Almostus Stories

They met like it meant nothing. Just a coincidence... a passing moment. But some coincidences don't stay small. A glance turned into something more. A moment turned into a memory. And before they even realized- they were already too close to walk away. But not every connection is meant to last. Some are meant to stay unfinished. Some are meant to hurt. And some... are never meant to be "us."

Sometimes, the people who are meant to touch your life the most do so in the quietest, most unexpected ways. She doesn't notice him. He doesn't reveal himself. Yet fate-or something deeper-keeps intertwining their paths. Cafés, streets, parks, rainy afternoons-they meet in moments that feel familiar, almost like déjà vu, but she doesn't realize it's him orchestrating these encounters all along. Years of near-misses, silent protection, and unspoken feelings build a story neither of them can fully understand... until the day the truth is revealed in a heartbeat that changes everything. Almost Us is a story about love that quietly chooses, sacrifices, and endures. About almosts that stretch across time and life, and the invisible threads that connect two souls destined to find each other-again and again, across lifetimes, across worlds, across everything.

When eighteen-year-old Mila Torres moves to the small town of Silvergrove, she swears love isn't in her plans. Not after her parents' divorce, not after her best friend ghosted her, and definitely not after the heartbreak that still follows her like a song she can't skip. But then there's Eli, the sarcastic artist with messy curls and eyes that see right through her walls. And Grayson, the golden boy with a past he hides behind smiles and perfectly timed jokes. Two boys. One town. And a story that starts with an almost. As Mila navigates friendship, loss, and the kind of love that rewrites your definition of "forever," she learns that the people who change you the most aren't always the ones you end up with - they're the ones who teach you how to love at all. A story about almosts, firsts, growing up, and learning to let go.

In the heart of Basel, Switzerland, a girl struggles with expectations, a boy finds solace in numbers, and a fleeting bus ride changes everything. Two worlds collide, secrets unfold, and sometimes, love is found in the most unexpected places.

They didn't break because they stopped loving each other. They broke because they loved each other at different stages of growth. Almost Us is a story about timing, immaturity, responsibility, and the quiet cost of learning too late. It follows two people who cared deeply-but not equally ready. One learned to see the world clearly. The other learned to stay inside it with discipline. Somewhere between effort and imbalance, love became something heavier than it was meant to be. This is not a story about betrayal. It is about understanding when staying begins to limit someone you care about. And choosing to let go-not because the love faded, but because it finally matured.

From our Memories to creating my own memories

My name is kyle loraine De Vera, and I am eighteen years old. This story is about my first love-the kind of love that arrives quietly, stays deeply, and leaves marks you carry long after it's gone. It's about growing up, holding on, and learning what it means to love someone more than you love yourself. This is not a perfect love story, and I am not writing it to be one. I am writing it because some stories deserve to be told, even if they end in silence. This story holds memories of laughter, quiet moments, small sacrifices, and emotions I didn't know how to name back then. It is about the girl I was when I loved for the first time, and the person I became after learning how to live with the absence of that love. Some parts may hurt, some parts may feel warm, but all of it is real. This is my story. This is our story.

Almost Us is for anyone who loved someone they were never allowed to choose.
