All of us needed our own saviour. It could have been in any form. A person. A talent. An outburst. A paper. Laughing. Smiling. Walking forward. Breathing. Writing.

And some of us needed someone to save us from ourselves. Our minds. Our own demons scattered in the depths of places we don't even want to imagine. Perhaps, it was what she was looking for.

The depth within.

----------------------------------------------------


But little did we know, the heart was nothing but a sponge. It absorbed all kinds of feelings--pain, pleasure, depression, joy.

Once absorbed, never stained.

"You're unbearable!" He kicks her with utter contempt. "Please tell me where I'm wrong, causing you discomfort was not my intention," she said crying, causing him to hit her against the ground again. "Do you think you can live with good intentions? Didn't you have all the time you wanted to change and learn? You still dare to ask for more!" He yells at her with hatred, he blamed her for being the one will cause a woman to be beaten; He didn't want to be that kind of man. However, what he lived with her caused him to bring out what he hated the most about himself from within. -Forget it love- said a woman who was next to her- it's not worth it- this dog was supposed to be her friend, she was supposed to support her just like she did; however he managed so that he and she hated each other and thus be able to steal it. The woman on the floor does not know how much she was framed and harmed by her naivety, nor did she know that this was the beginning of her misfortunes. Because of that woman she did not stop suffering, wherever she went she suffered verbal or physical abuse and everything was orchestrated by this woman; she didn't know until she was about to faint. "Why?" She asked this unarmed woman without knowing why she hated him so much. She never did anything to hurt him. She just laughed viciously without answering him, she didn't have to waste her time with an insect; leaving La to die imprisoned in the house where she was kidnapped. "Answer me!" She got up from her bed screaming "Eh? This looks like my room; Did I reincarnate myself in the past?" She ran to the bathroom just to see that her assumption was correct. She thanked the heavens for this second chance by promising that she wouldn't be fooled a second time.

There are stories that have endings and then there are the ones that refuse to close.This is one of those stories. This is not a love story-not in the way people expect. It is not the kind that wraps up neatly with a bow, not the kind that promises forever.It is a story of love, yes, but also of loss, of longing, of uncertainty. I have met her again. And I do not know what that means. Time passed, reshaping the love we once had into something unrecognizable. And now, here we are-two people who were once inseparable,now standing on opposite sides of something we cannot define.She asks if we can reintroduce ourselves. As if love, history and heartbreak can be rewritten with a simple hello. But how do you introduce yourself to someone who once knew you better than anyone?How do you explain who you have become when you are still figuring it out yourself?How do you stand in front of the one person who once made you believe in love and pretend you don't still feel it in your bones? This book is my answer. It is not just a reintroduction. It is an unraveling. A confession of the things I should have said, a reckoning with the things I did wrong, a desperate attempt to understand what love means when it no longer fits into the shape you once knew. It is a confrontation with my flaws, my mistakes, my fears.A deep dive into the parts of me that love could not save. This is not a story of reunion.It is a story of recognition.Of asking myself if I have truly changed, or if I am just learning how to carry my love differently. And in the end, maybe this is not just my story. Maybe this is your story too. Maybe you have loved and lost. Maybe you, too, have wondered if love can find its way back,or if it was never meant to return. So, allow me to introduce myself again. Not just to her, but to you.To the person I once was, to the person I have become, to the person I am still learning to be. I do not know where this story will end. But for now, this is where it begins.

*Short Story* It is difficult to stay with the people who look down at you like you are some kind of disease. It hurts when they don't want to acknowledge you for the good things you have done. It hurts when your family rejects you only because you are quiet and weak saying you are good for nothing. Annie Ryan was nothing but a quiet, innocent teenager waiting for her mate to save her from the dark hell she was living in. She had only one dream, she wanted to feel loved, she wanted someone to tell her that they care and would love her no matter what happens. But little did she know that she was just another unfortunate soul whose mate had different plans. Caden was an young alpha. He had everything but where everyone was eager to meet their mate, he wasn't. He had already given his position of alpha female to his girlfriend. But after she left him, he turned cold and ruthless. But when he met Annie, his mate, one thing was clear. He wanted nothing to do with her. He asked her to leave but when she declined, he paid her no attention like she never existed. Annie was broken. Her dream was just a dream. Every night she closed her eyes, she realized she was going to die alone with no one to care. She wanted to end her life but not before setting everything right, not before her destined alpha mate finds his happiness. Caden didn't know what he was missing until he lost it. Maybe that's how life works. Maybe that's why it is called cruel.

How easy it is to let go of things that the heart wants to stay? Is only love enough to heal the brokenness we carry with us?
