with an easy smile and a heart seemingly too kind for this world. Unlike Chae Soo, Yul doesn’t flinch at Na Ri’s scars—he embraces her for who she is, becoming the friend and comfort she didn’t know she needed. But his arrival stirs something in Chae Soo, something he’s kept buried beneath the walls he’s built around himself. As Na Ri tries to navigate the confusing distance from Chae Soo and the blossoming connection with Yul, secrets begin to unravel—secrets that might explain why Chae Soo is so determined to keep her at arm’s length. Is it guilt? Fear? Or something deeper, something he’s too afraid to admit even to himself? In this tale of love, friendship, and hidden truths, "Love At Side" invites you to uncover the reasons behind Chae Soo’s silence and the role Lee Yul plays in Na Ri’s life. Sometimes, the person you’re meant to be with is the one who pushes you away—and the one who stays might not be as perfect as they seem.
