The days went by, and soon I was discharged from the hospital. I was given more useless pills for my anxiety and depression, but was warned not to take too many. My sisters were to keep me on close watch to make sure it didn't happen again. Chan never paid another visit after that day.
Must've scared him away, I thought.

"You can come in." I absentmindedly stated. I was busy catching up on the homework that was assigned over the days I wasn't at school. Tomorrow is supposed to be my first day back.
Rachel hobbled in holding a big platter of spaghetti with bread on the side. I saw her from the corner of my eye and sighed, spinning around on my swiveling chair to help her carry the plates. I had been eating in my room these past two days for the sake of Olivia, who had became fearful of her own brother. In other words, she was scared of ME.
"Thanks noona. How's...?" I asked as I brought the food over to my desk.
"She's fine, actually eating dinner downstairs right now. You can join us if you like."
I shook my head with a chuckle. "Nah, it's alright Rachel. I'd better stay in here."
"You should get some fresh air later, you've been stuck in here for a while now."
"Maybe, but first I have to finish this." I waved her off as she left to rejoin my younger sibling.
I sighed and brushed my hand through my hair as I went back to my studies.
It was already 10:42pm, and I still hadn't finished my absent work. Of course, I had struggled with it and gotten frustrated again, but couldn't risk another hospital visit. I simply swallowed some medicine and kept on with it.

"Psst." Someone whispered outside my door. I turned my head toward the direction of the voice and squinted in the dark. My room was only slightly illuminated by the light on my laptop.
"Rachel?"I whispered back. My door made a small creaky sound as it opened. The girl motioned for my to follow with her fingers, and left a small crack between the wall and the door.
I stood up and followed her out of my room. She walked even further until we made it downstairs and by the front entrance. I could see a small spark in her eyes, filled with excitement. Rachel led me outside into the cold and snowy neighborhood after we had put on our shoes.
We sat down on a small bench after we arrived at a nearby park. It was dark out except for the street lamps glowing by the sidewalk.
She spoke after a few minutes of silence. "I'm sorry."
I tilted my head at her. "For what?"
"For getting mad. I know it's been hard, and for you especially. You were really close with her."
I nodded and clicked my tongue. "How've you been holding up? She's your mother as well."
"Ah, I'm fine. It still hurts, but I guess I forgot about that after seeing how it affected you and Liv. Have to be the one strong one in this family, don't you think?"
"You don't have to be strong all the time. I know you have feelings too."
"Nah, I'm okay for now. I'd rather protect you first." She pinched my cheek. "After all, you are my little brother."
"Hey, I'm not that weak." I laughed.
"Yeah. Yeah, I know." Rachel put her arm around me as we gazed at the stars above us. They were like shimmery specks of glitter off in the long distance.
"I'm glad I can still touch you. I don't even know how Haphephobia works, honestly."
I looked at her and grinned. "Me too, sis. Me too."

The Czarina's Buccaneer
RELEASES EVERY MONDAY AT 18:30 CST ----- After suffering the torments of slavery, the destruction of his nation, and the massacre of his band of brothers, Rodion Kazansky craves revenge and yearns for the freedom owed to him as a proud Cossack. A lost horse and a chance meeting with the Catherine the Great set him off on a journey that will take him from the steppes of the Crimea to the beaches of the Gold Coast of Africa and back again. There he will face British slavers, pirates, and the ghosts of his past to become the bane of his enemies as the Czarina's Buccaneer. ----- DISCLAIMER: This novel acknowledges the fact that the Cossacks, and the Ukrainian people by extension, are unique and not simply a "different variety of Russians." The main character views the Russians as "moskal foreigners" and does not see himself as one. This also acknowledges the fact that the czarina deprived many of the Cossacks of their freedom, something that the main character resents.

As you can probably guess, you don't wanna take my advice if your like an overprotective mother about your story. Who am I kidding, EVERYONE is like that about their stories.But, if you could find the courage to pry the story out of your cold, crabby hands so I can give my brutally honest opinion then be my guest. Just don't try and start a fight once I provide it. You DON'T wanna fight a pirate. .................................. I reserve the right to decline stories as this will be taking up quite a bit of my time and if I say no, I mean NO. If your blurb is unreadable I will decline it. If it includes the genres mentioned in my 'Hell No' section then I will send it back where it came from.Do NOT critique the Captain.
