    Answer

    It Ends With Us is a book I read recently. It's by the author Colleen Hoare. It's mainly a story about two teenagers, Atlas and Lily, and how they just handle their life going through high school, adolescence, and just domestic violence at home. Both of them come from very, very different families. However, they have one common determining factor between them, which is domestic violence. The abuse that they've seen their moms go through is just insane, and they connect through that on a different level. They're actually in the same high school, but they never speak to each other until Atlas actually crashes into an empty house next to Lily's villa. When Atlas is homeless and he doesn't have anywhere to go, he just comes and breaks into the house next to Lily's, and Lily helps him with all the daily necessities like clothes and food, medicines and stuff. Furthermore, their friendship blossoms into love, but it doesn't really fructify as Atlas has to leave. This book really gave me a lot of knowledge about domestic abuse and how to deal with it.

She is tall, dusky, beautiful. She has dimples. She is amazing. She looks like goddess. He wears all her stuff like saree. He even tried a saree and sherwani and something like that. And it really, really feels awkward like it's not that good on him but he needs to try everything as a hero. As a hero in Bollywood, he needs to try every single style. So he will try everything differently. Sometimes it's very nice, it's vibrant. Even he chose colors like vibrant, vibrant red, blue, yellow, which colors are vibrant and it shows that he is into bright colors.

She wears traditional clothing and moreover she follows the current trend in the field of fashion and she is having a lot of knowledge about the clothing. Moreover, her dressing sense is very accurate but sometimes she makes us confused that is it a trend or not. So sometimes she wears very praising clothing and everybody praises her.

    A person who wears unusual clothes would be definitely my younger brother Alba, he is my real brother and I am suggesting his name because most of the people have informed me about his clothes and the people used to say from where does your younger brother buy clothes, his clothes are unusual and cannot be found in this locality area, the clothes are beyond our imagination because the trousers he wears are really wired and showing off and really it's a mode of attraction towards the people. Nevertheless, the clothes are costly but also while seeing his clothes we cannot sense a person with his good choice, whereas other people compare his clothes with aliens. Though I am his brother, I have informed him many times that change your outfit, change your outfit styles, but he never listens to me and thus wearing the same clothes has become apparent to him.

    So the person I'm going to talk about is a friend of mine whose name is Akash and I know him from my college where we used to study engineering together. So I consider his the type of clothing that he wears is he has no contrast in his clothing. He wears the same colors like black shirt, he pairs the black shirt with a black pant and black shoes. If you give him an option he'll also wear a black hat and a black backpack on it so I always thought that this choice of his clothing and accessorizing was always a bit funny because you never saw any contours or any incontinency in his clothing so you always wondered how does he wear this comfortably and how does he provide.
