Lost Joy

[ Warning ] explicit language What would you do if you met someone who can not understand the meaning of joy? Happiness? Love? “It’s not that I believe it doesn’t make sense. I know it doesn’t.” “But Calla, how can you live without love? Joy? Warmth?” “And how can you feed with it? Can you eat it? Will it protect you from a rapist? Will it give you a shelter at night? Will it make you healthy?” “From what you say I can see that you think money is the most important thing” “Money?” Calla laughs and saying, “Can I eat money? I don’t work because I eat, I eat because I work. Without food I won’t have energy, I only do what I must. Money is not a goal, money is one of the means to reach my goal.” “So all you think about is food?” “You really don’t know me. Work, gain money, buy food, eat food, exercise to not develop indigestion, eat properly to not develop gastritis and etc” “You think you don’t need anything else? Really?” “Not all of us have a choice... I’ve never felt sad because love if that’s what you’re asking and how can I miss something that I’ve never felt?”signs Calla, “My dad was a criminal and he wanted me dead before I was even born. My mother was a mad woman that would’ve killed me in order to feel loved. That’s what love and hate are. Harmful extreme feelings that take your ability to think properly. Do you no what hunger is? Necessity to eat. Do you know what happens if you neglect your hunger? Starvation. Just remember that, again, some of us don’t have a chance. Some of us abstain from eating lunch in order to have dinner. The nights with an empty stomach are long. Trust me, I know it, I never had a chance, not when it came to food not when it came to love” Calla stops to breath a little and gazes at the man in front of her “I’ve never loved and I’ve never been loved still it didn’t kill me. You’re right, I only work, eat and sleep. I think about nothing else. So what? What’s wrong with that? Why do I have to live my life the way you want me to live? Can’t you just give me a break?” “I can’t” says the man, “I can’t and I won’t” he raises his voice, “I love you Calla, you have been loved either you recognize it or not, I love you” he sees Calla standing up and then he rushes to hold her wrists, “You are mine Calla, you belong with me... I’ll show joy. I’ll teach you love. I’ll never let you starve, of anything, no matter what” “tsk” ...

Killjoys

Killjoys

Aljoša Rodinger, pen name AL Rodinger, is a 21-year-old writer and amateur boxer currently studying history and English literature at the University of Maribor. He was born on 1.7.1999 in Maribor, Slovenia and attended the Rada Robič Elementary School in Limbuš. He began to take interest in the English language from a very early age and by the beginning of his 6th grade was already a fluent speaker of the language. After finishing his elementary school education, he attended the First Grammar School in Maribor as a student of the classics, where he was exposed to a lot of in-depth history, as well as both Latin and ancient Greek. It is there where he began and later on finished writing his book, Killjoys. It is also around this time where he began practicing boxing. After graduating, he enrolled in the University of Maribor as a student of both history and English literature. Currently, he is also employed at the Marbior Slovene National Theatre as an usher. “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, if you can meet with triumph and disaster and treat those two impostors just the same. Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, and - which is more - you'll be a man, my son.” These are the words that start our tale of four friends, their deep and personal friendship and their own coming of ages, where they finally come to terms with their own flaws and manage to find perfection in being imperfect and broken. It is a story about accepting yourself with all of your strengths and weakness, living life with all of its ups and downs, experiencing pain and joy, confronting both your inner demons as well as the people closest to you. Our character’s lives are entwined with discrimination, hatred, addiction and death, yet it always seems that there is some resemblance of light, of contempt at the end of the dark and long tunnel before us. We just simply have to find a way to get to it and make our own path.

