Emica Kana is 18 years old. She has always loved writing stories., They were her escape from reality. She always wished that a man would come and save her like they always do in the stories.
Well, she got her wish.
Emica entered a small writing school that was near a river. Her friend had joined her. But, the teacher had an odd vibe around him. Emica became a little scared of him. She especially became scared when the teacher started to pay more attention to her. One day, when she runs from him, she falls into a world of adventure, risk, and abnormalities. 
But, her teacher is what scares her more than this new world. What secrets and schemes did he use to get her here?

Basically I pulled a couple of pictures from one of my favorite comic!

I have been awed by the mystery and the powers of the elements since I was a kid. I think I ought to give credit to all the anime cartoons that was available in our time, especially when it dominated the Philippine Primetime shows in the 90's. I also caught the Funny Komiks fever which is actually quite an integral part of my childhood as I've learned to read and associate the words just by looking at the pictures – all by myself and with my twin brother, KC. This culture pushed me to draw pictures and cartoon characters that led for me to be creative, ultimately finding out that I can make and invent stories of my own. 

As my skill advanced from the traditional stick figures, I needed a challenge and by the age of eight, I have started to make my own stories loosely based on the arena-type battles such as Dragonball Z, Pokemon, and Flame of Recca. We don't have much money then so we have to improvise to hone our craft. After the end of our school year, my twin brother and I used to pull the spring from my notebook and compile all the empty leaves to stitch 'em up together to form a thick notebook to make my cartoon stories – my very own comic book. We have made tons of it, usually strips of stories that ranged from ten to twenty pages at most, but by the end of my first year in highschool I finished a full length comic book story called "Pyrobot" – a robot created to protect the Earth similar to Combatron and Megaman. But this didn't make me happy though. The plot of the story is quite juvenile then, so I plotted a story – a serious one that touches topics of mystery and gives tales of adventures made by an entirely different civilization. That's when I conceptualized "The Omegatribe", which is the book's original title eleven years ago. I tried to plan it to fruition but then school made me extremely busy, it forced me to just put a pin on that project. 

Graduation came fast which made me happy for a bit thinking I could start the project in hiatus but lo and behold, college revealed to be my enemy too. I tried drawing slides and planned to color it in the computer by scanning it and rendering it on Photoshop but all was in vain as this takes too long a time to continue. This project is going down the drain and I could feel the urge of giving up but luckily, God has given me a window. He led me to our college publication, The Business Access Magazine, and this gave me the necessary foundation to make me adept in putting my thoughts into words. After gaining my bachelor's degree in Management at the Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila, I finally vowed to finish the story I started on 2003 and turn this comic book into a novel instead. On January 2009, I started to write it all up. It's quite hard at first as I have been writing it while taking another degree in accountancy at the University of the East. Also, the challenge is the research and plotting the story to make it complete. This ate time that it took three years for me to finish it and another year and a half to revisit the story: to create a time table, assign the time frame, and identify the lunar faces on each chapter. I have finished writing it on the same time I passed the board last year on May 2013. I have to thank God for this miracle as I couldn't have done it without his blessing, guidance, and inspiration. It's quite a challenging adventure, one that I am really thankful to experience.

When Bathala created the world, He made sure that the Earth will be safe from the Mortals: the Men and Women of the Earth. Their potential for evil has saddened Him deeply. He has to go away to create Paraiso but He needs to protect them from destroying themselves.

To make sure that life will prosper on Earth, He has blessed three righteous tribes and mandated them to protect the Fountain of Life from being corrupted. The Fountain seeds green life on Earth. Without the fountain, life will cease to exist.

The three tribes that are led by Nagozul, Yagisiv Haya, and Daomagar, left their villages and created their dominion on Bathala's three islands collectively known as The Holy Lands. Their purpose: "Protect the Fountain of Life at all costs." They have been true in following their holy edict and have proven themselves to become the Holy Sentinels of the Lands of Bathala. They have maintained the secrecy and the anonymity of the Holy Lands with perfection as life continued on Earth.

Tens of thousands of years later, the Kingdom of Nagozul has now grown arrogant and has disobeyed Bathala's mandate. An impending doom now shrouds the Holy Lands. Extinction of the mortal race is upon them and the fate of the world is at stake. It is up to the brave Holy Sentinels, the young Princes of Nagozul, to complete the mission and save the souls that are inhabiting the islands of God.

Down's expression, Brian Lord, all looked in his eyes and smiled. "It's nothing. Sony bought Columbia Pictures for $ 3.4 billion, and Panasonic bought Universal Pictures for $ 6.6 billion. That's what CAA operates."

    Tang En took a deep breath. "So a small company like Marvel Entertainment ... should be simple?"

    Brian Loth was flat-hearted, but revealed his unquestionable confidence. "Of course!"

