2024-10-29 19:42:56Love stories in literature usually narrate how two characters meet in a certain place for the first time which would lead to multiple encounters since destiny is real in the fictional universe. The romance either starts from the famous term “love at first sight” or from the multiple encounters that the characters have. A story will never be a story without a conflict as the romantic relationship between the characters would not be happy all the way from the beginning until the end—but that does not mean they would always end up in a tragic situation. Love stories in a fictional universe mostly end up with a happy ending because destiny exists and will always be by the side of the two characters.
But love stories are not always nice. Some do not start in a vintage coffee shop or a school hallway in the first day of a school year, and some do not end up in a wedding as a happy ending. Love indeed is complex as it could either be a lifetime benefit or a permanent danger to an individual. But perhaps destiny does exist—but that does not mean destiny gives everyone a happy ending.
The question is, do the people involved in the world of crime deserve a happy ending? Or will destiny stay by their side to prove that love is more powerful than anything?

Favorite Crime 1: Lost Dream
Only darkness was flashed for hours as usual until the sound of the alarm slowly awakened her consciousness. For the past years, it became rare for Olivia to experience a dream in her slumber. At that point, she would most likely feel like she was new to the world if ever she had dreams again. Wanting the ringing sound that was piercing her ears to dissipate, the blonde reached for the alarm clock on the bedside table from her left without opening her eyes. Even after moving in to a new house, her alarm clock would always be on a bedside table from her left. A soft sigh escaped her lips as soon as she successfully turned the alarm off. Her eyes finally opened after a few seconds as she did not even flinch when her eyes were immediately met with a pair of hazel eyes from a short distance. “Good morning, Liv.” A warm smile spread across the flawless face of the man across her. “Good morning, Theo,” Olivia softly replied as she sat up on her bed and rubbed her eyes. Her eyes scanned t
Favorite Crime 2: Trigger
For the past years, Olivia lost the ability to have dreams in her sleep though she never bothered looking for an answer to it as she knew that she would just be having the same dream over and over again. Since it had been a long time since she experienced a dream, the blonde then started to wonder if she was finally dreaming for the first time again as she stood across the person whose face she never forgot about even after not seeing it for ten years.The blonde slowly looked at her from head to toe as she realized how much the latter changed after the years that passed, starting from her neck-length green hair. When her eyes met the pair of amber again, she briefly felt a shudder as she saw how emotionless they looked while staring directly into her soul.“Olivia.” The said woman gulped when she heard her slightly husky voice again after a long time. “You surprisingly look the same.”“D-Dakota,” was what she could only utter in response.There was no change on the taller woman’s bla
Favorite Crime 3: Start of 17
Ten years ago, it was the year 2012. Autumn had finally come with the leaves falling off from the trees and flying through the air with the freedom that they had from the arrival of a new season. Unfortunately, in this cruel world, not everyone was born to have the same freedom as the leaves even though a new season had come. No changes might still occur even when a new season comes which was why the change of seasons were sometimes never a big deal. But there were people who cared whether they had freedom or not because they would always continue to do whatever they want without caring about it no matter what the season was. One of them happened to be a 17-year-old girl who would never get into any trouble no matter what she does anyway. Back to the present, it was a new season—a start to a new school year. Some students would feel frustrated and unprepared for being forced to go to a place that could be considered as hell on earth for miserable students, while the students who were
Favorite Crime 4: Behind the Innocence Is a Devil
Plenty of people could be seen walking around near the school as the blonde felt her excitement coming back when she saw the huge building of her school again after months. Some of the students that were walking on their way to the school were familiar to her as she could feel that it was real—it was indeed the first day of school.“What time do I pick you up, Olivia?” the driver asked as he looked at her through the rearview mirror.“I’ll just call you,” Olivia replied as she took her small backpack and opened the door.“All right. Good luck!”The blonde smiled in response as she waved at the driver before walking toward the entrance gate of the school along the other students. She could have had the driver drop her off inside the campus since vehicles were allowed to enter but since she did not want to gain that kind of attention, she decided that it was better to be exposed to a lot of people in going to school.From a distance, it did not take long for Olivia to spot a tall boy wi
Favorite Crime 5: Black Mystery
Hours went by almost in a flash until it was finally lunchtime, which was everyone’s favorite time in a school day. All of the students were scattered across the hallways as most of them rushed to the cafeteria since they knew that the line to have their lunch would be long like hell if they were not hasty. It was expected that everywhere in the school would be noisy especially since it was the first day of school as the new teachers never bothered telling them off.Falling in line was never a big deal for Olivia and her three minions as they immediately went to take their seats at the table on the middle of the end rows. The four of them simultaneously brought out and placed their individual lunch bags on the table as they were the first ones to begin eating their lunch among most of the students who had to stand in the long line and wait for their turn to be served.“That new history teacher is so annoying. She ruined my morning,” Olivia grumbled as she opened the case of her utensi
Favorite Crime 6: New Interest
One thing about Olivia Jean was that if something catches her attention, there is no doubt for her to hold it as much as she can no matter what until she gets sick of it. That trait of hers could sometimes be a flaw or strength; a flaw because people could end up crying blood as a result to her selfish persistence, while it could also be a strength because she could save a person’s life with her power. Olivia was a powerful person, after all. Exactly seven days ago, she was just excited about going back to school finally as a superior; even though she did not have to necessarily wait until she was in her senior year to feel superior among other students. Hours later, her interest quickly diverted to a little black fluff ball that always wanders around the back of Tulip High. Though she was valid for that since the kitten was objectively adorable with its black fur and shining yellow eyes. “That’s right, Ethan! You’re finally learning, for fuck’s sake!” James shouted and clapped as he
Favorite Crime 7: Peculiar Stranger
The ice cream had been forgotten in just a second.In crime movies, the espionage agents spy on their suspects wherever they go to investigate any suspicious actions without getting caught—because if they do get caught, are they even a true spy?Olivia had never thought about what she really wanted to be in the future as she was still undecided on her future career. But with the way she was pulling off her fake ignorant act, she was once again qualified for another potential job.Dakota seemed to think that there were no eyes onto her by the way she did not seem tense while quietly slipping a whole cup of instant noodles in her jacket, which intrigued the blonde even more. Olivia had her body facing a shelf of candies—specifically right in front of strawberry-flavored candies which she disliked like what she told the poor boy from last week during lunch—while her eyes were constantly throwing secret glances to the direction of the shoplifter.What could comfort Olivia better than ice

