It's not always Black and White.

Two potential lovers, who never realised how much they needed each other until they met.

Bea, a black girl in a predominantly white school, believes that no one will love her and treat her as she should be treated because of the colour of her skin. However, her previous relationship with a black boy, Ryan, enlightens her and makes her realise that she can have a positive relationship with any boy no matter their skin colour.

When she meets Josh, she finds love, a love that she has never felt before. Someone that loves her for all of her imperfections and perfections.

But will it end well?

Will Ryan get in the way? 

You'll have to read to find out!

It’s not always Black and White

I walked away from Josh's house, my heart heavy with a mix of emotions. Josh and his mum had apologised for his dad's behavior, but the sting of his insensitive comments still lingered. I needed a friend, someone who understood, so I called Jess and asked her to come over. As I opened the door to let her in, my eyes were already welling up with tears. 


"Hey," Jess said softly, giving me a tight hug as soon as she stepped inside. "You okay?" 


I shook my head, my voice cracking. "No, not really." 


We moved to the living room and settled on the couch, both of us with ice cream and vodka in hand. It was like a makeshift therapy session, and I desperately needed it. 


"So, spill it," Jess said, her voice a mix of concern and determination. 


I took a deep breath, trying to steady my emotions. "Josh's dad... he asked me if my real name was Bea, and then he asked if I didn't use my real name because it's a 'black thing.'" 


Vodka therapy is the best kind…