    Tang En held a wine glass, shaking orange-yellow Liquid, "I look forward to working with CAA."

    Brian Lord 's expression finally changed subtly and his smile was much thicker. "Given the mistakes CAA made this time, we are willing to serve you once for free, until Until the completion of the acquisition of Marvel Entertainment. "

    Tang En raised his glass high," Thank you very much. "

    Bill McNick breathed a sigh of relief, and the three laughed happily.

    The next thing is the internal decision of Don and Brian Lord. It is likely to be dark, sloppy, and out of sight, and Bill McNick left with an excuse to leave.

    Down was anxious, "Brian, what should I do next?"

    Brian Lord made a down gesture. "Don, the reason Marvel Entertainment has a tough attitude now is not giving you a chance to negotiate at all. The main reason is that they still have fantasies about Marvel's superheroes and are very optimistic about the potential of Marvel Pictures. "

    Tang En eyelids," So ... we have to break their thoughts! "

    " That's right "

    Brian Lord admires Tang's decisiveness and agility. It is hard to imagine that he is just a young man under the age of twenty." Now, the entire Marvel entertainment has set its sights on a super movie, This is the only big thing, the rest are small things. "

    " Oh? Which movie? "Down seemed to understand what Brian Lord meant.

    Brian Lord said, "Blade Warrior invested by Newline Pictures."

    Tang En was not very impressed with this movie, but knew that "Sword Blade" had made several sequels, so it can be seen that the film should have a good box office and reputation.

    At least there is no loss.

    Brian Lord took out another document from his bag, which shows that his work is attentive and focused. "This film has been officially set up, and it will start filming on September 1. The budget will be about $ 45 million. Marvel Entertainment CEO Ala Arad and Chief Creative Officer Stan Lee are the producers. "

    Tang En frowned slightly, and Marvel Entertainment's bosses were all personally producers. Value and hope.

    Brian Lordon took a moment and then said, "In fact, the most important thing is that they invited the gold writer David Goyer in Hollywood. As long as the director Stephen Norrington doesn't mess up, the movie should have a good reputation. "

    ! Dunn clenched his fists," We must stop it, "

    Brian Lord smiles:" of course, this work to me, give their movies create some trouble, not hard. "

    Dunn Nodded, his face was cold. "Since the movie is about to start shooting, it is impossible to change the script, but it can create some difficulties in other aspects and increase their shooting costs."

    Brian Lord waved his hand. Needless to say, please believe in the strength of CAA. However, to have a devastating blow to this film, it is best to do both. "

 


    Tang En waved and sneered, "Since they are so confident in" Blade Warrior ", then they are going to hit the stage. I will prepare a movie and go against them!"

    This idea was incompatible with Brian Lord. Together, "I have a few film sources, or ..."

    "No need." Tang En rebuffed. He is not a CAA artist now, so there is no need to show his affection. "I just established Tang En Films. The first movie is necessary. "

    Brian Lord shook his head." It's not     easy to invest ... "

    Tang En smiled." I'm a sole proprietor! "

" Huh? "Brian Lord changed his face and was surprised. Looking at him.

    Use your own money to invest in movies? This is not a Hollywood game!

    Tang En sees Brian Lord's bewilderment, secretly proud of himself: "How about? The famous gold broker can't figure out and can't figure out my mental routine?"

    "Brian, I believe me The ability is as good as you believe in the strength of CAA. "

    Tang En's words made Brian Lord laugh suddenly, stood up and shook hands with him," Well, let's break up and hope ... we can cooperate happily. "

    " Of course, I also hope to put an end to past misunderstandings with our sincere cooperation. "

    Tang En's face was sharp and his eyes sharp.

    ...

    Thanks to the historical memories of filming "Titanic" and the study of reading during this time, Tang En is no longer poor in production and director. Through sunglasses, the professional attributes of "Town Walker" can be clearly detected. .

    Among the five attributes of the director, palm mirror 15, plot design 9, image thinking 13, director 21, camera 7, among the remaining attributes, special effects 3, animation 0, color 8, art design 11, sub lens 10, dialogue 8 ...

 


    Production in the five attributes, 1, the market is determined 52, 47 aesthetic literature, evaluation items 8, 14, writers' properties, the casting 33, the control field 62, marketing 57, rhythms 3, PR 39 ...

    such data This surprises Tang En, especially the "market judgment" and "literature aesthetics" in the producer's attributes, which must be the accumulation of a large number of movies he has seen in his previous life.

    Tang En is now looking for a new project to fight with Blade Warrior, the biggest reliance is definitely on the system existing in sunglasses.

    Before setting up a project, you must first have an empire team ...

    Tang En's current influence and reputation, let the brokerage company help, can form an excellent team. But Tang En hopes the team is loyal, reliable and capable.

