《forbidden love I : yuchae》FORBIDDEN LOVE : The Night of Sadness
Advertisement
Weeks later and lots of things already happened. Chaeryeong and Yuri continued talking and hanging out together as well as Yuna and Hyunjin. After all, Chaeryeong don't still have any idea about Yuna and Hyunjin going out together without her consent. Of course, Chaeryeong shouldn't know that Yuna's hanging out with Hyunjin. It will just ruin Yuna's plan . On the other side, Yuna knew about what's happening between Chaeryeong and Yuri.
And she doesn't feel right about it.
Chaeryeong do became happier the moment Yuri and her started hanging out together. Lunch date, dinner date, and weekends date. Aside from Yuna and the three girls, no one knows about them hanging out. If ever there's someone find out about it, Chaeryeong would end up got beaten by her so-called Dad again.
Everything is fine but there was surely one thing changed about Chaeryeong and Yuna's relationship. There's one thing that Chaeryeong noticed about the younger's actions that isn't usual. After telling Yuna that she's already forgiven after lying at her, Yuna treated her the same way she did. Yuna acted mad, cold, and sometimes avoiding her for an unknown reason.
She tried asking the younger if there's something wrong but she will just receive a 'nothing' from her. One more thing, she noticed that Yuna's always going home late without telling her the reason why. Chaeryeong knew there's something going on with her. She knew that Yuna was hiding a secret that she shouldn't know.
Reason why, Yuna found out that she was hanging out with Yuri on the past few weeks. She's just feeling something strange on them and it was surely jealousy. She knew it isn't just a simple hang out. She knew that it was a date. And she hates it. She already knows what will happen after this. She knew Chaeryeong. She was the softest woman she knows. How come Chaeryeong won't fall in love again with that woman? Especially when they had a past relationship?
...
"You know you can trust me with that". Ryujin spoke as she walked towards the busy woman on the corner of the classroom.
"As if you can reach it". Lia respond, giving up and sat on her chair. She was one of the cleaners for today and good thing, Ryujin was there to help.
"Did you know that I can use a chair, Ms. Choi, hmm?". She said and pulled one chair before positioning it in front of the window. "Give me that curtain".
Lia gave it to her and secretly smiled. Ryujin put the curtain on the window and went down after that. "Done".
Lia looked at it. "Thanks". She muttered and turned her gaze back to the woman beside her.
"Anytime, Ms. Choi". Ryujin replied and playfully winked at the woman. Lia blushed in result. "Now can we go home? ".

Lia nodded in response, grabbing her bag on her seat before walking closer to Ryujin. "Are they still waiting for us?". She asks as they both exited their classroom.
"Only Yeji". Ryujin replied.
"Where's Chaeryeong?".
"Probably with Yuri again".
Lia nodded. "Then where's Yuna?".
"I don't know where she is. She suddenly went gone on her classroom. Yeah, like usual. I asked one of her classmates and she said, she saw Yuna talking to a guy. I tried to find her but saw nothing. She's not even with Yeji". Ryujin explained. Also confused about the younger's actions.
"Yah, what if Yuna's dating that guy she was talking to. Did Chaeryeong know about it?".
Ryujin frowned. "I know Yuna gained a bunch of suitors ever since the first day she went here, but we know she isn't that kind of person. I even thinks she's... she's gay". She replied and giggled at her statement.
"Da fak are you saying? Do ya even have proof, Ms. Shin, huh?".
"Those heart eyes when she's looking at Chaeryeong was enough for me to think that she's gay. Like hellooo? Why would she looked at Chaeryeong in that way?".
"Because she love Chaeryeong?". Lia replied.
Ryujin nodded. "That's what I mean".
"Ofc, she loves Chaeryeong. She was her sister, idiot". Lia stated and gave the woman a slap on its shoulder, making Ryujin winced in pain.
"Yah! Do you really have to hit me like that? And can't you see? Yuna even changed after knowing that Chaeryeong is dating Yuri again. Did you even notice that?". Ryujin replied while rubbing her left shoulder.
"First of all, why would Yuna likes her romantically...when they're sisters? Are you even thinking right, Ryujin?".
"Sisters. Sisters. Sisters. Right, they're sisters. But did you forgot that they are S.T.E.P. SISTERS ? Meaning, they are not pure sisters. Did you get my point?". Ryujin said, getting frustrated little by little.
"No". Lia answered but literally got what she meant to say. She just wanted to teas the woman.
