Death Taxes And A Shotgun Wedding A Tara Holloway

Two wealthy families have come together to unite their offspring, whom they consider incongruent, through marriage, in the belief that it will lead them to a more compatible path. The children, unaware of their parents' plan, find themselves at odds; the husband, Malayika, uncomfortable, chooses to spend time with his friend as usual, ignoring his new spouse. The woman, for her part, wants to change the situation so that they can get to know each other and try to establish a closer relationship. However, she faces significant challenges: her husband's friends persistently insult her and push her away, and her husband lacks the courage to even look in her direction. Since she did not actively resist this marriage from the beginning, will it eventually turn against her and become her nightmare? Will she give up her desire to know her husband and share his life? Or will she adopt her husband's approach and continue to live a life of acquiescence until she reaches the age of divorce specified in their contract? Are you prepared to explore the intricacies of the story and unravel its ultimate conclusion? Will the husband eventually embrace his wife's efforts to foster intimacy, or will the wife in question abandon her efforts and allow her husband and his friend to do as they please? Or will extraneous factors emerge and contribute to a more complex and nuanced narrative? Join us as we delve into the evolution of their story and uncover its ultimate denouement.

But I don't want to think that I'm the main character. The best way to avoid the possible death flag is to run away from every character in the game. To hell with the romance! But will I be able to avoid my fate to meet with the other characters?

Life can never be simple. When a boy starts a supposedly "new" life at a secondary school, he hopes to forget the past and becomes anew. All he ever wanted was a peaceful high-school life. But life finds its way to completely flip his world upside down. Now he has to deal with crazy situations, ranging from embarrassing himself in front of hundreds of people to falling in love in the most random moments like every romance story out there. Life for this boy really turned anew. **This "novel" is a combination of the authors experience throughout high-school and his delusions he always had in his mind in which he wants to pour it out in this story** DISCLAIMER (and authors note) This is my first time ever writing something big and ambitious. Just writing to get a hobby or something. AND IT WILL SUCK. MY WRITING IS ABSOLUTE TRASH. I HAVE NO UPLOAD SCHEDULE SO CHAPTERS WILL BE PUBLISHED RANDOMLY Honestly I just wanted to put all my wishes and delusions of what I wanted highschool to be like for me. And I thought that I might as well share some of the experience I had in my actual highschool life so I can have a mix of reality and imagination in this story. Guess we'll see how that'll work out and also see how far this story will go. I hope I can at least finish it. I don't expect anyone to read it. After all, I can say that this is like my diary and memory book for me to read back and smile at the experience I went through during highschool. Making it public in case anybody wants something to relate to I guess :P
