bittersweet farewell love unspoken

Rhea loved the quiet moments with Arjun-the kind where words weren't needed. She noticed the little things: his crooked smile, the way his fingers tapped absentmindedly, the warmth in his laugh.

For months, her feelings stayed unspoken, tucked away like a secret. But one evening, as the sunset painted the sky orange, she decided to confess.

"I like you," she whispered, clutching the hem of her kurti.

Arjun's smile softened. "I'm sorry, Rhea. I don't feel the same."

They stayed friends for a while, but time pulled them apart. In their goodbye, Rhea found peace-not in having, but in letting go.All Rights Reserved

For the First Time | n.h. by winterings

I look into the blue eyes of my best friend and it feels like staring down a stranger. They are familiar and foreign all in the same moment, glossy and pleading. The dimly lit street allows only enough light to cast glimmers on our faces and subtle shadows on the ground. It's raining but I've hardly noticed; all I see is him. "Megan please don't go," he says desperately. "I-I'm sorry." A tear falls steadily down my cheek. I don't want to go but I have to be strong for myself. I run forward and wrap my arms around him in a hug. "I love you Niall," I say near his ear, "I just don't like the person you've become." I hold back a sob, "When my best friend comes back tell him to find me." I don't say another word I just go, leaving him all alone in the dark street...

Arranged by DESTINY~~ by AARATRIIKAA

AARUSHI's POV: Panic grips my heart as the villagers close in, insisting that I am now bound to a life I never chose. Their faces, painted with fervor, become a blur as I try to gather my thoughts. "No, I can't marry him," I protest, my voice trembling. I glance around for support, feeling the isolation of the moment. Just as despair threatens to consume me, I catch a glimpse of Him. REYANSH's POV: I see the fear in her eyes, and it ignites a protective instinct within me. I can't let her face this alone. "She's already married," I declare, surprising her. The crowd murmurs, doubt clouding their faces. But I press on, "To me." The weight of my words hangs heavy in the air. I feel the pressure of their scrutiny, but I know I must stand firm for her sake. This isn't just about tradition; it's about saving her from a life she does not want. ............................................................................... AARUSHI's POV: I'm torn between gratitude, disbelief and grief. How did I find myself in this situation? His calm demeanor eases my anxiety, yet I can't shake the fear of what lies ahead. This isn't just a farce; it feels so real, and my heart races at the thought of becoming someone's wife, even if it's just for the moment. REYANSH's POV: I glance at her, seeing the flicker of hope amidst the confusion. I vow to protect her, no matter the outcome of this ceremony. What started as a chaotic twist of fate could turn into something beautiful. For the first time, I find myself wanting. Wanting a women, just to myself. BOTH's POV: Perhaps this union could be a new beginning, a chance for us to explore what lies beyond these unforeseen circumstances. .....................................................

Indian Mafia's Obsession by MorallyInked

The night echoed with the distant hum of celebration, but under the moon's soft illumination, Arjun's cold voice cut through the stillness as he entered the room. "Rhea," I barked, my tone reverberating in the quietude of the night. Her eyes met mine, a mix of fear and uncertainty reflecting in them. "What went down at the party," I stilled, taking in Rhea's tear-filled eyes and trembling form. It gripped my heart, but I refused to show it. "You terrified me. Our worlds, they're not meant to intertwine." As she spoke, I roughly pulled her towards the mirror, our reflections merging in the dim light. I sensed her plea to untangle herself from the complexities I brought, yet I wouldn't let go. The vulnerability she exposed, the power she wielded over me, left me wrestling with a force I couldn't wrap my head around. "There's something you need to grasp." Drawing her closer, her back meeting my chest, our eyes locked in the mirrored reflection. The room seemed to constrict around us, as if our connection was reshaping the very space we occupied. "I would kneel the world before you, if it meant keeping you with me. Your absence would be the destruction of everything."" I confessed, the weight of my words hanging in the air. My hands, firm yet gentle, held her close. "Rhea, the world didn't give me choices when the chaos was thrust upon me, but I choose you. You're a part of me now. You're my goddess, my diosa," I admitted, a mix of desperation and longing in my touch as if trying to bridge the gap between our worlds. ************************************************************************************************* Meet Rhea, a talented wedding planner, and Arjun, a Mafia....oops!!! businessman, whose lives collide in the most unexpected way. From an encounter on a fateful flight to a grand wedding proposal. This isn't just any romance-it's an Indian romance with a handful of mafia as a spice, a tale of arranged marriage turned destiny❤️

