'It was a wonderful night, the kind of night that can perhaps only happen when we are young, dear reader.' With this sentence, Dostoyevsky opens his story of an incipient love that arises from the chance encounter between the lonely narrator and the young Nastenka. Over four nights, the two reveal their fears and longings to each other. But Nastenka's heart belongs to someone else. Dostoyevsky's 'sensitive novel' tells of unfulfilled love in a moving and sensitive way.

Echoes Of The Bell
In a world of late-night texts and forgotten homework, there are some stories that aren't written in a book. They're drawn in the margins of a notebook and whispered across a classroom. This is one of them. It began with a glance that felt like a secret-a tiny, perfect moment that turned the ordinary halls of high school into an adventure. It's the story of shared headphones and hand-holding under a starlit sky, of a romance so pure and hopeful it felt like a dream you never wanted to wake from. This is a journey through first loves and first goodbyes. It's a story about finding the courage to fall, even when you know there's a chance you might get hurt. The bell has rung. The story begins now.
Paper Hearts
Ananya and Lalit's story was never meant to be a grand love affair. It started with quiet conversations, shared books, and the comfort of each other's presence. When they finally decide to date, it isn't out of passion but out of possibility-Ananya, hopeful and sincere; Lalit, searching for an escape from a past he can't quite leave behind. At first, everything flows effortlessly-late-night talks, stolen glances, the warmth of companionship. But love is not always about beginnings. As their bond deepens, unspoken doubts creep in. Ananya falls completely, while Lalit hesitates, torn between his past and the present he isn't sure he belongs to. What happens when affection turns into confusion, when one moves forward while the other stands still? A story of love, longing, and the quiet unraveling of something that was never meant to last.Complete
Bad state
Y/n has always carried their battles in silence, convincing themselves that the weight of their thoughts is theirs alone to bear. On the surface, the world moves on-rain falls, days pass, people laugh-but inside, Y/n feels stuck in a storm they can't escape. Then comes Natasha: patient, steady, and unexpectedly kind. She doesn't push. She doesn't demand answers. Instead, she offers quiet company, gentle reminders that love doesn't have to be loud to be powerful, and that healing can begin in the smallest of moments. As Y/n learns to let someone in, their connection with Natasha grows-slowly, tenderly, and honestly. But trusting love while navigating the shadows of mental health isn't easy. Together, they must discover what it means to build something real-piece by piece, heart by heart. A slow-burn romance about vulnerability, healing, and the kind of love that stays through the rain.
Brutally yours
To the quiet girls with stormy hearts. To the boys who feel too much but show too little. To those who were never chosen first - but loved like they were the last. This story is for the unseen, the unheard, the untamed. For every soul who thought they were "too soft" for this world - and found someone who didn't just see their softness, but protected it with fire. For anyone who still believes that love isn't always gentle - but when it's real, it is brutally honest, brutally fierce, and brutally yours. And most of all - To the one who dreams loud in silence: This is your story. You just haven't lived it yet.Complete
