The Weight Of The World

The Weight of Their Gazes

Vesper, a high school student, carries the heavy burden of trauma and phobia, stemming from the multiple assaults she has witnessed and endured. Her past experiences have left her with debilitating Androphobia (fear of men) and Hephephobia (fear of being touched), making it impossible for her to interact with others, except for her childhood friend, Mia. Vesper's life takes a complicated turn when she catches the attention of the school's most eligible bachelor, Ethan, the son of one of the city's top five influential families. As Ethan's gaze falls upon Vesper, she is convinced that he, like all the others, has ulterior motives for getting close to her. Determined to maintain her distance, Vesper keeps Ethan at arm's length, despite his persistent efforts to win her trust. Meanwhile, Vesper's godbrother, Liam, harbors a deep, unrequited love for her. Liam's feelings are genuine, but Vesper's past traumas have rendered her incapable of reciprocating his emotions. Lyra, Ethan's childhood friend, is caught in the middle, as she secretly harbors feelings for Ethan, further entangling the complex web of relationships. As Vesper navigates her treacherous emotional landscape, she must confront the weight of their gazes – the suffocating attention from Ethan, the longing stares from Liam, and the concerned looks from Mia. Will Vesper find the strength to overcome her phobias and learn to trust again, or will the weight of their gazes crush her? *Genre:* Young Adult, Psychological Thriller, Romance *Themes:* Trauma, Phobia, Trust, Love, Friendship, Self-discovery *Target Audience:* Young adults who enjoy complex, character-driven stories with a touch of psychological suspense.

The world of sinners

In a modern world divided into two opposing continents, society is strictly compartmentalized. On one of the continents, underdeveloped and often despised, live the Sinners, beings endowed with powers born from their faults and weaknesses. Everyone carries the burden of their sin, materialized by unique abilities but often perceived as dangerous or unpredictable. On the other side, on a prosperous and technologically advanced continent, live the Saints, those who possess gifts derived from their virtues and purity. They too have powers, but they are highly revered and live in wealth and admiration. The story follows Élise, a young girl with an improbable destiny: born with the essence of both worlds, she is both sinner and saint. Endowed with powers from both continents, she is rejected by the Saints, who consider her impure, and feared by the Sinners, who see in her a dangerous anomaly. Lost between these two identities, Élise will be pushed on a quest to discover the truth behind the separation of the two continents and the origin of her powers. As she ventures further and further into these two worlds, Élise discovers secrets buried for centuries, revealing that the line between sin and virtue is much finer than we think. The powers she carries within her could either unite the two continents or destroy them. But to achieve this, she will first have to fully accept who she is, even if it means questioning everything she has been taught about good and evil. --- This synopsis introduces the conflict between the two continents, Élise's dilemma between her two identities, and a quest for the reconciliation of the two worlds.
