Workplace Stories

Every woman probably experiences such a time: ordinary, obedient, well-behaved, someone without a name in the eyes of passersby, a dim star that may or may not be by his side. But it's just a phase, after which she shines like the sun-scorching, bright, but she doesn't love you anymore. Luan Nian stands in the icy snow of the northern country, the cold frosting his hair and eyebrows, his breath forming clouds: "Shang Zhitao, let's get to know each other again? Starting from our first meeting."

Thank you for checking this story out, and I know it has been a while since she has graduated but I finally have the courage to release a fanfiction containing her. I have been a fan of her for a while now so unlike my other works this won't be a one shot. I plan to write more chapters for this but it will be slow because I want to write other stories as well. Hopefully you enjoy this fanfiction as well as I did writing it. The cover I used does not belong to me, I do not claim it as mine. Ceres Fauna is her own person and I did not make her. All rights for the cover and the character of Ceres Fauna goes to their original artist.

Not everyone who enters your life becomes your ex or your next. Sometimes, they become something you never had a name for. Fara had spent years believing that love was something she was better off without. After her first heartbreak, she built walls around herself and promised she would never trust someone enough to be hurt like that again. Then came Ayan. Patient. Persistent. Gentle. He didn't rush her. He didn't ask her to forget her past. He simply stayed long enough for her to believe that maybe love could be different this time. Ayan was never supposed to be temporary. He was supposed to be the hero of her story. But stories don't always follow the plans we make for them. Then Mihir entered her life. He wasn't supposed to be her next. They weren't even supposed to have a future. They came from different worlds, carried circumstances that made their relationship impossible to define, and yet somehow, feelings found their way into places they were never invited. And before Fara could understand what was happening, everything had changed. The boy who was never supposed to become her ex became one. The boy who was never supposed to become her next somehow became one. And Fara was left standing between two stories that were never meant to exist the way they did. Maybe that's the cruelest thing about love. You can spend years trying to decide who will be your ex and who will be your next, only to realize that neither word was ever enough to describe what they meant to you. This is a story about first love, unexpected feelings, friendship, betrayal, faith, fear, heartbreak, and the people who change us even when they don't stay. Because sometimes the person you thought would be your forever becomes a memory. Sometimes the person who was never meant to be your future becomes your almost. And sometimes, the real ending isn't about choosing between an ex or a next at all.

Starting date: 5.09.2026 Every MONDAY. 8:00 PM. She had already known love. She had known what it meant to build a home with someone, to become a wife, a mother, and a family. Then, at twenty-nine, **Iraanvi Deshmukh lost her husband.** A year later, she has returned to work with a one-year-old son, a quiet determination to rebuild her life, and a family she never expected to keep after losing her own. She isn't looking for another love. She isn't waiting for someone to save her. And she certainly isn't looking for the twenty-seven-year-old man who becomes her boss. **Advay Mehra** built his life from nothing. An orphan. A self-made businessman. A CEO who learned early that depending on people was a luxury he couldn't afford. At twenty-seven, he has everything he once thought he needed. Until his new executive assistant walks into his office. She's four years older. She's a widow. She's a mother. She's completely uninterested in impressing him. And somehow, that makes him notice her. But whatever exists between them remains where it began- behind a desk, between meetings, inside conversations that last a little longer than necessary. They don't fall in love at first sight. They don't rush toward it. They don't even admit that something is changing. Because Iraanvi has a life she has carefully rebuilt. And Advay refuses to become another person who asks her to rearrange it for him. So they take their time. They learn each other through ordinary days. Through silences that become comfortable. Through trust that arrives before attraction. Through a child who slowly becomes familiar with the man his mother works for. Through two people who never intended to need anyone- until, somewhere between yesterday and tomorrow, they begin to matter to each other. Some love stories begin with a spark. **Theirs begins with patience.** And perhaps the deepest kind of love isn't the one that arrives like a storm. Perhaps it's the one that comes quietly...and waits

As one of Accra's most respected communications strategists, she knows how to control a narrative, manage a crisis, and keep people exactly where she wants them-outside her walls. Then she meets Kojo Asante. Wealthy, influential, dangerously perceptive, and carrying secrets of his own, Kojo sees through the polished woman everyone else admires. Their attraction is immediate, inconvenient, and impossible to ignore-especially when a high-stakes business project forces them to work together. Akosua knows better than to trust a man who can read her so easily. But Kojo isn't asking her to trust him. He's asking her to stop running. As buried secrets surface and old wounds begin to reopen, Akosua must choose between the safety of the life she built and the terrifying possibility of letting someone love the woman behind the armor. Because sometimes love doesn't wait for morning. Sometimes it finds you in the dark, and asks you to stay until dawn.

People change. Not all at once, and rarely when they intend to. Sometimes it happens quietly between two conversations, somewhere between staying and leaving, somewhere between the person you were and the person you are becoming. A friendship becomes something more. A home becomes a memory. A wound becomes a scar. And one day, you look around and realize that everything feels different. Not because the world changed. Because you did. Before The Season Changes is a story about the seasons we carry within us, the ones that arrive, linger, and eventually have to leave.
