In the tranquil waters of Hawai'i, Hokulani and Nikau wonder if it's possible for a song to go on forever. ***** For as long as Hokulani can remember, she's always felt like she's treading water. Everything she loves becomes a means to escape from what's happening around her or, worse, the unsteadiness of her mind. She even finds her passion for music slipping through her grasp, though she tries her best not to completely let that go. And even though the arrival of an up-and-coming musician from Aotearoa causes waves, she's unable to fully enjoy her life. Unable to release that breath she feels like she's been holding onto ever since her father passed away. When her family is hit with complicated news, the Kahananui woman must make difficult decisions for themselves, including one Hokulani isn't sure she fully understands. But even when their choices are made, they bring up memories they've all been trying their best to forget, forcing them to face the reality deep inside the family's hearts. Hokulani takes refuge in the comfort her shared feelings with Nikau bring, but just because she wants something, doesn't mean it's enough. She knows she has a lot to work through on her own, and with the understanding that his year on the island will eventually come to an end, the two of them spend endless nights wondering if they can somehow make a song go on forever. ***** 2025 AMBYS GRAND FAVORITE | contemporary 2025 ASTANIA AWARDS FIRST PLACE WINNER | wild card » featured on @wattpad @romance @ContemporaryLit @SocialThemes and @Ambassadors « All rights reserved © Stephanie Midorii, smidorii

Synopsis: In a world where Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind are controlled by their own gods and goddesses, they find they need to create an island where they can preserve their elements. Unable to agree on how the island should be formed, they split to make islands of their own. Centuries later, a group of ten children travel through the dense forest to Ra'i Valley. They had finally come of age to hear the ancient story of their islands and tribes. Ten uniquely different children, all with their own special appearances, had gathered for their first ritual. Upon arriving, and traveling at the base of the sacred ridgelines, their leading elder Manaia begins to tell them of the story about where they came from, the devastation the islands suffered and where the islands may go in the future. The enormous brown hair, aqua skinned demigod with emerald green eyes has the help of other demigods retelling the tales of past generations. The children were told about a world, where the gods and goddesses of the main elemental life could not agree upon an island to hold all of their individual elements. From the disagreement, the four individuals set off to create different islands which would only contain their element. Waikaia, Vulcánia, Ko'terra and Zephaura were formed. Each island only held fire, water, earth or wind. To protect their islands, mystical beasts were created by the gods and goddesses. A history full of twists, turns and unexpected surprises. Once the children leave Ra'i Valley, their lives will be forever changed. "This is not one of your 'Once upon a time... In a faraway land... Happily ever after' stories... This is a story of courage, determination, and prosperity. It is the story of our ancestors and the history of our land! Let us go back a thousand years to a time before our islands were discovered..."

Stepping closer to me as I tried to step further back trying to create whatever space I could get. My back hit the cold concrete wall alarming me that I had nowhere else to go. I looked down trying not to meet his cold glare as I held in tears that were just waiting to come running down. 'How much I wish the floor can swallow me whole right now' I thought His index finger firmly came under my chin and harshly made me look at him "But whatever it is....stay the fuck away from me. You're dead to me Jazz" with that he finally stepped back and walked away. I stared at the retreating body as tears finally found its way down my cheeks.Painful memories of the past slowly and painfully crawled its way into my head as I sank myself down to the floor with both hands covering my eyes wishing the memories would disappear....but it didn't.

She looked at me. Like... really looked at me. And I swear I never felt more close to another human being. "Jimin, Jimin, Jimin." Her voice was soft as she shook her head. "You don't even know how much of an inspiration you are to other people. To your fans." I held my breath watching as she raised her hand to cup my face, wiping away my tears. "Insecurities? Throw em all out. People are bitter for a reason, but that shouldn't affect you. Try to think of WHY they became bitter, then try to understand them. And trust me, you'll probably cry when you figure it out. Take it from someone who knows." She let her hand down, looking away. "T-thank you." I whispered. The corners of her mouth went up slightly as she nodded. And as she stood up to leave, my heart started to pound. Threatening to explode as she walked away. That was when I realized... I loved her. Not like. Love.
