Pages: Finished
Before I continue, I would just like to say that Love, Sophia was a story written online. Either way, I feel that the story was amazing! I got hooked and I was able to finish it in 2 days. Throughout the story, we follow a girl names Sophia. She has moved in with her stepfather in Virginia. At her new school, she had no trouble fitting in. However, she noticed one kid that was singled out. He had been labeled as the school freak and is getting bullied quite severely. His name was Matt. Throughout the story, she tries, continually, befriending Matt but is always shot down and pushed away. We continually see Sophia writing in her journal but we really see no significance. After finally being accepted by Matt she feels a connection between them. One day, Matt disappears in towards the end of the school day. She eventually find him in the back of the school getting beat by a group of guys that run away. Matt ends up going into a coma for a month and during the period, Sophia goes through a really hard time and continues to write in her journal.
When Matt finally wakes up, Matt also starts feeling a connection between him and Sophia. After some time, Something happens to Matt with his Mom and his Dad who is quite dangerous. In the middle of the nightSophia goes to help him and she finds him in a state of distress and we find out his mother is missing and his father took her. After calming him down they finally reveal how the feel about each other and after finding Matts mother, she stays the night to make sure nothing happens. After going home, her stepfather says that she can no longer have any contact with Matt because she left with permission. After a month, Matt feels hurt and is angered and in pain. After confronting Sophia and not letting her explain her self, she snaps. She flees town and left a not explaining everything to Matt. However, no one knows where she might've gone. When Matt looks through her journal, he sees a lot of short but sweet entries about him from before they were friends, during the Coma and before she left. Although we don't know where she went, he realizes how much she care and loved him. The story ends there and
Like I said in the beginning, Love, Sophia was AMAZING! Although it was written by some random person, they were able to grasp my attention. One thing i especially loved about this story is how the author was able to incorporate the journal as something so small in the beginning but such a huge part with the name of the story and with helping Matt understanding everything. I also loved how she had Sophia push and push to befriend Matt. I think the story overall was also a good way to see how fast things can leave. And how some people can be pushed so far. Overall, an amazing piece.
