    When Professor Juniper Sallow unexpectedly accepts the position of new Herbology assistant at Hogwarts, she expects soil, solitude, and the quiet company of things that grow toward the light. Instead, she finds a castle that listens, plants that remember-and a colleague far too observant to be harmless. Beneath the chatter of students and the hum of old magic stirs a cold pulse under the greenhouses, one even Dumbledore avoids. Set against the backdrop of *Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone*, this story explores the spaces between canon-staff meetings, patrols, and the slow awakening of two people who understand silence better than safety. A slow burn of intellect, distrust, and unspoken loyalty. "Harmless," she says. The earth knows better.

    Confessions of a Chronic Overthinker is a collection of personal stories told with humor, honesty, and a touch of melancholy. The author delves into the world of journaling, friendship, love, and sports, reflecting on her experiences and doubts through the lens of constant overthinking. These are tales of moments when thoughts become entangled in endless mazes, where every decision feels like a challenge and every action follows hours of internal debate. Readers are invited not only to laugh at the absurdity of these situations but also to ponder how often we become prisoners of our own minds.

    "The Loop of Finding" is a reflection on the quiet cycles we all go through-the excitement of beginnings, the weight of self-doubt, and the endless pursuit of something we can't quite name. It captures the inner dialogue of trying, stopping, questioning, and still moving forward. This poem is a gentle reminder that it's okay not to have all the answers. Sometimes, the 'what' we chase is not meant to be caught-but to be explored. And in that exploration, we begin to find ourselves.

    A story of connection and loss-where speaking to one person silences the world, and losing them makes you speak to the world just to silence their memory. Inspired by a friend's words: "It is like you talk to one person and forget the world, and then you talk to the entire world to forget that one person."

    This is about loving someone and noticing when something changes, even if they don't say it. It's about picking up on the little things, feeling like you're giving your all, and quietly wondering if they still feel the same. It's not dramatic. It's not loud. Just that soft ache when love starts to feel one-sided, and you're too afraid to ask if you're right. If you've ever stayed quiet because you didn't want to seem like too much, this is for you.

    Clichés and Hypocrisy By Miss.Murigi > This isn't a self-help book. It's a mirror - cracked, but honest. A lyrical reflection of how we've learned to hide, pose, and perform for a world that no longer listens. We talk about healing but perform it for applause. We post our prayers but forget to live them. We scream authenticity while editing our imperfections away. In Clichés and Hypocrisy, Miss.Murigi holds the mirror steady - confronting the lies we've romanticized, the kindness we've commodified, and the masks we've worshipped. This is not about perfection. It's about unmasking. If you've ever whispered, "I'm fine" when you weren't - this book is your reflection.

    In this reality, emotions are not just feelings - they are characters. Some small. Some loud. Some soft-spoken, yet impossible to ignore. They appear at random, live under the skin, behind the eyes, between breaths. Some arrive uninvited. Some wait patiently to be seen. There are too many of them to name. Too many to fully understand. They don't wear labels. They don't introduce themselves. Sometimes they arrive disguised - familiar faces with unfamiliar voices. Sometimes, two emotions look almost identical, but they are not twins. Nobody is a twin here. One might whisper comfort while the other cuts with silence. One might teach, the other only echoes. Each story explores them - sometimes as a friend, sometimes as a stranger. This is not a perfect map of the emotional spectrum. This is just a journal from inside it.