    Selecting talents naturally depends on the sunglasses system.

    He first clicked on the "screenwriter" column, excluding dead and retired candidates, and ranked according to the numerical value, from high to low.

    Tang En, wearing sunglasses, reached out and pointed in the void in front of him, looking very funny.

    Soon, the candidates were selected, and Tang En was startled. There were too many screenwriters in Hollywood, right? More than 6,000 pages, more than 60,000 people?

    A total of 7 "writers" with a score of 90 or more, the highest ranking is Dickon Whistler. The screenwriter ability: 99!

    Tang En was a little bit enthusiastic. He opened Dickens Whistler's archives and found that he is now a non-writer in Hollywood. He is named in the screenwriters union and now works as the administrator of the University of California Library.

    And his other ability options are very poor, production 0, market analysis 32, literary aesthetic 58 ... There is no possibility of being a producer.

    In Hollywood, the number of screenwriters on the books is so huge that most people have trouble filling their stomachs, and the most fundamental reason is a shortage of skills.

    If you want to start in Hollywood, if you do n't have a network, you must have a strong overall quality, be able to direct a show, be able to produce, or be able to act. Such a screenwriter can really enter Hollywood.

    For the same script, the film company must choose a scriptwriter with strong comprehensive ability to write it!

    But Tangn doesn't need it.

    There is a specialization in the surgery industry, and you can do your job well.

    The film company is difficult to tell which of the two screenwriters is more capable of writing stories, so it will choose the one with stronger comprehensive strength, but Tang En is different. He has sunglasses and can easily distinguish!

    Since it is story-writing, it is good to have a strong story-writing ability. What can you do with the ability to direct and produce?

    This is the biggest advantage that the sunglasses system brings to Tang En-to discover talents and see the pearl!

    It's like a screenwriter wizard like Dickon Whistler. Because of his poor comprehensive ability, he is doomed to bury his life, but can be dug out of the soil by Tang En.

    There was a pride that spread across Tang En's body.

    On the option of screenwriter ability 95, Tang En found another guy named "Bryce Roach". His current job is a newspaper editor.

    The next few have already made famous in Hollywood, such as Spielberg's royal screenwriter David Cap, such as the screenwriter Eric of "Gump of Forrest", "The Horse Whisperer" and many other films. Rose, and even famous directors Guy Richie, Woody Allen, and director of "The Shawshank Redemption" Frank Darabont.

    These well-known personalities, Tang En, are not going to use it. To build a loyal royal team, they must send coal in the snow and dig in the loach.

    It wasn't until the screenwriter's ability was 90 that Tang En found another suitable candidate—Nia Vadalas, a female screenwriter.

    Similar to Dickon Whistler, the rest of the attributes are messy, and there is a slight talent for acting.

    Tang En intends to build a core team initially, after the company develops, and then slowly grow its power, three screenwriters are enough for the time being.

    Next, Tang chose "market judgement" in the screening of producers.

    This is a very important item in the construction process of a movie project, which is to analyze whether the project and the script can be accepted by the fans and sold at the box office when facing the commercial market.

    For example, "The Shawshank Redemption", director Frank Darabont's screenwriting ability is very good, with a rating of 92, but the "market judgment" ability is only 56 points, failed to meet the audience's taste, directly leading to the film box office failure.

    The three screenwriters selected by Tang En have the best screenwriter capabilities, but the market judgment is poor.

    But it doesn't matter, the surgery industry has a specialization, and Tang En will choose a few "market judges" who have very strong values ​​to provide opinions and improve the analysis.

    Soon, Tang En found a man, Andrew O'Hare, with weak values ​​and 97 market judgment. He is now a vagrant.

    "If this person is willing to join my team, he can become my chief market analyst in the future."

    Tang En showed a satisfied snicker, and searched for the "literary aesthetics" column.

    In contrast to "market judgment", "literature aesthetics" is aimed at the artistic sense of the movie and the reputation of the audience. It is an indispensable attribute for winning prizes.

    Tang En found a "Manora Dargis" person, female, literary aesthetic 98, now working as an apprentice, is studying film art with Andrew Sarris, the film critic of the old-fashioned literary film, occasionally in the "Village "Sound" published a film review, sharp point of view, pioneering profound.

    "Talent is definitely a talent! A must-have for Oscars, my chief art analyst!"

    Tang En couldn't help laughing.

    Suddenly felt that there was a feeling that the world's heroes had entered my door!

    happy!

Rebirth in hollywood will use his knowledge of the future to be the king of hollywood.

I have no obligation to translate everything very well, I am not being paid for it.

(Ivan Radcliffe)

When someone is intimidated by your presence, they get nervous around you. There are small signs you got to pick up, signs they don't even realize they're showing. 

