-   la douleur exquise;

(n.) the heart-wrenching pain of wanting the attention of someone unattainable. 


_

This is a poetry sort of book, I guess you could say. Each part in this book, has words that come from someone, whose heart has been through what it's like to desperately need someone, but have to painfully never be able to have them, to love them, to give their hearts to them, like their souls are calling out to do. Unrequited love is one of the worst out of them all.

A Tea, Love, and a Splash of Trouble by ravalishani
51 parts Complete
Mia flopped dramatically onto the couch, her face etched with teenage frustration. "Love is impossible now! It's not like in your time, Mom-when childhood friends just magically turned into soulmates. 'The one and only' is a myth now!" she declared. Aanya, sipping her tea, tried to suppress a laugh. "Oh, sweetie," she said with a knowing smirk, "who told you love was simple back then? If anything, it was even messier. Let me tell you, love comes with drama, tears, shouting, and sometimes even restraining orders-uh, ignore that last part." Mia's eyes narrowed. "You? Drama? Please, you're perfect. You always say and do the right thing! I bet your love life was, like, a Bollywood movie where everything ends in a song and dance." Aanya nearly choked on her tea, shaking her head. "Bollywood movie? Honey, my college life was more like a comedy show where everyone was running in circles. If you think I always had it together, oh boy, do I have stories for you." Mia perked up, arms crossed, her eyebrow raised in intrigue. "Oh, this I have to hear. I bet it's nowhere near as complicated as today's love lives." Aanya smirked and leaned back, ready to deliver the bombshell of nostalgia. "Complicated? Mia, back in my day, we didn't have dating apps to swipe left on creepy guys. We had to deal with them in person. And trust me, running into your crush while wearing yesterday's pajama pants because your laundry plan failed? That's a level of humiliation you'll never know." Mia's curiosity grew. "But you're always so calm and cool! You mean to tell me you weren't the picture of perfection This is gold. Tell me everything!" Aanya leaned forward with a conspiratorial grin. "Alright, but let me warn you-it involves your aunts, your uncle, some very questionable fashion choices, and more plot twists than a soap opera." As Mia settled in, Aanya began, knowing she had just set the stage for a wildly entertaining walk down memory lane.
