    17-year-old Kagetsu Luna moves through life like she's trying to catch every spark before it fades. With Sakuragi Kaito by her side, she makes every second glitter-stealing his fries, drawing silly faces on his hand, and grinning as she teases, "Will you still love me if I disappear?" He laughs it off, never seeing the way her eyes soften when she thinks he's not looking-like she's memorizing him for later. Instead of just letters, she fills a worn box with pieces of their life, still breathing: neon sticky notes with inside jokes ("You owe me 37 milk teas-don't even try to run"), a vintage cassette tape labeled "Our Rain Dance Song" (the cheesy 2000s pop hit they spun to in a downpour), a pressed cherry blossom from their first date with its pink hue still faint, and letters in every mood-giddy scribbles, quiet whispers, jokes that make Kaito snort-laugh even when something in his chest tightens.

Aarya, quiet but unwavering, still holds onto a love that never left her heart. Ruhan, now cold & closed-off, buries the past behind a wall of resentment. When their families - oblivious to the storm that once brewed between them - arrange their marriage, both are pushed into a sacred bond they never expected to share again. One sees it as punishment. The other, perhaps, a second chance. But what happens when buried emotions resurface? Will this forced union be the final crack in their already broken hearts? Or...... could it become the beginning of something deeper - or something healing, something eternal?

But love isn't always loud; sometimes, it settles in silent sacrifices, in unspoken glances, in quiet prayers whispered at night. She was his home in chaos, his solace in the noise - and he? He was the storm she called her destiny. This isn't a love story. It's the story of the girl who loved too deeply, too quietly... and still chose to stay.

    When Lee Sangwon's world shatters under a rain-soaked confession - "I'm tired of trying" - he's left alone in the park where his love story ends. But not completely alone. Hidden beneath the same tree, Zhou Anxin watches the man he loves cry for someone else. Weeks later, when Sangwon learns that Leo - the ex who broke him - has found someone new, his grief turns to something darker. He turns to Anxin with a plan that will change all three of their lives: "Fake date me. Make him jealous." Anxin agrees, because he's loved Sangwon for years in silence. Because even if it means breaking his own heart, at least he'll get to stand beside him - if only for a little while. As the lie deepens, old flames reignite, hearts collide, and the truth begins to drown under the weight of what's unsaid. Because the cruelest part of love isn't losing someone. It's realizing they were never yours to begin with. Disclaimer! Remember that the people mentioned in this story are real-life individuals with their own lives. They are not related to or even close to the characters and feelings in my story. It's all fake; it's just a story! Started: 10.20.2025 Ended: 11.8.2025 - Number #1 in tragic romance

    Carter St. John, a sixteen-year-old high school student, lies broken on the pavement, left to die after a hit-and-run. As his body gives out, his mind refuses to surrender - clinging to memories, to dreams, to everything he still hoped to become. He rages against the dying of the light, realizing, with aching clarity, that this might be the end. He starts accepting his fate and is ready to let it all go. "No one is coming to save you. You cling to everything and everyone around you, and yet... here you are... alone. As sadness, self-reflection, and the thought of leaving everything behind threaten to consume him, Carter is saved by his rage, which manifests as a hallucination: a spectral, warped version of his own fury given physical form. Standing above his own broken body, he says: "Someone is waiting for you-to see that you have a home to come to. A home you must fight for. A home worth building. Carter, you must fight; she would not forgive you." Then, the past unravels in vivid fragments as the sirens and flashing lights draw near. His mind leaks into the past, the laughter of friendships, the rush of first love, the sting of betrayal. Memories flood him, raw and relentless, pulling him back through the wild, beautiful chaos of coming of age.

    They were only twelve when their eyes met for the first time. No words. No promises. Just a look - and something deep inside them shifted. From silent glances across classrooms to fleeting moments in crowded hallways, their love bloomed in secret. No confessions, no declarations - only the ache of wanting, the joy of presence, and the heartbreak of missed chances. He watched her with eyes full of things he never said. She smiled at him like her heart knew before her mind did. And year after year, they kept orbiting each other like stars that couldn't align - too scared to lose what little they had, too young to name what they felt. Now, more than a decade later, they live miles apart. Strangers to the world - but never to each other. A blocked number never deleted. A profile picture never missed. A quiet message after eight years... just to say thank you. They were never officially anything. But their hearts knew better. Resonance of Your Memory is a soul-stirring story of quiet love that never faded, hearts that never stopped searching, and the kind of connection that time, silence, and distance could never truly erase. Because some people... we don't stop loving. We just love them in silence - Always.

    Azriel Rakha Wiradikara arrives in Europe chasing a dream-and running from everything else. A charming young man with a turbulent past, he finds himself entangled in a world far more dangerous than he imagined: the glittering, seductive, and soul-stripping world of high fashion. He shares an apartment with Luna Cressini, a fiery aristocrat who abandoned her privileged life for him. Their bond is messy, passionate, and complicated. Then comes Giulia Santorelli, the daughter of a devout family and the embodiment of innocence. She's everything Luna isn't-and everything Azriel never knew he needed. When a third woman enters the picture-Sienna Valentina Moretti, a world-renowned supermodel with a fractured soul-Azriel's life takes a turn he never saw coming. Sienna is beauty perfected, but behind the glamour lies a silence that speaks louder than words. As the lines between desire, loyalty, and guilt begin to blur, Azriel is forced to confront not just the women he loves-but the man he truly is. Three women. One man. A love story that begins as a triangle and slowly transforms into something far more profound. Not every love is meant to be fair. But every love leaves a mark.