Olivia is still alive.An article with a headline saying, “A 17-year-old female high school student who turned out to be Flyve City’s mayor was found stabbed to death in a dark alleyway”, was not going to be seen published on the front page of newspapers.As if nothing happened, Olivia was in her bedroom humming a pop song as she stepped out of the bathroom. Her father would want her to be asleep already at that hour, but she was not going to do what he wants.The smartphone that was charging on her dressing table vibrated as the blonde sat down on the chair by the table and turned the hair dryer on before opening her phone.Theodork: your three friends went out on a date with ethan after practice todayOlivia: expected. date? more like a gang bangTheodork: lol aren’t you friends with themOlivia: u really think i’m friends with those losers?Theodork: right. i thought so lolThe blonde started to dry her hair after deciding to not reply to Theodore’s last text message when her eyes

In another place. In another fate. In another universe. Dakota wakes up on her squeaky single bed. It is another day to start the day. She gets up from her bed and heads straight to the bathroom to begin brushing her teeth. Her clothes that she will be using for the day is already prepared inside her small wooden closet. If only her room is only for herself, she would have bought a bigger closet. Dakota looks at herself on the mirror one last time once she is completely ready to leave. She runs her hand through her newly dyed orange hair and lets out a sigh, realizing what her new hair color means. A new hair color means a new chapter. And the new chapter in question is a new semester. Dakota walks out of the dormitory and joins the flock of students entering the university where she studies at.

Favorite Crime 60: Last I Love You
The venue that was filled with delightful laughter and loud music was now filled with screams of terror and gunshots. The sudden change was like parkour.It seemed that it was going to be the biggest war to occur in Flyve City as the two most powerful gangs all came to fight.“Dead Soul vs. Blood Trouble” was about to be included in the future history textbooks.Dakota pulled Olivia to hide behind a rectangular that was pushed down to serve as a barricade instead of a furniture to hold food. She would take a peek and shoot the enemies that she could see, while the blonde would use whatever object she finds near her to hit whoever tries to get close to them. They were being great teammates. It was no wonder they became partners in crime.“Fuck you,” the blonde hissed as she hit the man’s head with a silver pot as hard as she could which caused him to fall unconscious.Olivia was panting from the exertion as she stared at the man lying on the floor in his unconscious state. A body was s