Ryujin sighed. "Freaking dense". She muttered and playfully rolled her eyes. Both of them arrived at the parking lot and saw Yeji on her car, sitting at the driver's seat. They'll use Yeji's car this time since Chaeryeong have a different business to do, yea.
Ryujin opened the door for Lia and the woman immediately entered the car. She then went on the other side and went in, taking the seat beside Lia.
"Aigo, I'll be a third wheel again". Yeji said, taking a glance on the mirror and saw the two women on her back.
"Then invite your bAe to join us". Ryujin said, playfully wiggling her eyebrows which annoyed the woman in front.

"Uhuh, I saw that Minju girl waiting for someone there. Is it ya?". Lia joined , exchanging a glance with Ryujin as they both began teasing Yeji.
"Shut up". Yeji respond, annoyingly. She then began to drive and stops in front of the gate. She opened the door on the front seat and a woman went in.
Seeing who it is, The women on the backseat giggled. "Oh yea, Yeji's bae is here". Ryujin and Lia said in unison , playfully smirking.
Minju secretly smiled.
"Don't mind them. They just can't date each other, since you know... they're freaking fuckin' dense".
...
"Thankyou. Go home safe, okay?". Yuri said and smiled. She opened the car's door and looked at Chaeryeong before going out.
"Yeah. Thank you for the dinner, anyways". Chaeryeong replied, smiling widely.
"Why don't you come inside first? Beside, I'm alone here. The maids won't tell Dad about us for sure".
Chaeryeong smiled. "No, It's okay. Dad might be home already. It's also late, you have to rest too".
"Right. Uhm, it's Saturday tomorrow, do you have something to do? You know we can hang out again. My treat".
"I'm not sure but I'll just gonna call you". Chaeryeong replied. It's been how many days since they started going out together and isn't that exhausting too? She do likes it. Those bonding they did on the past, were now coming back. And she was definitely enjoying every moment she's with the woman.
"Okay. You can go now. Take care". After receiving a nod, Yuri finally closed the door of Chaeryeong's car and waited after Chaeryeong fade.
Yuri sighed. "I'm sorry, Chaeryeong. I don't want to do this but you know I'm just a puppet, who's being controlled". She whispered on the air. "It's true that I love you. But I also love someone else now. It's only for business, Chaeryeong. I'm sorry". Everything is not right. Even from the start, Yuri didn't want to do this. Seeing Chaeryeong's smile was making her happy and guilty at the same time. She knew at the end, Chaeryeong will hate her again, and she will accept it.
Chaeryeong stops in front of their house and opened her phone after noticing a new notification, seeing her dad's name on her screen. She hurriedly opened it and what's worse is, it was a photo.
Chaeryeong's heart skipped a bit, staring at the photo of her and Yuri while eating on the restaurant they were in, earlier. "Fuck". She cursed under her breath. She knew she's screwed. Whoever that spy of her dad will be the death of her. But who could it be? The only thing that Chaeryeong knows at the moment, she's surely dead tonight.
Opening the door of her car, Chaeryeong threw her phone on her seat and closed the door before entering their house.
As she opened the wide door, a view of a tall woman appeared in front. "Oh, you don't have date tonight?". She asks, sarcastically.
The woman chuckled. "Supposed to. But my date just arrived. Seems like she just had a date with someone else so, guess nevermind".
"Silly". Chaeryeong giggled. "Jokes aren't allowed here, Ms. Shin". She muttered and began to walked inside, nervously.
"I'm not joking though. So where have you been then?". The younger followed her behind. "You're with Yuri unnie, right?". A bitter smile appeared on her lips. Although, Chaeryeong can't see that, she can still sense it.
"We just ate dinner". Chaeryeong replied. "Where's Mom and Dad, anyways?".
"Mom and I will go out. We will leave now, actually". Yuna said, causing Chaeryeong to stops from walking. Her gaze turned to the younger.
"You're not staying here?".
Yuna shook her head. "We're going yo meet someone tonight, Unnie. Why?".
Chaeryeong looked away, heart beating fast. If Yuna and her Mom will leave, her dad will surely beat her. That picture of her and Yuri is the sign that she will meet the hell tonight.
"Unnie, you okay?". Yuna asks, worriedly.
"Uh, yeah...yeah". Chaeryeong said as soon as she came back at her senses.
Yuna nodded but didn't believe her. Chaeryeong's expression was enough for her to think that there's something bothering the older.
"Ms. Lee, your Dad is waiting you in the private room". One of her dad's men, said and bowed after greeting.
There was a fear and nervous expression appeared on Chaeryeong's face.
Private room.
Right, the room of hell.
