There was a spark of writing creativity, a spark only. Then another. And another. Nudges to think about something unexpected. This is a collection of my mini stories, some of them even shorter than that, inspired by writing prompts found in various places.

They were created in an environment free from pressure and deadlines, allowing me to capture the thoughts that flowed into my mind after reading the scene or the prompt. Regular updates are not guaranteed. Cover image is from pinterest.

Kami saling berpelukan erat, berusaha mencari sebuah kenyamanan di tengah badai. Tapi rasanya tidak ada yang cukup untuk meringankan rasa sakit yang aku rasakan.

Tapi sekarang, rasanya semua itu tersapu oleh hujan yang tiada henti. Saat air mata terus jatuh, aku bertanya-tanya apakah kami akan menemukan jalan kembali ke cahaya. Tetapi pada saat itu, yang aku tahu hanyalah bahwa aku bersama dia yang aku cintai lebih dari hujan. Dan pada saat itu, aku tahu bahwa apa pun yang terjadi di masa depan, aku akan selalu memilikinya di sisi ku untuk menghadapi ini bersama...
