It was supposed to be just another day.
Cool weather.
Tired bodies.
One last graduation practice before freedom.
Three girls bound by years of friendship,
but divided by belief.
Claudia doesn't believe in anything she can't explain.
Regina keeps secrets she won't admit-
not even to herself.
Anika clings to hope,
even when it feels like no one is listening anymore.
They were only waiting for a ride home.
But something else came for them.
A woman in a veil.
The moment she spoke, the words twisted.
It wasn't a greeting.
Not small talk.
But a reckoning.
A message they were never meant to hear.
The longer they listened,
the clearer it became-
something was wrong.
The air grew colder.
The road stayed empty.
And the bus never came.
Maybe... not all of them were meant to leave.
Because beneath her veil is no ordinary woman.
And behind her words lies a truth meant to deceive.
Will they make it home?
Or was this the last stop they were ever meant to reach?

📌 NEW & UPDATED VERSION [Written in English] LOVE KILLA In the crime-ridden city of Saint La Vella, hope comes with a deadly price. Years ago, rogue scientist Dr. Travis Raymundo attempted the unthinkable-turning humans into immortals. But when a catastrophic earthquake destroyed his lab, he vanished, leaving behind nothing but rumors and ashes. Now, ex-politician Volga Duerkson has built La Vella University-a beacon of free education and promise. But beneath its clean halls and golden reputation, shadows whisper of secrets darker than death. Killa, a mysterious spy from the North, is sent to infiltrate the university on a mission that could change everything. Born different and aware of her limits, Killa avoids what's bad for her-but curiosity pulls her toward something she's never truly understood: human emotion. Stubborn and strange in her own way, she starts to open up-not through love, but through friendship, guidance, and the rare comfort of someone who truly sees her. As crime and chaos rise around her, Killa must ask herself: Will exploring these unfamiliar feelings save her-or destroy her? But emotions come with a price. And in a place where truth kills faster than bullets, even love can be a weapon-or the noose that chokes her soul. Some hearts were never meant to beat. Some feelings were never meant to bloom. But once they do... they never let go. ⚠️ CONTENT WARNING! This story contains brutal scenes, criminal activities, offensive language, and mature content that may not be suitable for young readers.

A longing she's hidden for years, sketched only in glances and unspoken wishes. As the story unfolds, Lia is drawn into moments that challenge her to grow: an unexpected friendship with a classmate who sees the world differently, an art competition that forces her to confront what she truly feels, and the quiet heartbreak of realizing some things-no matter how beautiful-aren't meant to be. In a season of music festivals, lingering gazes, and slowly letting go, Lia begins to understand that growing up isn't just about finding love-it's about finding the courage to choose yourself, especially when your heart wants to do otherwise. A gentle, atmospheric story about timing, quiet bravery, and the art of loving-in all the ways that matter.