Chaeryeong nodded. "Tell him I'll follow. I just have to talk to Yuna". She said and the guy bowed for the second time before walking away.
Chaeryeong turned around and looked at the taller woman. "Yuna..." She paused. Should she tell it? If she did, will her dad won't continue his plan? If Yuna will stay beside her, is she still safe? Surely not. Her Dad will still find a way to beat her.
"Wae? Something's wrong?". The younger asked, totally worried about Chaeryeong.
"N-No, nevermind. I have to go". Chaeryeong smiled bitterly and began to walk. It was hard. It's like, her body became more heavier in every steps she was doing. Whatever happens tonight, she just hope she's still alive 'til tomorrow.

Enigma's Multiverse: Rewrite
This novel was rewritten with the following goals in mind: -A 'human' MC, that struggles underneath the weight of his past emotions and slowly grows as a person as he deals with past trauma and regret. A relatable protagonist whose actions are in line with his motivations, who may be amiable or ruthless depending on the stakes presented. (Caucasian male protagonist, set in the modern world with alien 'induction' into the cultivation world.) - Competent antagonists that have their own goals and ambitions, instead of always targeting the MC for plot convenience. - An original cultivation system. - Interesting and well fleshed out enemy archetypes. - Hell mode challenge right off the bat. - Lots of action and fighting with psychological elements. - My vision of what a cultivation novel should be like. This is the rewrite of the original Enigma's Multiverse, the first version reads more like a skeleton or a first draft as it was my very first work and I've come a long way since then. A lot of things from the original will be tweaked/enhanced, so it might just end up as a completely different work. Cover Credits- Instagram @just_anime_art_things
8 218Wretched Brood
I knew I was different from the beginning. I wanted nothing to do with those simpletons that valued only food, drink, and women. So I distanced myself from my brood, not considering myself a goblin. I even tried to become one of the humans, befriending some in the process. I thought that I’d live a relatively happy life as a “human” adventurer, albeit behind a wooden mask. At that time I didn’t know that I’d soon become the enemy of all humanoid races, a being that was despised and feared by all intelligent creatures. The calamity called “Scourge.”

8 95The Dreamside Road
Five years after the world fell into chaos, a treasure of artifacts is up for grabs. The relics of the Dreamside Road offer a power that could help rebuild or annihilate what remains. Orson Gregory is an adventurer for hire, but hunts this treasure for answers, not glory. Enoa Cloud’s late aunt helped hide the Dreamside Road, but following in her aunt’s supernatural tradition offers her as much peril as power. Together, Orson and Enoa battle a magic-obsessed militia, clash with a host of rivals, and face constant adventure on their journey to find the Dreamside Road. *Updates Monday and Friday The Dreamside Road is now on TopWebFiction! Vote so people know this exists. _____________________________________ NOTE: The Progression tag applies specifically to Enoa. Also, fair warning, that element doesn't enter the story until she begins her studies. Content: Main characters range in age from teenagers to people in their thirties and older, but it will not contain gratuitous violence or explicit sexual content. It also won’t shy away from implication, anything to make this story and its world feel more real. Characters will freely allude to potentially triggering topics, including living with a disability, facing terminal illness, coping with trauma, surviving societal destabilization, and the consequences of bigotry. At its most intense, the Dreamside Road is a hard PG-13. Worldbuilding: This is not a story with a lot of early exposition scenes, conveniently explaining ‘magic systems’ and political dynamics. Readers will learn, progressively, as the characters do. This story/world has a ‘magic system’, or rather, a set of systems, but the effort to quantify and understand the truth of the setting plays a role in the backstory, as well as in some character motivations. In that same vein, not every character has a firm grasp on the nature of their world, and not every piece of dialog from every character should be taken as entirely truthful Worldbuilding. Also, this isn't the softest Sci-fi. There are at least some basic explanations given for various elements, but Royal Road does not give me a spectrum to choose from. Given the choice between hard and soft, let's just say The Dreamside Road won't be cited in any college Physics papers. Setting and Theme: The Dreamside Road walks the line between fantasy and science fiction and deals with finding one’s place in a changing world. Many of the characters in this story are United States natives and the story begins in the United States, my homeland. However, knowledge or interest in this country is not necessary to understand the story, especially as it progresses. Also, as this is a novel that deals with societal collapse and while that damage may be widespread, in story, I don’t want to overstep and critique the culture of others’ unless I have particular knowledge in a given area. Ultimately, the Dreamside Road is American in the same way Harry Potter is English, fantasies that do not have a full secondary world, but with enough original elements to fully diverge the setting from our the real world.
