"Emptiness is a home with no bed,
A body with no head,
Mechanical pencil, no lead. 

Emptiness is a heart, broken. 
Words chose to be unspoken,
The sibling treated un-kin. 

But your emptiness is freedom,
Your imagination's own kingdom,
No heartache, no feelings."

Charlie Kingsley has had bad experiences with love since she was a young child, which is exactly why she chose to save children from unhappy homes. With only what's left of her grandfather's memory to make up for her lost childhood and several sessions at a therapist, Charlie feels as though change is looking up. 

Full pockets don't compete with an empty heart and Apollo can vouch for that. Losing a child in the past has only hardened his heart in the present and could possibly ruin his future. 

Through secrets, lies, and the blurred lines between, love and the emptiness is brings is pushed to its limits and question lingers: "What is the bliss of solitude?"

My Ex - Crush by thefadedwhite
95 parts Ongoing
"I wish I had never met you!" Deepika's voice echoed across the classroom, each word a dagger to my heart. "Excellent! At least we finally agree on something!" I fired back, even as a tear betrayed the storm of emotions within me. With those final, stinging words, Deepika stormed out, leaving a heavy silence in her wake. The classroom felt like a graveyard, and I stood there, rooted to the spot, desperately wishing I could chase after her and demand the truth. Maybe letting her go was the right choice. Perhaps this is meant to be my unfinished love story, a tale of what-ifs and almosts... ✨ No Deepika. This can't be his bike. Not Arjun's. But I couldn't deny what I saw-the familiar brown Royal Enfield, now twisted and crushed. My heart hammered as I circled around, hoping, praying it wasn't true, until my gaze landed on the number plate: TN56 0809. Arjun's bike. Deepika! Stop imagining things! Arjun would be fine! I felt the world shift, the noise around me blurring into a single, deafening hum. Ambulance and police sirens echoed, and a stranger's voice broke through: "Two boys. Spot dead. College students." I clutched my chest, gasping for air as reality slammed into me. "Arjun..." I whispered, barely holding myself together. Tears stung my face as I sank beside the wreck. "No, Please, No!" My voice cracked as the weight of regret settled in, suffocating me. ✨ Ex-Crush: More than just a crush, but a little less than love. ✨ Arjun and Deepika were hopelessly in love-only they never realized it. Will they find their way to each other, or will their love story remain forever unfinished? ✨ Join Arjun and Deepika on a journey back to those dreamy college days-days where every moment felt eternal, love was unspoken yet ever present, where friendship bloomed like wildflowers, offering a sanctuary from the harsh winds of reality. Come, wander with them through the corridors of college days, where the echoes of laughter still linger.