Sofia Malitz was pretty easy to read. When she was surprised, her eyes widened and her cheeks rose, her eyebrows move up as well. But that expression of hers is not something that one would come by rarely. 
Intimidation, on the other hand, is rare. It really is something if you manage to intimidate Ms. Malitz. She is one hard girl to please and from what I noticed; her instincts are pretty strong. She's always defensive about things. It was very difficult to get through her but me coming close to her, caught her by surprise. For a while, I began to doubt myself. If she even thought I looked good. Nobody had ever made me feel this way, like I was normal. It did feel good, to be myself with her. It felt good to be with someone who wasn't trying to impress me but things were about to change now. I had gotten her trust and it was time to make my move.

Despite being drunk, she hardly spoke about herself. She was a very curious person and her questions were something you'd never expect; it makes me think and sometimes question myself. But hanging out with her, I hadn't felt this in ages. She knew how to have a good time if she let loose. I made mental notes of all this. It would help make the story more real.

We enter her apartment that's on the fourth floor. Her dog comes running to us once we enter in. Adorable.

"What's his name?" I ask as I try to pet him.

"Poirot" she says as she goes in.

She comes out with a glass of water, "Sorry the house is a mess right now" she says sheepishly. 

Wrong. It was sparkling clean, except for a few books lying around. My eyes tour the room as I see a small tent, something that looks like a blanket fort. Wow, this girl was creative.

"Is that a blanket fort?" I ask as I walk towards it. I was impressed with the details.

"Um, yeah. Sort of" she says.

I take the glass off her hands and drink water. I place the glass on the table and look at her. She looked distracted. Had my charms not worked?

"Um, where's the bathroom?" I ask.

"Oh yes, of course, there" she points towards her room. 

"Sof. Where were you?" I hear a guy's voice and turn behind. He was standing at the door. 

"Victor, hey" Sofia says as she approaches. What was he doing here? 

"You didn't respond to my texts or calls, I wasn't sure if you had made it home. You weren't at Absolem either" he says eyeing me.

"You went to Absolem?" Sofia asks him, looking shocked.

"Yeah! I was worried about you" he says sounding concerned. 

"Thanks Victor. I'm home now. We'll talk tomorrow." Sofia smiles at him. I hoped he had got the hint that she was safe and that I wanted him to leave. 

"Who is he, Sof? What is he doing here?" Victor asks her looking suspicious. 

"He's a friend, Victor" she says sternly, "Let me escort you downstairs" she adds and throws a look towards me, that said, 'be right back.'

'She could take as long as she wanted', I thought as she closed the door.

I quickly go to her room and go through the books on her table. Simon had asked her to keep a journal, explaining what she was going through. I just needed to take pictures of it. Things from her perspective would be way better than me imagining it and writing it on my own. All her books were neatly arranged, her diary wouldn't just be lying around. It had to be more discrete, maybe a pen beside it. I would usually keep a pen near mine. I found a book on her bed, beside her laptop. It looked old and was made out of something that looked like recycled paper. Sofia Malitz continued to surprise me even when she wasn't here. 

Click, click, click. I take pictures of her journal from the last few days. This felt so wrong. 'For the story' I kept telling myself. I hear footsteps when I close the book and quickly get into the bathroom. 

Sofia opens the door and gets in. I come out of the room and look at her. She was looking outside the window, she looked tired and sad. It didn't feel good, to see her that way. 

"Thanks for tonight, Ivan. I'm sorry you had to see that." She says.

"Oh no worries." I assure her. "If anything, I'm sorry to impose." I add. 

"Are you alright though?" I ask.

"Yeah, yeah, of course." she nods.

"I better get going then" I say and walk towards the door.

"See you at the book launch" I say and look at her. Had she been crying? Her face looked a little puffy. 

"See you" she smiles. 

I walk down and dial Catherine's number.

I wanted to tell her about my progress, but she doesn't pick the call. I walk towards my car, slowly. 

Sofia's face kept flashing in my mind. I somehow couldn't take her being sad, what was I doing? 

I quickly take out my phone and delete all the photographs. They weren't mine to see. I look up, towards her apartment. Her lights were still on. 

I walked back to the car thinking to myself. I had a wonderful night in a long time. That girl was something.

Sofia, an aspiring writer, suddenly discovers a secret that changes her life because of a tragic incident. 

Ivan, a young, popular producer, is living a perfect life and is in search of a story while possibly hiding a secret of his own.

What happens when Ivan finds his story through Sofia's secret. Would he use it for his own good and lose her? Or would he help her find herself again and in return discover who he is?

