Unrequitedlove Stories

I heard his laugh before I saw her, and I already knew - that loose, unguarded version of it, the one I'd never once heard him aim at me. I found him with my eyes and there he was, all six feet six of him tilted toward Cathie like she was the only thing in the room worth standing near, his sharp eyes tracking her face with an attention I had spent three years quietly starving for. Something in my chest didn't break. It just went still. I set his coffee down on the bench - oat milk, no sugar, memorized without him ever asking - and walked away.

She liked him. Quietly....deeply...in the kind of way that never asked to be seen. But he never saw her. Not as a crush. Not as a friend. Not even as someone worth understanding. He wasn't cruel. He wasn't confused. He just... never chose her. And still, she stayed. At first, it was small-just a fleeting feeling. But with time, it grew into something consuming... something that lived in every glance she stole, every message she waited for, every silence he left behind. She fell first. And then she fell harder. Until loving him became a habit she didn't know how to stop. Until one day- she did. Not all at once. Not in a dramatic goodbye. But slowly... piece by piece... she took her heart back. Or at least, that's what it looked like. Because now- she doesn't react. She doesn't wait. She doesn't care. Or maybe... she just pretends she doesn't. To him, she was just someone annoying. Someone easy to ignore. Someone who never mattered. But fate has a way of returning what was once overlooked. Because when they meet again- when her eyes no longer search for him- He notices. He pauses. He wonders. He feels. And this time... he falls. Harder than she ever did. Not slowly. Not carefully. But in the kind of way that ruins sleep and steals breath. While she- just watches, as if she feels nothing at all. 🏆 Ranked #1 in Crush 🏆 Ranked #1 in OneSidedLove 🏆 Ranked #1 in Reunion ~ a story that started with silence... and stayed. ❤️

Kiara Mehta was in love. Unfortunately, it was with her best friend. He was the boy she studied with before exams. The one who got into trouble. The one who dragged her onto rooftops at midnight to watch the city lights. The one who knew every version of her before the world did. While Kiara quietly loved him, he was busy falling for everyone else, chasing bigger dreams, and living a life that never had space for her. So she did what any self-respecting girl would do. She buried the truth. She moved on, and she was better for it. Ten years later, fate decides to play a cruel game. She runs into the one man she spent a decade trying to forget. The same devastating smile... and the same ability to turn her world upside down in seconds. But something has changed. But the problem with fate? It has a habit of bringing the right people together at exactly the wrong time. And sometimes the person you tried the hardest to let go of...is the one your heart never stopped choosing.

May mga kwentong hindi nakatakdang tapusin, kundi paulit-ulit na binabalikan. Sa bawat patak ng itim sa puting papel, may mga lihim na pilit ibinabaon pero pilit ding umaahon. Sinasabi nilang ang pluma ang pinakamatinding sandata, pero paano kung ito rin ang mitsa ng sarili mong pagkapagod? Paano kung bawat salitang pinakawalan ay isip na dahan-dahang humahati sa nakaraan at sa ngayon? Huwag mong hawakan ang pahina kung hindi mo kayang panindigan ang mantsa. Dahil sa mundong ito, ang pinakamasakit na katotohanan ay hindi ang tuldok sa dulo... kundi ang luhang pumatak at nag-iwan ng bakas, habang basa pa ang tinta. Ito ang kwento ng mga pusong sumugal sa gitna ng unang sulat, naghanap ng kahulugan sa bawat bura, at nalunod sa sarili nilang mga salita. Dahil bago pa man matuyo ang kwento, matagal nang tapos ang lahat.

Isang kwento tungkol sa first love, heartbreak, friendship, at pagpili sa sarili. #Romance #TeenFiction #Heartbreak #IWasYourAlmost

Born to Be Loved is a chapbook of poems that moves through the quiet violence of longing, the confusion of becoming, and the fragile hope of learning what love actually asks of us. Across these pages, love appears in many forms: devotional, distorted, imagined, withheld, and redefined. It becomes a star seen from too far away, a mirror that refuses certainty, a language spoken between ache and attachment. These poems trace what it means to grow up inside emotional intensity-where identity is shaped by who we love, who we lose, and who we try to become in return. At its core, this collection is not only about being loved, but about questioning what it means to deserve love, to mistake it, to resist it, and to finally imagine it without harm or illusion. Born to Be Loved is for anyone who has ever tried to earn tenderness, rebuild themselves from longing, or find clarity in the space between devotion and self-discovery.

A story about first love, heartbreak, and the courage to choose yourself. ⚠️ This is a work of fiction.

They say grief changes people. Maybe that's why Maddy Perez barely recognizes herself anymore. A year after losing the person she loved most, Maddy moves through Miami like a ghost. The city is still beautiful. The nights are still loud. The ocean still crashes against the shore like nothing happened. But everything feels different. Especially when Bishop starts showing up. He's always there. At family cookouts. Late-night drives. Random moments she doesn't realize she'll remember forever. Bishop was never supposed to become important. He was supposed to be familiar. Safe. Temporary. Instead, he becomes the one person who notices when she's pretending to be okay. The one person who waits. The one person who stays. As friendship slowly turns into something neither of them expected, Maddy finds herself caught between who she used to be and who she's becoming. Between the pain she's holding onto and the future trying to find her. But healing isn't linear. And love doesn't always arrive like a lightning strike. Sometimes it grows quietly. Like flowers pushing through concrete. Like a shadow following you home. Like nightshade. A slow-burn romance about grief, healing, second chances, and discovering that the person meant for you might have been beside you all along.
