Their Desire
People think of me as a rich snobbish bastard but their perspective about me never bothers me because they are all insignificant beings who abhor me not because of my personality but because they want to live my life and unfortunately, they can’t.
Yet she was different, when we met for the first time, she kept with my obnoxious personality and endured my temperament till I came to adore her. And with time that adoration took the shape of love.
But I never dared to tell her about my feelings thinking that my declaration might damage our friendship. Still, I hated the thought of any other guy approaching her, so I used all my means to keep them away from her.
But then she left me, making my heart yearn for her presence.
After a long time when I had learned to live without her, she came back into my life.
She was in pain and I could see it in her eyes, and I was afraid that she would leave me again if I confess.
But all changed when I saw her with my best friend. He had pulled her into a tight hug, patting her back reassuringly while kissing her forehead repeatedly.
That day something changed in me, and I realized that she doesn’t deserve my love.
Hence, I started to loathe her, torturing her in every possible way.
But still, somewhere in my heart, I desired her.

Not So Ordinary
This story revolves around the life of 4 different people:
Sara: a high schooler with a conservative personality who’s good at only one thing; studying, but she studies well only to maintain her reputation as “the genius one” with no aim in life. Till now when the SAT is just around the corner, she doesn’t know which path to take because nothing interests her.
Next comes the heartbreaker, Elijah: a college dropout, during his first year in college he changed his major 5 times and then finally left college; his father being a very laidback person wasn’t affected by his son’s antics. Now he’s 24 with a high school degree doing random jobs because he must support himself overall. His good looks get him all the girls, but he can’t stay with a girl longer than a month because after a month they start to get clingy, wanting attention whereas all he wants in a relationship is physical intimacy.
Then comes Charlotte: age 33, a doctor, she had spent all her 20s paying her student loans but is still in debt because of his father’s health condition. Because of this reason, all man who approaches her run away; no one wants a woman whose 70% pay is used to pay off her debt monthly. So, she’s called “The pitiful doctor/spinster” by her relatives.
And in the end, comes Mr. William: a schoolteacher, who had been teaching the same subject at the same school for the past 10 years. He’s a very intellectual person and could do much better with his life but one thing that he had never done is to take a risk, although his monotonous routine bores him still he keeps living the same repetitive life.
These 4 people who are living in different worlds have something in common, their lives are repetitive with no challenges_ in simple words they are ORDINARY.
These 4 Ordinary people don’t know what is waiting for them, entangled in a world of murder, crime, trafficking, mafias, politics, and everything bad; wait and see how their lives will get connected.