A novel that brings a race to another world to develop
"The Grassi Fiend" was a sports-football novel written by the author, True Wolf Soul. It told the story that he was a madman on the field! He was the strongest devil in football! When Demacia's light shone down from the sky. The spikes of the Armored Dragon Turtle condensed on his back. A magic crystal arrow shot out from his hand. He stepped on the rainbow somersault cloud. This grassy field had become his hunting ground! The overall evaluation of this book was "Wolf Soul's new book, this one was written seriously." grain and grass The new book was currently in the 13 - 14 season of the Liverpool Premier League. If there was no investment, he could invest and help the author. Writing about football was not easy.| The protagonist of this book was a striker, and the author was a Liverpool fan. According to the readers 'reactions, this should be a very successful book written by her. The protagonist also had a system buff, suitable for readers who were also Liverpool fans and readers who simply liked to read football system literature. "Interstellar Travel" was a sci-fi space novel written by Jiaqi. QL. It told the story of how in this dazzling and colorful world, technology, abilities, martial arts, and countless other races, strong or weak, lived in this boundless era in their own way. The mysterious and vast universe was filled with countless legends. "The Great Sculptor" was an urban and entertainment star novel by the author, Seedless Melon. It told the story: Carve a god for the unbelieving world, carve me under the god, sing for the bustling city, carve a demon, carve an altar, carve a claw, accompany me, carve a crown, put it on my head, carve glory and treasure around me, from now on I am the king of the world, carve on the war and the death of life, die in disaster, carve out the universe and the sky, carve out the eternal starry sky, carve out the hero who died in sacrifice and peace, put on the armor again at the end of time, I have a carving knife, the world is soft and tough yellow mud, melancholy The overall evaluation of this book was that this book was an excellent and refreshing novel. It was easy to act cool and slap people's faces. The sense of acquisition and anticipation were closely linked. However, this book is not just a cool novel. I believe that people who have the same experience of artistic creation can read more from this book. They can be as deeply moved as I am, and can also see that its background is cold, deep, and hidden pain. It was like admiring a giant creature in the deep sea. While they were amazed by its divine workmanship, they could not help but fall into madness. Creation itself was a painful process, and geniuses would be more sensitive to pain. But this pain was bright, different from a similarly well-received literary masterpiece at the same time. If that book was the mediation of a middle-aged scholar who was unwilling to be ordinary, then this book was a passionate young genius who galloped in the field of imagination. That book was realistic, but this one was undoubtedly romantic. In comparison, I'm more optimistic about this book because people always have to throw away their superficial desires and dream big dreams. Under the author's perfect pen, the despair and pain in the fate curse became a part of the vitality of the work. It was sad but not sad. I shed tears, not because of grief, but because I was moved. Finally, to creation, to passion, to madness. In the field of art, we are all ignorant children, devoutly chasing the footsteps of God.| This author has a way of writing about art. At least, it's enough to fool me, who doesn't know anything about art. This book isn't purely about art. It can only be said to be a Chinese Cthulhu web novel mixed with artistic elements. However, even with this, I feel that I have been influenced by art. Cthulhu's Elements were not bad either, and he did not lose any points at all. What attracted me the most was actually the protagonist's supercilious and crazy personality that didn't care about anything for the sake of art. Full score of five stars, my rating is four and a half stars| It was a new book by the author of Soul Painter. It had a similar theme, but it had a different flavor. Compared to The Painter, this book had more of the despair and madness unique to the Ke family, but it was still satisfying enough.| The new book of the Seedless Melon Master inherited the unique flavor of the Soul Painter, but it was darker, crazier, and more intoxicating. It felt like a dangerous whirlpool with the value of appreciating ugliness, attracting curious lambs into a trap and dancing a song of death and despair.| [Weird Bean] This was a very complete story. Even though the main character's persona isn't as likable as Gao Fan's, this story made me like him. However, it had to be said that Shawn didn't like the plot after he came out of the Miao village. What space war (tactical retreat). If he suddenly returned after his inspiration dried up, his skills improved, and his reputation fell silent, he would create a level 10 pinnacle work and then directly talk about it the day after tomorrow. He felt that the story would be much cleaner. Shawn and Gao Fan were both typical "paranoid artists". However, Gao Fan was more introverted and artistic, while Xiao Ne was more violent and crazy. Compared to "The Soul Painter", the plot was much more refined. Although the early parts of the school scene were not as good as "The Soul Painter", the subsequent fast-paced parts were much better. [Weird Bean][Soul Painter] See comments. He was a little impatient and did not continue reading. He read the summary of the comments section. The story is not bad, it has the beauty of an Ouroboros, but I still like the part with more realistic plots. Every time the author wrote about the chaotic world, he didn't feel the slightest sense of involvement, and the rhythm was also chaotic. Qiuqiu's author, Soul King, should stop writing plots like 'Buddha is Dao'. He really couldn't bear to read it every time. Especially the part where he was close to the mortal, it felt like he had gone to the wrong set. "Weird Bean","Strange God on Paper" He felt that he was dragged down by the name. It was clearly a very good entertainment article and a mentally retarded movie king in the entertainment industry. Especially the part of "After the Waves", it was amazing. The world he transmigrated to was similar to Lord of the Mysteries, and the world he transmigrated to was similar to the naming of the night, but the main character had a clone. Actually, the setting of the world was not bad, except that the author was still stubbornly writing about the Western Fantasy Zhuge Liang. But I must say that Earth is written too well. If it was written separately, it would have done well. However, Truman's mental setting was more abstract. Sigh, in short, after reading so many books by the author, other than the Golden Immortal Fruit in "Ten Thousand Years" that made me so angry that I didn't continue reading, I really liked the other urban plots. It just gave me the feeling that if there were fewer jinxes, my results would be much better. Starting from Bilibili to Make Ghost Movies was a suspense-mystery novel by the author, Shanshan Shanbao. It told the story: "I want to be a director. I want to make real short films." When Zhang En wrote this sentence in his notebook, his era had begun. Starting from Bilibili, countless short videos bombarded people's senses. "Myself","Danger","Bride","Medicine"..."Mr. Zhang En, may I ask why your actors don't accept interviews when you've made so many short films?" Zhang En smiled slightly and pretended to be deep, not answering. In fact, he was cursing in his heart,"Nonsense, if they weren't humans, they would have come out long ago!" The overall evaluation of this book's reading list was: "A novel with a lot of thoughts, combining life and novel chicken soup together." cheer| The protagonist traveled through the strange world and used his own efforts to get the ghosts to help him watch the movie. He felt that the plot of the movie was not bad.| After reading it, there were very few. I can only say, Mom, you're my mom. The child is so hungry. Quick, feed my mom. Will mom's food be as delicious as it is now? Mommy, I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry Faster, faster, faster (Repeat)| This new book is quite interesting. It's supernatural and entertaining, strange and realistic. Let's go and take a look. This book was not the so-called face-slapping novel. Those who liked Haunted Houses could read this book. "One Piece: I'm Born to Rebel" was a light novel by the author, Tiger Leopard Leiyin. It told the story of a natural-born rebel who appeared on the Bellamy Pirates 'new pirate ship, the Witch's Tongue, in the North Sea in the year 1517 of the Sea Garden Calendar! As long as Gayne could defeat his superiors and kill the targets in the same organization who had a higher status than him, he would be able to get corresponding feedback from these targets. Physique, swordsmanship, fist techniques, six moves, domineering aura, and even the Devil Fruit. All the talents of the higher-ups who were killed could be chosen by Gaine. The hyena Bellamy was just the beginning. The fallen officers in the navy, the seven kings, the legendary pirates…successfully betrayed, defected, and caused trouble again and again. These people who once stood above Gayne became stepping stones to help him climb to the throne of the void! <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
