The Last Time I Saw My Mother

Last-Time Returner

[Synchronization rate has been set to 0%. Warning: Death is now permanent. The tutorial will begin.] A screen that looked like it came out of a game appeared before Ilyin Gray after being transported to the insides of a mysterious structure known as a Grand Ark. Just moments before, he watched as the world he once knew fall apart from the sudden invasion of otherworldly creatures before being whisked away to an unknown location. Fearing the worst for his homeworld of Arden, he progresses through the tutorial and escapes the structure, only to find that the ruined landscape he expected was nowhere in sight. Furthermore, the humans of Arden not only managed to recuperate, but over a century had already passed since then!? [Welcome back, returner Ilyin.] A message from the only divine watching over him confused him further. "I was reborn several times? But I don't remember a thing..." A story about a returner whose memories of his previous lives are lost, and his chances for do-overs are gone. As he adapts to the society that left him behind, Ilyin uncovers his past and the secrets of the world, all while overcoming dangerous threats along the way. Will his path end in greatness, or will he repeat the failures of his forgotten history? Author's Note: Hello! This is my attempt at my first ever work with little prior experience writing novels. I doubt anyone will see this, but let's see how this goes. Feel free to criticize! I'll try my best to learn and improve.

I KILLED MY MOTHER TO BE PERFECT

James Conor, a seemingly perfect 12-year-old prodigy with a hidden, dark side. Raised by his single mother, Rebecca, James has been pushed since childhood to excel in every aspect of his life. His mother's obsession with perfection has molded James into a brilliant but emotionally detached young boy who struggles with severe OCD and a latent psychopathic nature. He lives in a world of control, counting numbers obsessively, repeating actions, and hiding his true feelings behind a façade of normalcy. James harbors an intense, secret crush on Charles, a classmate who remains oblivious to James' feelings. When his affection for Charles is met with rejection and cruelty, James’ fragile mind unravels. Consumed by a need for control and fueled by years of emotional neglect, James spirals into a path of violence, culminating in the brutal murder of Charles. But this is only the beginning. As James' manipulative behavior escalates, he grows increasingly confident in hiding his crimes from the world. However, his mother starts to suspect something is wrong, and when she confronts him about his disturbing behavior, James spins a web of lies and deceit. As the tension between mother and son mounts, Rebecca begins to fear for her own safety, but it is already too late. Silent Patterns explores the disturbing psychology of a child who is pushed beyond the limits of his innocence, revealing the cracks in a seemingly perfect life. As James battles with his need for control, he becomes a reflection of the trauma and manipulation his mother inflicted upon him—leading to an explosive and tragic finale
