Don't cry.
Don't cry. You're stronger than that.
He's not worth it. He's not worth those tears.
I took a deep breath and blinked my eyes rapidly as I made my way out of the office.
Kyle was over there smiling in victory and when his eyes met mine...
- Thank you for choosing to read this book. I love you guys so much for this.
- This book contains no cheating, no love triangles (maybe, maybe not) and is really cliche in the starting but eventually develops its own plot.
-Since this is my first book, I hope you guys go easy on me. But comments from a critics point of view will be appreciated so that I can make my writing better for you guys.
-This book will not be a fast-paced romance in which they'll say their "I love you's" in the third chapter neither will it be slow-burn by which I mean them having their first kiss in the last chapter. This will kind of be in the middle. So don't get angry if it's not going at your pace.
- Secondly, This book is my baby and if you ever copy my work, I'm going to find you and let's just say it won't be one of the best days of your life.

Wow this is a pretty shitty Author's note, isn't it?
I think I wrote this about one or two years ago when I first started writing this book.
The reason for this intervention is that as this book has grown a lot from last year so a lot of new readers have come.
And some readers seem to think that this book resembles After. At first I ignored those comments when I realised that as these people will go further into this book, they will soon realise that it's nothing like After. At all.
But now these comments are starting to spoil my mood, so I'm here to explain it to you.
After isn't the first nor is the only book that uses the bet storyline. By 'the bet storyline' I mean a storyline where the main lead makes a bet with his friends that he will make the female protagonist fall in love with him for something in return.
So I'm not sure if you've heard of 'SHE'S ALL THAT.'

She's all that was a movie which was released in 1999 (two years even before I was born. JEEZ) It contains the bet storyline. And I'm pretty sure this is what started this whole storyline. (Please don't kill me if I'm wrong and it wasn't actually the first.)

And I'm pretty sure you're here like "It started what?" So let me explain. She's all that became so famous that everyone started using the bet storyline in books and in movies even to a point where it became a whole cliche.
TA DAAA.
Do you guys get it now?
People use this cliche so often that Goodreads dedicated a whole genre to all of this.

Plus you can even find all these books if you google it.

So I'm guessing we've cleared up this issue. My book is not made from After nor it copies it but my book IS cliche in the starting. And this is what I meant by its cliche but grows it's own plot when I said that above.
Just because After by Anna Todd is the only book you've read about a bet doesn't mean that every other book you read after that is copying it. That only means that your dumbass is inexperienced in reading and you need to go and read more books. Also with a variety.
Okay so I'm bored now. That's all for today.
Bye

And also if you haven't seen 'She's all that'. Please do go and see it. It's seriously so iconic.
