The Things We Never Said
Larisa had always been easy to love.
She was loud, expressive, and full of life in a way that made people gravitate toward her without thinking. She laughed with her whole heart, spoke without filters, and never believed in holding back.
She felt everything.
And she showed it.
Zayan didn't.
He was quiet in a way that wasn't peaceful. He kept to himself, spoke only when necessary, and carried a distance no one could cross no matter how hard they tried.
He wasn't warm.
He wasn't cruel.
He was simply... closed.
And he never understood her.
From the beginning, they stood on opposite sides-challenging each other, provoking each other, refusing to give in.
Rivals.
That's all they were supposed to be.
But life has a way of changing things quietly.
Feelings slip in unnoticed.
Silences start to mean more than words.
And suddenly, there's too much to say-
and no way to say it.
Because not every story is about heartbreak.
Some are about hesitation.
Some are about timing.
And some-
are about the things we never said.
