. . .
Sometimes, fate doesn't let two souls make a love story.
. . .
Whether he had been ready to let her go or not didn't matter in the slightest when she left. In the months after, refusing to mope around, he set out to find someone that he believed was genuine enough to mend his broken heart, unfortunately, to no avail.
But he saw her again and it wasn't a question of if she would be able to put him back together, but rather a question of whether or not he was willing to fight for someone who looked all too happy in a world without him.
. . .
❝The saddest word
in the whole wide world
is the word almost. ❞

Destiny's Second Chance
Ritika Das, a vibrant and artistic young girl, navigates her teenage years filled with friendships, insecurities, and a silent, unspoken crush on Himanshu Datta, a calm and intelligent boy from her school bus. Their bond grows through fleeting interactions, shared glances, and unspoken words, but insecurities and life's circumstances pull them apart. On their farewell day, an intense moment of mutual longing is left unresolved as they part ways without a goodbye, never expecting to cross paths again. Years later, destiny intervenes-Himanshu has become an influential doctor, treating his patients with kindness and compassion, while Ritika flourishes as a multi-talented entrepreneur and artist. As their paths reconnect, will they finally confess their feelings, or have they moved on to a life without each other? Watch as their story unfolds and fate writes the next chapter of their lives. Writer's Note - This story is a deeply personal journey, dedicated to myself. Many of the sad parts reflect real-life experiences, while the happy moments, feelings, and endings are surreal-woven from the threads of dreams I couldn't realize. In real life, I couldn't find a happy ending with someone I cared for so deeply. Perhaps we'll never cross paths again. But through this story, I wanted to give myself the happy ending that life didn't grant me.To anyone reading, I hope you find joy, reflection, and perhaps a touch of healing within these pages. Thank you for sharing in this part of me.

"Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly.

We Never Broke Up (A Second Chance Romance)
"So... what about us?" he asked, and I looked at him, a bit bewildered. "What?" I inquired. "You and me... what are we, Sera? You know how you affect me. You make me feel like I'm losing my mind, and I feel incomplete when you're not around. I yearn for your touch, your scent, and everything about you drives me wild," he admitted, his words close to my face. I let out a shaky breath as I felt a warmth spread through my body. "Thad, I think you're getting something wrong," I began, but he interrupted me. "No, you're the one refusing to admit that you're feeling the same way I am," he insisted, causing me to fall silent. He was right, I couldn't deny the feelings i had for him.

Blue Strings - Will You Fall In Love, With Time?
(under editing, interested ones may reach out to me) In the symphony of love, their melodies intertwined, yet fate's chorus whispered no promise of forever. In a journey where hearts yearned but souls wandered apart, they discovered that true love sometimes meant embracing the courage to release, for the sake of finding happiness in the echoes of what could have been. ... SNEAK A PEAK Never have I ever thought that one day, I'll wake up to hear these words from a person I love the most, romantically. I pushed him back, I held him by his shoulders and pinned to the wall. I know I wrongfully confined him, but how dare he? 'You dare question my love for you?" I raised my voice. He is surprised, he widened his little eyes, those I would love to stare at all day or may be he is shocked as well. HAHA!! I Find it annoyingly funny how easily he quoted 'Thank god, You didn't love me too deep in the ocean', "Oh darling, wait till you drown inside and ask for my help when you can't swim to the shore" I retorted and defended my love.Complete