Silent Desires by jyothi__nagaraj

In a conservative South Indian college, a 27-year-old lecturer and a 19-year-old student from a traditional family navigate a forbidden love. Their journey is filled with romance, jealousy, passion, and anger as they battle societal norms and their own emotions, leading to moments of intense connection and heart-wrenching conflicts. Their eyes met, and the world around them seemed to fade. For a moment, it was just the two of them, the music, and the unspoken connection between them. "Sir, this is..." she began, but he cut her off. "Arjun," he said softly. "Just Arjun tonight." Her lips parted in surprise, but she nodded. "Okay... Arjun. "You look beautiful tonight," he murmured, his voice so soft she almost didn't hear him. Her breath hitched, and she felt her cheeks grow warm. "Thank you... Arjun." He smiled at her use of his name, and for a moment, they forgot about their surroundings. As the song ended, there was a brief shuffle on the dance floor as students moved around. In the commotion, someone bumped into Ananya, causing her to lose her balance. Arjun instinctively reached out to steady her, pulling her close. The sudden movement brought their faces mere inches apart. Before either of them could process what was happening, their lips brushed in a fleeting, accidental kiss. Time seemed to freeze. Ananya's eyes widened in shock, while Arjun's grip on her waist tightened slightly before he quickly stepped back. "I... I didn't mean to-" he began, his voice filled with panic. "It's okay," she interrupted, her face flushed with embarrassment and something she couldn't quite name. They glanced around, relieved to see that no one had noticed the incident. "Maybe we should... step outside for some fresh air," Arjun suggested, his composure barely intact. Ananya nodded, following him out to the garden area, where the cool night air helped calm their racing hearts. ---------------------------------------------------

The New Girl ~ A Mystic Illusion (Duet 1) by shallexia

𝑰𝒇 𝑰 𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒍 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒎𝒚 𝒔𝒆𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒕, 𝒚𝒐𝒖'𝒍𝒍 𝒏𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒚 𝒂𝒈𝒂𝒊𝒏. ⋆ ── ⋆ ── ⋆ "Are you afraid that I'll fall for you?" he asked again, his voice dripping like honey, smooth and melodic beneath the moon-kissed sky. Her long, curled lashes lifted, revealing the storm she kept hidden behind them- only to meet the desperation blooming in his gaze. "No. I'm afraid... you'll fall into my curse." ⋆ ── ⋆ ── ⋆ Secrets are sharp, silent, and dangerous. He lived far from chaos, untouched by deceit, trusting only what was seen, heard, and known. But everything changed the moment she arrived. Quiet, composed, and unreadable-like a storm that whispers before it strikes. She carried an aura that intrigued and unsettled, drawing him in with questions she never answered, and a past she never spoke of. She was flawless on the surface-her smile soft, her presence calm. But beneath that polished calm lay layers of subtle and haunting silence. He despised that-detested liars, mistrusted masks. But something about her made him stay. Each glance felt like a clue, every word a riddle. He wasn't falling in love-he was falling into her mystery, piece by hidden piece. He searched-quietly at first, then relentlessly. Threads of her past slipped through his fingers like smoke, each lead ending in shadows. Until one night, when he pushed too far, when his questions edged too close to the truths she refused to face, she didn't explain-she disappeared. And just like that, the woman he thought he was beginning to understand vanished-without a word, without a trace. All she left behind was the wreckage of his trust and a silence louder than betrayal. This was only the beginning.

Lost in silence by Anu_core

Neither of them admitted what was in their hearts, until a misunderstanding changed everything.

Was it really just a misunderstanding, or was there something more hidden in the shadows? Some stories don't end with a confession-some end with a question this is my 1st story guys so show some love ✨️

Sanely Yours by Ashra45786543

-- PROLOGUE "Let me get this straight. We have nothing in between us, except for the deal we made that day" he spoke in a monotonous tone. "I am the one carrying your name behind me; we are married. how can you say we have nothing in between us? Huh" She yelled at him, tears blurred her vision, and she spoke her heart to him. "For god's sake, this marriage was to save you! Can't you get that? I did not do it willingly, I do not love you!!" He yelled back at her, shattering her heart into pieces. "Why can't you just love me?" She spoke, as she cried the tears of hurt, and pain. Her heart thumped loudly due to the shivering sensation She felt all over her body. "I never made a commitment to you, or gave you any false hope, neither did i say that i love you. Did i?" He asked her, in a very cold tone. She looked at him through her teary eyes. It's getting difficult for her to even breathe. "It was your eyes, the damn eyes. Who gave me the false hope. They say, "Eyes speak the truth," but what about mine? Couldn't you feel the sincerity within them, expressing my deep affection for you? Why didn't you see the love shining in them? Was it too complex to understand? Couldn't you notice the warmth as they gazed at you? They search for you in every corner, If only you realized how they silently echoed the emotions I couldn't articulate. They say, "Eyes never deceive." But what about yours? They played a trick on me when they met mine, painting a facade of a world that wasn't real. They made me feel loved, Leading me into a belief that crumbled, louder than your spoken promises. Why did they betray me? Was it your eyes or you that masked the truth?" He stayed still, not moving or saying anything at her statement. --

She looked at him from the side while sitting on the balcony. The view in front was mesmerizing and so was he. He chuckled lightly as his gaze moved to her. "You mean..." He said while raising his eyebrows slowly and she chuckled again. She adjusted a few strands of her hair neatly and his eyes kept wandering on her face curiously. There was much more hidden beneath that face and the carefree smile she always showed to him. "Yes, I meant what you heard," She said while smiling widely. Her hazel eyes sparkle every time she was happy and excited. "I didn't know that," he said in a low voice and she laughed a little. "Because, maybe you never noticed me," she said in a low voice. Her eyes were speaking in volumes but she moved her gaze away while blinking a few tears gathered in her eyes. After all, she was trying to claim something, she knew was never going to love her back. ------------------ "Dear Krishiv" is a collection of few chapters of Aaradhya's diary. She has poured her heart for Krishiv there and you can find it on my profile. Though that book is connected to "Be With Me", both can be read as standalone.
