THE SILENT SYMPHONY

In a world that only hears shouts, his silence is a weapon. Orphaned and mute, Mateo Álvarez communicates through the beautiful game. After a tragic accident steals his voice, it grants him something else: an extraordinary ability to see the flow of play before it happens, a gift he calls The System. On the pitch, he is a prodigy, a conductor of silent symphonies, reading the game with a genius that leaves scouts and legends in awe. His talent earns him a destiny at FC Barcelona’s famed La Masia academy. Under the wing of mentors like Pep Guardiola and Lionel Messi, Mateo flourishes, his dream of one day representing Spain on the world stage feeling closer than ever. He becomes their golden boy, a symbol of pure footballing intellect, and the heart of a new generation. But when the club’s soul is traded for corporate interests, Mateo’s greatest strength is recast as a liability. To the new board, a star who cannot speak is a star who cannot sell. Betrayed by the institution he called home, the boy who dreamed in goals is cast out at sixteen, his future shattered. Now, Mateo must journey beyond the only home he’s ever known. Armed only with his preternatural gift and a resilience forged in silence, he must find a new team willing to listen not to his voice, but to his vision. His quest is no longer just for club glory, but to prove a devastating truth to those who discarded him: that the most powerful language in football isn’t spoken at all. The Silent Symphony is an unforgettable underdog story about the corruption of dreams, the beauty of resilience, and the unspoken bonds that define us. It's a journey across the fierce landscapes of European football to reclaim a stolen destiny, one perfect pass at a time. **** DISCLAIMER: The contents of 'THE SILENT SYMPHONY' is entirely a work of fiction.

What am I in this life? My mind has been going round and round for as long as I can remember, I've been happy in many moments, I've been sad in many moments, I've lived a normal life, I want to think so, I'm happy with everything I've lived for, I'm content, I didn't ask for anything more than to always have what I had, so why are they taking it all away from me?

Tethered To Silence

Raven Foster has learned that silence is survival. At home, it keeps the peace. At college, it keeps her invisible. Bruises are hidden beneath long sleeves, apologies come easily, and obedience has become second nature. Raven has spent her life being everything others need her to be—daughter, caretaker, emotional crutch—while quietly disappearing in the process. Her closest friendship is built on obligation rather than choice. Sophie is admired, confident, and always praised for her loyalty to Raven. But behind closed doors, that loyalty tightens into control, and kindness becomes something Raven must earn. The dynamic is familiar. Comfortable. Dangerous. College is supposed to be a fresh start, yet Raven finds herself tethered to the same patterns—until small fractures begin to form. A roommate who notices too much. A chance collaboration with Aiden, someone who doesn’t demand explanations or gratitude, only honesty. And moments that force Raven to confront a truth she has spent years avoiding: silence has protected her, but it has also kept her trapped. As family secrets surface and old accusations resurface with brutal force, Raven is pushed to the edge of everything she has learned to endure. Loyalty is tested. Trust becomes risky. And speaking—really speaking—threatens to cost her the last scraps of belonging she has left. Tethered to Silence is a dark, emotionally grounded novel about coercive relationships, misplaced loyalty, and the slow, uneven process of reclaiming agency. It explores what happens when survival stops being enough—and the quietest voice finally decides to choose itself.
