It was 4:30 PM in evening but the clouds had turned dark and stormy, appearing to be eight at night.

Among these, like a bunch of cyclone, Came a man alone. With all power and manhood at his sleeves, With a grin in his lips, A d  Read More...

By Malvica in Romance | Reads: 1,068 | Likes: 17
Let me ask you a question- what do you do when you develop feelings for someone? You will first go through between fluctuating stages of admittance and denial.

We are in the middle of a dreadful pandemic. The world is in chaos. It somehow feels like the end of the world is nearer each day. Like we are on the verge of extinction. Everyone is in confusion.

A HUGE PAUSE!
