5. Blinded by First Love

All characters, settings, and cultural nuances in this story are inspired by Indonesian youth and contemporary Indonesian society. While the narrative is written in English for broader accessibility, the emotions, behaviors, school life, and social dynamics portrayed throughout are deeply rooted in Indonesian culture—particularly the experiences of teenagers navigating friendship, love, and social expectations in urban Indonesian settings. From the way characters speak (with touches of local slang) to their concerns about peer judgment, family expectations, and social appearances, every detail is shaped by the context of growing up in Indonesia. This is not a Western coming-of-age story. This is an Indonesian one—with all its beauty, heartbreak, complexity, and contradictions. ------ Your support means so much to me.
