Blessed day everyone! This story is purely fictional that came and originated from my mind and imagination. The names of the characters, places, and familiar events that you will read in this novel are part of the writer's imagination and are just coincidence.
Forgive me for the misused of some words because I am just a beginner in this field. I am not a professional writer, I am here beacuse I just want to share my little talent in writing for me to express the thoughts that comes from my heart and mind.
Thank you so much for your understanding! Hope you enjoy reading my first novel. Happy reading!
