Is time travelling is ACTUALLY possible?
Every evening as we prepare to rest, we ask ourselves what tomorrow will bring. The future is the biggest mystery of all, captivating the curiosity of every soul. We ponder the uncertainties that may lie ahead and yearn to catch a glimpse of what's to come. Will our lives be filled with the dreams we hold dear, or is tragedy lurking in the shadows? The specter of death, an inevitable fate that eventually claims us all, looms over us. Beyond our earthly existence, the universe continues its relentless march forward, a breathtaking symphony of birth, destruction, and renewal. The cosmos, a boundless realm of wonder, challenges our understanding with its enigmatic phenomena, and the limitless stars that adorn the sky spark contemplation of an otherworldly intelligence. For within this infinite mystery, we find the extraordinary and the unexplainable, beckoning us to look beyond the known and embrace the allure of the cosmic unknown.

really close to Joy's mom we hung out a lot and I even helped her out at photo shoots sometimes modeling for her one day I was shocked to see my picture on the cover of a big magazine I wish Joy liked fashion like you do thank you for always being here for me I smiled and thanked her for making me feel like part of her family but something was off with joy she started keeping to herself staying in her room and didn't want to hang out or do anything with me when I tried talking to her she just said I want to be left alone I was really worried about Joy's Sudden Change and couldn't figure out what I did wrong I kept trying to fix things even apologizing but nothing worked she sometimes even yelled at me I had to give her space even though it hurt a lot one evening at dinner Joy's mom shared some exciting news arann your teacher called your college aptitude test scores were amazing I'm so proud of you turning to Joy her mom asked and how did yours go honey oh I didn't bother with

she began skipping school and got mad whenever someone tried to talk about what she was doing Joy's Behavior toward me got worse turning her into what felt like a real life villain she constantly tried to make trouble for me and even though her mom always ended up forgiving me it just made Jo angrier for example Joy switched her unfinished homework with mine confusing my teacher luckily the teacher sorted it out joy made a fake social media account with my name posting embarrassing stuff it took a while but I showed it wasn't me and shut it down Joy hit a library book I borrowed causing me to get late fees her mom found it later and figured out Joy's trick Joy messed with my bike's brakes I felt something was wrong before I wrote it and stopped myself from getting hurt this escalated one afternoon when Joy's mom was away on a business trip and her dad was away at work Joy decided to do something drastic she turned the backyard into a makeshift movie theater I'm not sure showing a movie here is a good idea well it's better than having you around all the time the backyard quickly filled with people the projector buzzing to life I stayed inside trying to avoid the chaos and was flipping through a magazine when suddenly someone stumbled into my room oops my bad I was looking for the kitchen hey is that a magazine about vintage cars my dad collects them and I've read a bunch about them is that the issue with the 60s muscle cars yes it is his name was Brian we discovered we shared a lot of interests and spent the evening chatting in the kitchen just as we were really connecting the screen outside fell over with a crash suddenly joy and her mom came in look Mom I knew it Maryann set up this whole movie thing just to hang out with her boyfriend boyfriend that's not true why would I organize this party Joy you're my only friend here then explain him being in your room this must be your party enough Joy I don't think Maryann would do this but young man it's time for you to go home please Joy looked so angry and stormed off she stopped talking to me and just ignored my existence I kept talking to Brian having him in my life was great he was nicelooking and well-mannered his family had money and he shared his dream of becoming a doctor with me a few days later Joy's mom called me into the living room where I found my dad sitting I really care about you and loved having you here but things with Joy are getting tough she's feeling left out plus your dad's been talking to us he's made some changes wants you back and misses you a lot the past few months have been really tough without you I love you and want you to come home I didn't say much when I feel a lot I find it hard to speak but I managed to say I'll pack my things I moved back with Dad and honestly things weren't bad he had really improved and hanging out with him wasn't bad at all but I ended up blocking Brian I didn't have a strong reason to cut him off I felt like I didn't deserve him and just needed a fresh start a few months after finishing High School I couldn't go to college right away dad didn't have the money because we had big hospital bills for mom so I started working as a pizza delivery person it was tough but I never thought about quitting I worked really hard and finally got into college I planed to study economics and maybe even start my own business someday while studying I took any job I could get eventually I managed to rent a tiny apartment with a of the city dump it wasn't much but it was mine I could finally study and rest there dad even helped me buy a used car for my delivery job things were starting to get better I kept working hard aiming for success I often thought about joy and her parents and my mom too I missed them a lot with exams coming up I studied all night and worked all day I felt Unstoppable like nothing could slow me down but one day while out on a delivery I suddenly felt very dizzy and the next thing I knew I crashed into a tree I was rushed to the hospital everything hurt but what pained me the most was my thoughts why couldn't things just go right for once I hugged my pillow and bursted into tears then a young doctor came in and I was shocked Brian is that really you he recognized me too I always thought I'd run into the girl who broke my heart again feeling embarrassed I just looked down and stayed quiet as usual Brian had finished medical school and was now an intern at the hospital I apologized and we chatted for for a while and swapped phone numbers over time we got closer and started dating Brian had the Kindest Heart and he even helped me with my college fees one day I went to the hospital to bring Brian's lunch and decided to visit mom afterward I entered her room and she looked so peaceful just like an angel I gently kissed her forehead mom I have to tell you something I tried to replace you I was so angry when I felt you gave up on me so I gave up on you I was angry at dtoo even though the poor man was struggling without you I used to be mad at Joy but as I got older I understood her and we made up I'm friends with her mom now too I love them but no love can match yours guess what I found out this morning I'm pregnant I'm going to surprise Brian tonight on our date I think he's going to propose and I'll say yes Mom I'm happy but my happiness isn't complete without you tears overwhelmed me and I laid my head on her hands when suddenly I felt her hands move Overjoyed I ran to the doctor like a little kid shouting my mommy is is awake my mommy is awake

I had a feelings for him
The air in the small cafe felt thick with unspoken words. Lily, her cheeks still flushed from the confession, clutched her iced coffee, the melting ice mimicking the way her heart was breaking. Across from her sat Jake, his brow furrowed in a way that made his face seem even more handsome, if that was possible.