Just when the blonde thought that she was already completely falling into the void, the light came reaching out to grab her hand. Everything that happened all at once in one night was doing more to her than devastation that it was like each of them were throwing attacks on her until she ended up on the edge of a cliff—until she lost her balance and started to fall down to the never-ending hole with no one to catch her.Until she came to catch her.Olivia felt more than a hundred times better as she let herself totally fall into the taller woman’s embrace, wishing that the latter would just hold her and never let her go forever until she becomes okay again.The green-haired woman did not speak as she just hugged her tightly and gave her gentle pats on her back, letting the blonde cry as much as she wanted to. There was nothing that the gang boss could do but to just be there for her—because that was what Olivia only needed at that moment. Someone to hold her and make her realize that t
Favorite Crime 58: Living Nightmare
It all started on their sophomore year in high school. Theodore and his possessiveness of Olivia.They were already teenagers which meant that they were hitting puberty. The moment when hormones are developing to a new stage.“Give me your number.”Classes had just ended and they were all leaving school when a man with a man in junior year stopped the blonde from leaving. A smirk painted on his face as he shoved his smartphone toward the girl who absolutely no interest in the guy that was standing arrogantly in front of her.“Bold of you to assume I’d give you my number,” Olivia scoffed. She was about to walk past him when he moved to stop her again, making her roll her eyes. “I said, no.”“Oh? You’re being disrespectful to your senior.” He gasped, acting shocked at her response. “Girls like you need to be taught a lesson.”“What if I teach you a lesson?” Olivia threw a glare at him. She had to look up a bit because of their height difference.“In a kinky way?” His smirk grew wider as
Favorite Crime 57: Masks
A week passed by quickly since that day.Even though Dakota had always been softhearted to Olivia to the point that she could overlook every mistake she does, it was a first for the gang boss to stop being clingy for a while after a conflict.Dakota was speechless and shocked after finding out about how Olivia had to do things that she did not want to do for the sake of protecting her and their two friends. Dakota knew that Olivia was a changed person, but never did she imagine the blonde to be selfless for a decade just for her.The possibility of the two of them being in more danger by being together again made the gang boss suddenly snap back to reality. They were not the main characters in a love story with a happy ending, that was the fact. Dakota loved Olivia, but she was just realizing that it was wrong even though the thought of that hurt her a lot.The gang boss drove the blonde near the café that was near the hospital after finishing their lunch which happened quickly unlike

Everything that happened seemed to be fast. It felt like the first day that the blonde started to date Theodore was yesterday. It felt like the day that Theodore first confessed his feelings for her was just two days ago. It felt like she was just suddenly brought to the future in a split second with how everything had not been done processing yet.The blonde stared at the orange soda in the glass that she was holding as she swirled it around, watching the bubbles produce because of the release of carbon dioxide from the soft drink. She was told to watch TV to kill time though she did not even bother turning it on. Her head was currently full that she could not bear to let more things enter her brain from the television which contained plenty of things.“Hey, are you okay?” Olivia looked up and saw the green-haired woman with a curious and concerned look on her face as she sat down next to her while placing their food on the table in front of them.“Yeah, I’m fine,” the blonde replied
Favorite Crime 55: Unexpected Surprise
There were plenty of eyes around especially as it was daytime and the place was literally close to the hospital. Because of that, it really had become more difficult to meet up even though they wanted to.But it was not like that would stop them.The blonde walked in the café with a blank face. She had a natural posture and a calm expression on her face as she went to order a cup of cappuccino at the counter. It was currently work hours so there were not much people in the café except for people who were either having their break time from work or were just jobless.Olivia gave the barista a brief smile as she thanked him for her coffee before walking to a vacant table that was on the corner of the room, far from the entrance. She took out her phone and sipped on her coffee as soon as she sat down.“Do you even ever get a drink other than cappuccino?” On the opposite side of the room was a green-haired woman in a black leather jacket seated at a table while facing her laptop with a cu

The blonde was in deep concentration, processing the documents that started to stack because of her absence for a week. She realized how taking leaves at work were not always fun because the happiness would only stay for a specific duration, and she would later be in hell that’s hotter than before once she goes back to work.Olivia did not even notice someone entering her office because of how busy she was with her eyes glue on the computer screen, switching from the device and to the documents that were on her desk. She nearly jumped from her seat in surprise when the person knocked on her desk, making her finally look up and acknowledge the person’s presence.“Oh, Theo,” Olivia uttered as she leaned back to her seat and took her cup of coffee to take a sip on it. It was a good thing that the latter came by to her office because that would mean that she had to stop working for a while, which means that that would be her only break. “What’s up?”“Why didn’t you tell me that you had a

What was more romantic than a dinner reservation in a fast-food restaurant with a neat table that was fixed with a candle and folded napkins? Homemade dinner that would be cooked together.The rest of the night together was supposed to be romantic with the two women cooking their dinner together at the gang boss’s home.But it was not as romantic as expected.“Am I supposed to cut them like this?” asked the blonde after struggling to have her third cut on a single piece of potato.“What does it look—oh god.” The green-haired woman pursed her lips in as she gently pushed the latter aside and took the knife from her. “You’re even holding it wrong.”“Oh! I was?” She could not believe that Olivia was genuinely shocked at her statement.“Yeah. It’s basic knowledge that knives are held by the handle and not the blade,” Dakota spoke with a smile on her face to not make things serious. “It’s okay. I’ll handle it here. Just go wash the lettuce.”“Roger.” Olivia then went to the sink to finish