Hu Yue felt that now that the interview had entered this stage, it was time to raise the bar for one's thinking and imagination! 
For such a talented designer like Boss Pei, he must not have had it smooth-sailing all the time. If not, how could he have been able to so accurately describe a content creator's predicament in Game Designer, resonating with so many? 
However, Ma Yiqun scratched at the hairs on his head, "I don't think so."
"Ah?" Hu Yue was shocked.
Ma Yiqun said, "As far as I know, Boss Pei has not seemed to have experienced any setbacks; he has always been rather smooth-sailing…
"The Lonely Desert Road, Ghost General, Ocean Stronghold, and Game Designer… Boss Pei had only done these four games, and all of them have been a roaring success.
"So if you ask me if Boss Pei had actually managed to design this game because he resonated with it, I am actually not very sure. However, I am very sure that other designers and developers have experienced those trials and tribulations…
"While Boss Pei hasn't."
Hu Yue, "…"
Was this what a genius was like?
Just like those admirable and great reformers in history. Although they were in high positions and had smooth-going lives, they had actually managed to feel the pain and agony the lower strata of society felt.
This was a very powerful quality!
"One last question…
"The short video series Boss Pei's Daily Life that had gained popularity on the internet; it seemed to have used some of Tengda Games' material. Could I ask if Tengda had collaborated with this short video series on this?"
Ma Yiqun nodded. "En, actually all this could be found out if you investigated. Boss Pei's Daily Life is a production of Fei Huang Workspace while Fei Huang Workspace is Tengda's subsidiary."
Hu Yue's eyes lit up.
"No wonder! That means that one of the reasons why this short video series had gained in fame has to do with the fact that it adapts some of Boss Pei's personal life experiences, right?"
Ma Yiqun hesitated, "I'm sorry; I can't comment on this. I might actually divulge some information regarding Boss Pei.
"Boss Pei is a very low-profile person. He hopes that gamers could pay more attention to the games that he creates; he doesn't want them to chase him like fans go after their idols. He doesn't want them to lose objectivity regarding his games."
Although she didn't get the answer she wanted, Hu Yue wasn't angry; she actually smiled. Although she did not have cold, hard statistics; this had all in all been a rather extraordinary interview!
Indeed, only with such special employees—such a special boss—could they have created such a special game, right?
…
Amusement Times, Jingzhou City division…
Although it was a games media company that the entire country knew about—as the Amusement Times' Jingzhou City division was just a normal worksite, its set-up was rather normal. Only three journalists, two editors, and a chief editor were stationed here. 
Even its office was in a co-working space. The editor looked at the draft Hu Yue had sent as he was stunned. "Little Hu, you are a veteran journalist; why is it you have submitted just a piece…?
"Without a source, without pictures and footage, without other supporting evidence. You also can't even divulge a little about the target of the interview? We are not some road-side small media outlet. This piece… even if I gave the go-ahead, the chief editor wouldn't…"
This editor was now nursing a headache. Hu Yue had just wanted to explain when the chief editor Brother Zhao had already rushed over. "Little Hu, are you done with the draft?"
The editor hurriedly handed the draft to the chief editor. 
"Brother Zhao, this draft…"
She hadn't even finished speaking when the chief editor slapped his thigh and said, "Good! Great job, Little Hu!"
The editor, "…"
Brother Zhao hurriedly read the news' draft. "Little Hu, you are really good at adapting and striking the iron when it's hot; you deserve commendation! All the domestic players in the country now are very curious about Tengda. Although this piece might not be that substantiated, I trust in Little Hu's professional integrity; the reliability is rather high!
"Let's get a move on this and release it to create a new hot topic. Who knows? We might be able to hold our heads high up to headquarters after this!
"Let's release this as it is!"
…
Two days later, a news article appeared on Amusement Times's official site. It soon was carried by all the established games media outlets!
Getting a closer look at the mysterious Tengda Games: the domestic games industry Utopia! 
Hu Yue's piece had not mentioned Ma Yiqun even once; she did not even state she had interviewed a Tengda employee. She had started her piece by referencing the very popular Game Designer and Boss Pei's Daily Life before diving into all the content Ma Yiqun had provided her!
"Accompanying the game called The Lonely Desert Road, Tengda's name had steadily become well-known among the domestic gaming community.
"In less than a year, Tengda Games had consecutively released four games. They were a standalone game, a card game, an FPS game, and a standalone metagame. Tengda Games had used a powerful and unconstrained imagination and a bold creative spirit to win the praises of official games platforms. It is now seen as the new standard-bearer for the domestic games industry!
"Today, Amusement Times will help everyone unveil the mysterious Tengda Games; to let everyone have a peek at this up-and-coming games company!" 
… 
"In any case, Tengda Games is a company that has a strict requirement for new employees; it also dares to be bold in using new hires. It is a company that dares to innovate and also one that emphasizes the importance of imparting skills and knowledge.
"As Tengda's chief creator and lead designer—the Boss Pei in Boss Pei's Daily Life, not only does he have a calling for designing but is also extremely adept at game publicity. He has a unique charisma that attracts countless talent to him, wanting to work with him.
"However, he is also a lonely prodigy. His understanding surpasses our generation. Hence, he is always misunderstood by people.
"He treats his employees generously while he is rather thrifty himself.
"This place… is where dreams take off; this is Tengda Games, the Utopia of the domestic games industry!"
…
Not long after this article was released, all established media outlets started to carry and forward it! This actually was a little unprofessional; after all, this piece wasn't substantiated. It did not have a source, any pictures; it didn't even have any supporting evidence.
This was a standard 'article without substantiation'. However, all the media outlets were still furiously forwarding and carrying this piece. Furthermore, netizens also started to comment and debate this!
The crux was that any piece on Tengda was very rare!
Since Ghost General and Ocean Stronghold, Tengda was already considered a rather famous game developer. However, a veil of secrecy enshrouded the company, and it had never appeared clearly in front of players before.
In the eyes of many insiders in the industry, this company called Tengda was also full of mysteries. Even many Jingzhou City-based games companies knew nothing about this company.
Although this was an article without any pictures and just words—as Amusement Times was after all a known games media outlet domestically, it had a certain amount of reliability to it. That was how this article had exploded!
"It is praising Tengda nonstop! It feels as if this mysterious boss of Tengda had become the hope of the domestic games industry. Could it be that Amusement Times had also started to do sponsored partnerships?"
"That can't be. If it was a sponsored partnership, why don't they put some pictures or other things? This ambiguous writing… it doesn't seem like a sponsored partnership, right?"
"Why are you guys concerned about this? We should debate the reliability of this article, right? Which industry big boss that knows something can confirm how much of this is true?"
"I think that the phrase 'his understanding surpasses our generation' is a little exaggerating; as for 'treats his employees generously while he is rather thrifty himself', I don't believe this!"
"However, to say that Game Designer surpassed our generation; that isn't wrong, right?"
"I am a Tengda internal employee; I can verify that these are all true!"
"I am the boss of a dumpling shop across the street from Tengda. Tengda employees always come to my shop to eat dumplings. I can confirm that these are true!"
"I am the security guard of the office building next to the one Tengda is in; I can verify this as well!"
"I'll give you guys a nugget; have you guys seen Boss Pei's Daily Life? That's right, the person acting as Boss Pei is actually the real boss of Tengda!"
"Why is the acting in Boss Pei's Daily Life so good? That's because the boss himself is acting in it!"
"This is getting a little absurd. You sucky netizens are letting your mouths run wild! I don't believe Tengda's boss is so young." 
"That's right. This seems to be an insult to my intelligence!"
"However, most of the things in the article are probably real; I'll go and take a look at Boss Pei's Daily Life again!"

