[UNDER MAJOR EDITING]

Ever since I was a child, I can see the strings.
Strings that connect us to other people.
Strings that reveal what we feel towards others.
Strings that can change it's color.
From Red to Black.
Just like love, that can turn into hatred.
From White to Black.
Just like friendships, that can turn into betrayal.


Alice Jade Martinez is an 18-year-old girl possessing the ability to see the fated strings. Working as a matchmaker, she bonds people to their fated partner.

But as nice as it sounds, her gift comes with a curse. She's forbidden to fall in love. If she does, the string's curse will activate and instantly kill that person... She fell in love once.
And he died. That's why she swears she'll never fall in love again.

A novel with overbearing characters. A series of love stories bonded by the fated string.

This is a story about a girl who can't fall in love. And a boy who can't feel anything.

Everything must be perfectly tailored. Iyesha must be lady-like and elaborately disciplined into a well respected and confident woman. Her mother works hard to make her that way. 


Back in grade school days, she wouldn't let any boys get five meter close to Iyesha. Her mother was a teacher. So of course that's a given. 


Yeah. Almost all. But there's one boy her mother permitted to get close to Iyesha. More like she instigated Iyesha to always be with that 'guy' back in highschool. His parents we're the school directors. Not to mention he's rich. He owns the school. Literally.
