Wake up. Chest pain.Eat breakfast. Shortness of breath.Go to work. Weakness.Bedtime. Fear of not waking up.Living with a heart condition was already bad enough. Living with a heart condition and not having the proper funds to cover it was the absolute worst thing that could occur in a persons life. And sadly that was happening to 23 year old, Azara Pierce. She tried everything to get her life right, and yet she managed to be wronged every time. Every option she came up with disappointed her and caused helplessness and frustration. Ready to call it quits, a solution to all her problems turns up at her forefront. Though consider outrageous to others, it was possible and necessary for Azara. She typically avoided everything political and conservative, putting on a facade to get benefits seemed like the only way to get things done her way. But what happens when benefits aren't the only hopes she ends up receiving in the long run? Started: August 7, 2024Ended: TBD…

ATTENTION: YOU MUST READ FRESHMEN YEAR FIRST!Freshly new nineteen year old, Shai Carter, is back with even more madness. Entering his sophomore year of college, Shai returns with an "I don't care" attitude that surely raises some eyebrows and stirs up unnecessary conflict. Matters become worse when his mother, Allison, tries to find her way back into his life. He didn't know her true intentions for being back or whether she was going to stay around for once. He did know one thing surely, he wasn't going to allow anyone or anything interrupt his ongoing peace of mind. He was staying true to himself, avoiding all drama and bullcrap that people could possibly pull on him. That included the ones he loved. But drama seems to always find him.She didn't think her second year would be like this but it was something. Eighteen year old, Desdemona Young, came back with a fresh new demeanor and confidence.

With the thoughts of wanting to patch things up with her son, Allison is met with multiple never-ending issues and halts in her mission. She just wanted one thing...a relationship with her child, but that seemed too impossible with secrets and lies she's still holding to.October 18, 2023 - August 22, 2024…

He was disrespectful, nasty, selfish, and a certified cheater with no heart or soul in this body. Love was never meant for him and neither was settling down which explained the constant cheating he partook in. Though his infidelity wasn't much of a surprise to anyone, the sudden turn of events that occurred when he met her sure was.Twenty-three year old, Jersey Martin, was average.

Female. Anyone in between. If she was attracted to them then she was going to bang. Though some may consider her actions disgusting and even say she has a sex addiction, Jersey still didn't care. She wasn't into relationships or long-term sneaky links or committing to anyone at that matter. Yet, she found herself going against her own beliefs after meeting him.This is THE OTHER HER.Started: 8/22/22Finished: 8/4/23…

If there wasn't anything she hated the most it was MEN. Sevyn Moore, 22, was the girl that had a huge hatred towards the other gender. She had her reasons why and she felt as though they were reasonable for a girl like her. Sevyn wasn't the type that fell for the filter men would put on before their true colors were shown. She didn't fall for the same three lines dudes would say to get in her pants nor the same repetitive and disrespectful gestures. She was all for actions, yes, but she knew how to differentiate between forced ones and the ones that came from the heart. Even sometimes the ones from the heart didn't feel real to her, but that was as close as she was going to get to a real man.She knew one day she wanted to get married and live a happy life Mr. Right. But, in a world where disrespecting black women for clout was a new trend, sneaky links existed, and being exclusive was always a problem to people, she preferred being single than dealing with a man-child. Or any man at that matter.But, that was easier said than done. In most cases she was ready to lay down with a man even if he was a walking red flag, but she controlled herself. That was until she met the man himself where the thought of doing bad felt so damn good.She was tempted, but wasn't easy.This is Temptation.…

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it a memory...You know you're in love when you can say anything to the person and you know they won't laugh at you. When you can see their face when you close your eyes. When you can still feel their arms around you holding you tight after they're gone. When you can still taste their kiss after you have said goodbye. You can tell you're in love when you miss them before they're gone. When their voice lingers in your ears. When their presence eases any pain. When their name sends chills down your spin. When they're the only thing you can think about. You know you're in love when you can see all their hopes and dreams and their soul when you look into their eyes. When they call you at four in the morning to say, "I Love You" and mean it. When your tears stain not only their shirt, but also their heart. When even a simple chore done with them can become a lasting memory. Ultimately, you know you're in love when you can't imagine living without them and can't figure how did you live before you knew them. When they fulfill every need and without them you're incomplete. The love of someone else completes the heart, and sound and mind all at once.𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎-𝐟𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏…

But, to love someone when things are difficult, when they're not being perfect, when they're messing up, flaws are seen, mistakes are made...that's what really allow you to see how much love there is really. Anyone can love someone who doing and saying all the right things, being everything you want and need, when they're got it all together and it all figured it out. But, to love someone at their lowest, to love someone despite how broken they feel, when they're lost, when you're willing to stand by them no matter how challenging or difficult things may be, that kind of love is a lot more beautiful. That kind of love is a lot more meaningful. Thank you for loving me both times when things are good and bad, up and down. Thank you for taking in every aspect and part of me, accepting my flaws, forgiving my mistakes and helping me become the best version of me. 06/26/2021-02/19/2022Rankings:#181 in black 9/16/2021#2 in blackcharacters 9/16/2021#570 in urban 9/16/2021#20 in urbannovel 9/16/2021#3 in blackstory 9/16/2021…