This book is highly popular in China and has set off a new trend. Webnovel has very high expectations for this book and has gotten the author to refine the first chapter as an exclusive for global readers. We hope everyone will enjoy reading it.

(I'm gonna talk a bit about my personal journey so if you guys are not interested, then just skip to the tips.) 
Like many normal teenagers, I had gone through an awkward phase. Sad thing is, I went through it in grade 9, so most of the people in my high school still remember my awkward phase. (I'm in grade 12 now.) But after looking at pictures from that dark time, I realised that my face didn't change at all. It was my style, my mannerisms, and my hair. I also found a deeper meaning in those changes. So here's what I found that made the difference between awkward phase me and glown up me:

1. A fail proof hairstyle is plain, natural hair. 😻 Also try all lengths of hair by cutting it to shoulder length first (or longer if you are scared) and then growing it out. See which stage you like best. (I don't think this would work with afro hair. I've never had friends who have afro hair.) I love a YouTube video for tips on this. Please comment to let me know if you guys are interested in it

2. Try to get contact lenses. 👀 I know some people suit glasses. I personally don't. But getting contacts really helps if you have oily skin and glasses just keep slipping down your nose. Or if you are like me, with 800 degrees myopia, then ditching heavy glasses feels so good. Getting contact lenses also allow me to go crazy without worrying about it flying off my face. 

3. Don't use makeup for the sake of using makeup. Use it according to your needs, your face, and your style. Also, keep in mind your overall outfit. Sometimes, a loud outfit with a loud makeup can take over your body and hide you. You want people to see you, not your makeup. Of course, there are exceptions such as creative makeup. 

4. Be mindful while shopping. 💸Just because something looks good, doesn't mean it will look good on you. Also avoid fast fashion to save up for more quality items. Always check for the quality of fabrics, the color scheme of your closet, and what you usually wear. If you don't wear skirts, don't buy a skirt. I also love a YouTube video for tips on this. Please comment to let me know you guys are interested. 

