"I Thought I Had Fallen for My Cousin"
Celine was a kind soul-gentle, warm, and loved by many. Her heart was as open as her smile, and people naturally gravitated toward her. Among everyone in her life, no one was closer to her than Janie, her cousin who felt more like a sister. They shared secrets, dreams, and a bond that nothing seemed strong enough to break.
But everything changed when Celine traveled to Dapada. There, she met a guy named Dames. From the very first moment, something about him felt different-familiar, comforting, yet exciting. Celine was the first to fall in love. But as their days together grew longer and their bond deeper, it became clear: he may not have fallen first, but he fell harder.
They created beautiful memories-quiet laughs under the stars, long talks about the future, silly adventures, and gentle promises. For a while, it felt like they were meant to last forever. Soulmates, perhaps.
But forever came too soon.
One day, Celine discovered something that shattered her world: Dames was her third cousin.
The truth hit her like a storm. Guilt wrapped around her like chains, and her heart felt heavy with confusion and pain. The love that once felt so pure suddenly became something forbidden, something she could no longer hold onto.
Celine's world, once full of light and laughter, turned into a maze of hurt, guilt, and silent heartbreak. She questioned everything-her choices, her fate, and the cruel twist that brought Dames into her life only to tear them apart.
She still carries the memories. She still carries the love. But now, she walks with a quiet sadness... a reminder that even the most beautiful stories can come with painful endings.
