In a quiet town of Taiping, Rizal Salleh has always known the rhythm of his days. The scent of leather, the careful stitching of soles, the familiar faces that pass by his small workshop. But some paths are not meant to stay in one place. When an unexpected opportunity calls him beyond the town he has always known, Rizal finds himself stepping into a journey that will take him across unfamiliar roads, cultures, and people-each leaving behind something he cannot quite name, but cannot forget. Along the way, he begins to understand that some things are not simply made by hand... but shaped by stories, memories, and the quiet connections we carry with us. Langkah Warisan is a gentle journey of discovery, heritage, and the footsteps we leave behind. Malay words and phrases are woven throughout the story to preserve its cultural voice. The journey begins with a 3-chapter release followed by one chapter every every Saturday, Monday and Thursday.

A quiet story about love, distance, and the courage to walk away. I was never the other woman. I was never the only one either. One loved me from a distance. The other stood beside me every day. One accused me of cheating. The other promised he would wait. I never crossed the line. But sometimes, emotional lines are harder to see. When I finally left, no one stopped me. No one followed. Years passed. No calls. No messages. No closure. And somewhere between the silence and the healing, I realized something terrifyingly peaceful: I no longer needed to be chosen. I chose myself. This is not a story about betrayal. It's about growing up, letting go, and finding strength in unanswered promises. If you've ever loved someone you couldn't fully have - this story is for you.

Forced to find another job, he comes across a router on call, responsible for handing out closure or fond memories to those who need it, stemming from an ever-growing tide of the same people that no longer had time for drinking with friends, the same people who now long for simpler times yet continue to comply with the status quo. With years of experience of handling people and sharing a drink, the ex-bartender wanders a changed society, one that can no longer spare time or a drink, to convert salarymen back into people one at a time, a long journey to learn what the "progress" humankind values truly means.

James Carter doesn't believe in losing control. Adhya Rao doesn't believe she deserves to be chosen. Every night, they stand just a few feet apart-close enough to notice, far enough to pretend it means nothing. Until one rainy night changes everything. As their connection deepens, so do the risks. Because love isn't just about finding someone-it's about facing yourself. And some truths are harder to confront than walking away.

Marcus arrives at yet another job interview, bracing himself for disappointment. Surrounded by confident, well-dressed candidates who seem to glide effortlessly through life, he feels out of place and invisible. The room reeks of wealth, connections, and opportunity-things he doesn't have. As names are called and others move ahead, Marcus struggles to keep hope alive. Each rejection chips away at him, his certificates and hard work feeling meaningless. When the man in the suit finally announces that the company has found the candidate they were looking for, Marcus' frustration boils over. He pleads, begs, and clings to the man in desperation, but is met with cold dismissal and humiliation. By the end of the chapter, Marcus is left alone in the rain, shivering and soaked, facing the harsh reality of a world that seems indifferent to his effort, dreams, and suffering. This opening sets the tone for a story about resilience, societal injustice, and the emotional weight of repeated failure.

Some people meet and it's loud. Fireworks, declarations, the whole performance. Amara and Luca meet in a library. A dropped book. A few lines of handwriting that weren't meant to be seen. Two sentences that change everything: It's really good. Don't do that thing where you close it. Amara Brooks has spent four years perfecting the art of disappearing. Since moving from Portland to a small coastal town in Oregon, she's learned that being quiet means being easy, and being easy means being loved. She hides her poems in library books. She makes herself smaller every year. She tells herself this is survival. Luca Alvarez-Klein builds things so they'll stay. Furniture, mostly. Sometimes boxes. He keeps a ketchup packet and a blue marble and a pen from the morning his father left - proof that things happened, that they mattered, that the before-version of the world was real. He came to Harlow Bay already decided to leave it. They recognize each other before they know each other's names. They are both people who learned to survive by becoming less of themselves. But together - quietly, incrementally, in the white space of library books and late-night texts and a garage that smells like something being made - they become more. Where Moss Grows Back is a story about two people who meet at exactly the right time and exactly the wrong moment. About the poetry you hide and the things you keep and the specific cost of loving someone before you've finished learning how to stay. About what it means to take up the space you actually occupy. About walls, and bright fragments, and the sky on the other side.

What do you do when love turns out to be a leash? Res is the new kid who fell hard and fast for the most beautiful girl in school. Melissa. Cotton candy and green eyes and a smile that felt like sunshine. He should have listened to Malik. He should have walked away. He didn't. What followed was honey laced with venom - a race he shouldn't have run, a best friend who paid the price, and a rain-soaked reckoning that changed everything. This is not a love story. It's what happens after love bleeds out. When Hearts Bleed. Some lessons cost everything.

A person's busy day.

Kraven's Silent Symphony (Part 1) is a heartfelt coming-of-age story about quiet love, self-discovery, and the strength of bonds that don't need words to surviveinted in his own life-academically weak, directionless, and unsure of his worth. Surrounded by friends who care but don't fully understand him, Kraven drifts through school until the arrival of Claire, a brilliant and composed new student, ignites something he never knew existed within him. Claire is everything Kraven is not-focused, admired, and effortlessly successful. Inspired by her presence, he begins a silent transformation, pushing himself beyond his limits, rising from the bottom to the top. Yet his greatest challenge isn't academics-it's finding the courage to speak to her. Words fail him, emotions overwhelm him, and silence becomes his language. An unexpected outlet emerges through comics-simple sketches that carry his feelings when his voice cannot. What begins as a hobby soon becomes a bridge, drawing laughter, friendships, and eventually Claire herself closer to him. But admiration attracts jealousy, and past grudges resurface in dangerous ways. Betrayal, manipulation, and a cruel test of character threaten to destroy everything Kraven has built. As years pass, exams, pandemics, separations, and changing paths test their bond. When the moment finally arrives for truths to be spoken, fate intervenes with devastating force, forcing Kraven to make the ultimate sacrifice-one that defines love not as possession, but as protection. This is not a story about confession. It is a story about becoming. About friendships that endure. About love that stays silent yet eternal. Some bonds don't fade with distance. They echo forever. Parts 2, 3, 4, 5: Coming soon.

"The Way You Are was born from the quiet tension between what we show and what we truly are. It's a story about fragile souls trying to exist in a world that often misunderstands them. Behind the school walls, the novel explores emotional abuse, the weight of expectation, and the silent beauty of resilience. This is not a story of perfect love-it's a reflection of how broken hearts still find ways to shine. I wanted to capture the raw, unfiltered emotion of being human, of loving despite the fear, and of learning that being yourself is the most daring act of all."

But through the chaos, one person still reaches for her: Cassie Wrence. They say love is strong enough to pull someone back from the edge-but what happens when it isn't always enough?