5. Work out.💦 You don't have to aim for losing weight or gaining curves. Working out enhances your metabolism, the lines on your arms and legs (makes you look extra sexy), and improves your complexion. You will radiate from the inside out. Working out doesn't have to be tiring or tedious too. You can try dancing, cycling, stretching (splits are cool!), etc. 

6. Commit to a hobby.🔥 Mine would be piano, which I started playing when I was three. During my awkward phase, I wasn't practicing at all and I was embarrassed to tell people I had been learning it since I was three and I actually have certificates for it. REALLY COMMIT TO A SKILL PLEASE! Also, don't underestimate the amount of money your special skill can bring you!! I received 500RMB once for winning an award in a writing competition, plus 100RMB for being a volunteer at the award ceremony. XD

7. Please listen to your mother when she says you look bad.💯 She's probably right. I can't express how many style mistakes I made because of not listening to her. 

8. Be more reserved. 😶Talk only when you have something meaningful to say. My awkward phase consists a lot of me blurting out dumb, hypocritical, ignorant, and sometimes offensive things. I think this is why I didn't have friends. Also, if you are not sure if your opinion on something is right (as in, in consideration of all perspectives and not on an ignorant basis), ask questions. It's always fun to get to know what others think. But if you don't have the ability to recognise your ignorance, then I can't help you. Only time and maturity can help you at this point. 🙄

9. Take care of your skin.💦 Depending on where you live, you might not need a skincare routine. Taking care of your skin does not necessarily means buying products and putting them on your face. Taking care of your skin can be applying body lotion, washing your face with a simple face wash as soon as you get home (gets rid of pollutants), clipping your bangs up for sports (avoids forehead pimples), not touching your face, etc. 

10. Do your eyebrows.💯 If you are born with perfect eyebrows, don't touch them. But I had a uni brow. For beginners, personally I feel like it's better to use a small brow shaver instead of a tweezer. It does not hurt as much and if you fail, your hair grows out faster. If you can afford, get your brows done for the first time at a salon, then follow the shape at home when it grows out. 

These are the tips I have. Hope you guys liked them. Please give constructive feedback if there's anything I can improve. Thank you for reading, lovelies!! 💋

A fiber of connection from miles away...



Our places on this earth are divided by oceans setting us apart from one continent to another. Several countries speaking several languages to understand each other. People with several cultures and beliefs. Different personalities and opinions.

In this chaotic world, we live in called real life we search for a place to escape from that reality. To be accepted as who or what we are. We have found that in the music we sing. In the books, we read. In the movies we watch. In the places, we travel and visit. Everywhere in which we get inspiration to face reality head-on.

We write stories or poems to inspire others, reading the words we weave from our own world. For some of us, it is simply an escape from reality into a world in which we can use our imaginations to dream make-believe or to live our secret fantasies or just plain be creative.

Getting on the web gives us more ways to share and get connected to other people with the same kind of thinking from across the ocean. Some of the people we meet along the way give us reasons to smile again. It's where we become friends, get to know them well, and get so close that we even trust them enough to share our own greatest fears.

I was a living a kind of living death when I found solace here on Stories Space. A place to write, camouflaging my hatred and sadness from myself when I was reading all the poetry and fictional fantasies created by the writers. I found another escape from reality and indulged in reading.

My feelings from my own troubles in life had made me feel so empty that only through laughter and reading could I be free and somewhat whole again.

I made my own heaven in purgatory.

A friend told me to write down all of my pains and troubles in poems or stories. Another friend of mine told me to be fierce in my poetry writing. I found friends who helped me give my own life a reason to continue living again through writing.

Writing makes me calm every time my mind gets into a panic mode. The pains and the fears of the unknown are my muses for writing.

When I met someone who understood me and made me feel needed and loved my poetry changed its tune. It made me think of happy thoughts. I got inspired by the things I saw and the happy memories of my childhood that I could write about.

Painful memories and realities were always there and so I wrote about them from time to time.

When that someone left me I continued writing. The same inner muse I had gained I used to keep on writing.

Then, out of nowhere, I got to know you. I became happy again. This time I got even more inspired and more creative, experimenting with my writings.

I set aside my shyness and reservations to write creatively. I still can't overcome some of my shyness and reservation but I am blooming, inspired by you.

You became my muse.

The man in the moon. The stars in my darkest hours. When at night I can't sleep thinking of you calms me to sleep.

The sunshine after the heavy storm. Where all the dead trees come to life again. That keeps me warm when everything gets chilly.

My own little heaven in my real life purgatory.

