https://www.patreon.com/RavensURL Amelia Patrick was your average college student and gamer. Her life was pretty full between her coursework and normal life during the day and her time as a Chronicler and Magical Academy Instructor in Awakened Aspirations Online at night. Suddenly she's dealing with what, time travelers? Virtual Reality ending super level quests? Singing to monsters? Was that a cooking showdown? Amelia just wanted to putter around in her favorite online game not be involved in some super elaborate game world-ending nonsense. There's something to be said for simplicity, and after she is somewhat forcibly recruited into the party led by the enigmatic Devil in White, Aidan, it takes all her wits to just stay afloat. That's not even mentioning the one-armed hurricane named Raven who seems to be taking every possible chance to drive Amelia crazy. Or the tall and handsome Forsythe, a swordsman of incredible skill, few words, and cold eyes. And who is Fred? Why should she fear him? Or not fear him for that matter? --------------------- Vol. I Amelia and her compatriots adventure forth in an all original VRMMO named Awakened Aspirations Online, run by a powerful corporate AI where the upper ceiling of content has yet to be found, skills are being discovered every day, and it's popular to let the world watch you while you quest. ------------------- "You need rules at some point. It was a world far beyond normal rules. Magic. Skills. HP. True death." Aidan sighed. "The rules were 'strike the enemy', 'press forward', 'you are a human being', 'live', 'don't let them die', 'this is the real world', 'laugh and love', 'mourn and grieve', 'remember'." "What's 10?" Amelia asked, counting twice. "Secret," Forsythe said. He was grinning uncharacteristically. "C'mon. We gotta tell her!" Raven complained. "Make an exception." Aidan finally supplied. "Well, what is it then?" Amelia demanded. "Make an exception," Aidan repeated. "Look I get the other ones, mostly, but that last one…" Amelia complained. "There comes a spot in your journey where sometimes you have to break a rule. So we had to have a rule about it." Aidan explained. "Like when?" Amelia chuckled. "Those are pretty all-encompassing generic rules." "Like when we fought the final boss and died," Aidan said simply, silencing her. "I imagined more," Forsythe admitted. "Rules?" Aidan asked, perplexed. "No, from death," Forsythe said.

In his forties, his life ended quietly and without drama, marked by missed opportunities, unfinished dreams, and a sense that he had always been a step behind everyone else—until the moment he collapsed and saw a stunningly beautiful woman holding his hand, crying with a tenderness that confused him, because he could not remember when someone had ever loved him so deeply. When he wakes up again, he finds himself nineteen years old, back in his first year of college, sitting in a familiar classroom filled with youthful chatter, bright futures, and a life that feels light enough to be rewritten properly this time. Along with his second chance comes something unexpected. A Fated Lover System, gentle and unobtrusive, quietly awakens within him, rewarding him whenever he spends time with, cares for, or simply pays attention to the one person destined to be by his side. And that person is not the popular girl, nor the campus beauty everyone talks about. She is the quiet, petite girl with long bangs who sits near the edge of the room, dresses simply, speaks softly, and somehow fades into the background—yet she is the same woman who, in another life, loved him patiently when he was struggling, ordinary, and unsure of himself. This time, he notices her early. This time, he walks beside her, studies with her, shares simple meals, and fills his days with small moments that slowly grow into something warm and steady, while the system gently rewards him for every sincere interaction, encouraging him to cherish what truly matters rather than chase empty success. As college life unfolds, he begins building a comfortable future through smart investing, small business ideas, and practical decisions shaped by experience, not desperation, creating a life that grows richer not only in money, but in peace, stability, and shared happiness. There are no villains to defeat, no dramatic twists waiting to tear them apart—only two people growing closer day by day, supported by a system that exists to remind him that love, once noticed, can be nurtured into something lasting and beautiful. This is a story about second chances, gentle romance, and a man who returns to nineteen—not to change the world, but to live a warm, fulfilling life with the girl who was always meant to be noticed.

The novel examines a futuristic society, called the World State, that revolves around science and efficiency. In this society, emotions and individuality are conditioned out of children at a young age, and there are no lasting relationships because “every one belongs to every one else”

At nineteen, you’ve seen enough to have opinions but not enough to be sure. That’s exactly where Kushal Singh writes from in “Nineteen in Retrospect,” a serialised memoir of lessons and lived moments before twenty. In candid, unpolished chapters, he traces the arc of his life so far: the thrill and heartbreak of friendships, the sting of betrayal, the confusing pull of first attractions, the weight of social anxiety, the stubbornness of dreams and ambitions, and the quiet faith that steadies him through it all. More than a chronological autobiography, this book is a mosaic of observations and reflections. Each chapter stands on its own — a story, a thought, a scene — but together they form a portrait of a young person trying to understand the world and his place in it. By sharing his point of view without preaching, Kushal invites readers to recognise their own teenage selves in his words and to see that growing up is as much about losing and doubting as it is about finding and believing.

Ek shaadi... dher saari lights, music, hasi-mazaak aur khushiyon ka mahaul. Main bhi sabki tarah excited thi. Naye kapde pehne the, family ke saath enjoy kar rahi thi aur soch bhi nahi sakti thi ki kuch hi der mein meri life ka sabse embarrassing moment mera intezaar kar raha hoga. Sab kuch bilkul normal chal raha tha, tabhi achanak mujhe ehsaas hua ki mere periods shuru ho gaye hain. Main ekdum shock ho gayi, kyunki meri expected date bhi nahi thi aur mere paas ek bhi sanitary pad nahi tha. Pehle to mujhe laga shayad main galat soch rahi hoon, lekin jab maine check kiya to meri dress stain ho chuki thi. Us pal aisa laga jaise meri saari khushi ek second mein khatam ho gayi ho. Itne saare logon ke beech khud ko sambhalna bahut mushkil tha. Mujhe darr tha ki kahin kisi ki nazar meri dress par na pad jaaye. Main kisi se help maangne ki himmat bhi nahi kar pa rahi thi. Shayad sharam thi, ya darr tha ki log kya sochenge. Sabse badi problem ye thi ki mere paas pad nahi tha. Bahut dhoondhne ke baad bhi mujhe koi sanitary pad nahi mila. Aakhir mein, majboori mein mujhe pehli baar kapde ka istemal karna pada. Woh experience bilkul comfortable nahi tha, lekin us waqt mere paas aur koi option bhi nahi tha. Us mushkil waqt mein meri mummy meri sabse badi strength bani. Unhone mujhe panic karne nahi diya. Unhone mujhe sambhala, situation ko handle kiya aur mujhe safe feel karaya. Agar us din meri mummy mere saath na hoti, to shayad main us situation se itni aasani se bahar nahi nikal paati. Us din ke baad meri soch hamesha ke liye badal gayi. Maine ek bahut important lesson seekha—kabhi bhi bina sanitary pad ke ghar se bahar nahi nikalna chahiye. Ab chahe main school jaun, college jaun, shopping karun ya kisi shaadi mein, mere bag mein hamesha ek pad zaroor hota hai. Ye sirf meri story nahi hai. Shayad har dusri ladki kabhi na kabhi aisi situation face karti hai, lekin sharam aur society ke darr ki wajah se kabhi kisi ko batati nahi. Main chahti hoon ki meri kahani padhkar har ladki ye samjhe ki periods koi sharm ki baat nahi hain. Humein sirf thodi awareness aur preparation ki zarurat hoti hai. Kabhi-kabhi zindagi ki sabse embarrassing memories hi humein sabse important lessons sikha jaati hain. Aur meri life ka woh lesson tha—"Always carry a pad, because periods don't wait for the perfect time."