Staying with Eva certainly wasn't boring. On the first night they were at her house she insisted they were going to burn through as many Disney movies as possible so Hazel would know who all they bothered standing in line to take pictures with. 
She hadn't realized her lack of knowledge had been so apparent. But Eva wasn't unkind about it. It seemed more like she wanted to share something fun that she liked than she thought Hazel was crazy for not knowing before. 
Most of the movies were pretty cute. Exactly the sort of things kids tended to eat up. 
Hazel had enjoyed it too once upon a time. Her parents used to put those types of movies on for her and sometimes even take her to see them in theaters. 
She used to wish they would play movies while she was in the mental hospital. But after meeting Will and hearing all of the amazing things there were to know about the real world, the fictional one hadn't appealed to her as much anymore. 
Besides, once she got out her uncle wasn't the type to allow children's movies in his house. He didn't like the slightest bit of noise indicating she existed most of the time. That was the only reason he supplied her with minimal art supplies. 
Drawing was always an effective way to shut her up. As she went back to school and was able to check out books from its library she tried to draw the things she read about. There were even some guides on how to draw that helped her a lot as she tried to improve. 
Hazel spent the remainder of her elementary school days and most of middle school as well refining her technique. She was so absorbed by all there was to learn that she had no interest in friends so it wasn't like anybody other than her uncle would have taken her to the movies either. 
When they weren't watching movies, Eva wanted to hear more about Hazel's life. There really wasn't much to tell leaving out her juicy past. She was a pretty boring person. 
Talking about her art was a fairly safe topic. She mentioned that she had been interested in it basically her whole life so it was the obvious career choice even though people advised her against it. 
Everything had worked out in the end. She landed this comic job, which looked great on her resume. And after that she ended up married to someone who was willing and able to buy her all the art supplies she could ever want. Will had kept his promise quite well even if it was later than she had hoped. 
Getting here had been a rough road though. Her uncle didn't support her dreams and refused to pay for her to go to art school. He had barely acknowledged her when she got a scholarship by buying her a school sweatshirt. 
All of her high school teachers (except the art teacher) were against it too. They thought she was wasting her brains on a field that wouldn't pay well or offer a consistent job unless she decided to be a graphic designer. 
Hazel didn't want to spend her entire life creating lifeless things for other people. She refused to go down that road, even if it meant picking up a bunch of odd jobs to get by. 
Graphic designers didn't have any sort of creative freedom whatsoever in her mind. She needed to be unrestrained and free in her art or she felt choked. Even working with a finicky author like Eva was far superior to making logos all day. 
The nice thing was that Eva understood how she felt about taking the easy road. She could have gone to grad school to become a social worker like every other psychology major she knew because it was the 'smart choice' with that degree. Social workers, like graphic designers, were in high demand. 
But she was one to take the road less traveled by. If she went back to grad school it would be to specialize in the very specific field she wanted and nothing less. 
She had told Hazel how she ended up where she was now, in what her mother called 'a career dead end.' Yes, she was working two jobs and didn't have the most glamorous lifestyle but she made enough to do fun things every so often like their trip in Florida. 
The point was that she was doing what she wanted and didn't feel a rush to change that. Hazel could respect that. 
What she was less fond of was that Eva's interest in true crime and serial killers was because she was genuinely intrigued by criminology. Her eventual goal was to work for the FBI as a profiler. 
Wanting to catch people like her parents' killer wasn't the part she was upset by. It was how she consumed countless amounts of media about serial killers and other famous criminals and helped perpetuate sales and popularity for those things. 
It was people like her who kept the market for such grotesque things open. Those she truly despised—the people who capitalized on other people's pain by writing books picking apart the sick minds of killers—made money off of people like Eva. It was why they kept doing it. 
She had seen the book on the Bay Area Blade that had largely inspired his inclusion in that docuseries in a stack on the coffee table. It had taken all of her willpower to keep her mouth shut about it.
The series had already started airing and Hazel desperately hoped Eva wouldn't want to watch it while she was stuck here. She wasn't sure she would calmly be able to explain why she couldn't bear to watch that crap. 
Three days passed and there was no sign of the snow letting up back home so she would have to stay here a while longer. That show aired on Sundays and it was Thursday now. More than anything she wanted the airport to be cleared for travel before then.

“I’ll marry anyone who will take me!” Hazel declared loudly. “I don’t need love!”

“Get down!” Will hissed. “You don’t know what kind of people are lurking around in here! Talking like that might get you killed!”

Hazel Dixon thought she was putting her troubled past behind her. But when the person she thought she trusted most betrays her, she loses her head and proposes to an entire bar full of strangers. 

Enter Will Sheffield, a charming stranger who decides to take her up on her offer to save her from herself. 

He spoils her rotten without expecting anything in return and Hazel's confusion only grows. She doesn't know why he is acting this way. Or why he reminds her so much of the 'dangerous' childhood friend she thought was gone forever...
