welve years ago, Ankush stood at the edge of a cliff, ready to give in to the void-until he heard a faint chuckle in the shadows, leading him to Diya. Her presence saved him, pulling him from despair and breathing life into his hollow existence. She became his anchor, his love, and the light in his darkest nights.
But now, she's gone.
Everyone insists she never existed, that she's nothing more than a figment of his imagination. But Ankush remembers her touch, her laugh, her undeniable presence. He remembers how she brought purpose to his life.
Desperate for answers, Ankush sets off on a haunting journey, following the scattered fragments she left behind: a melody in the wind, whispers in dreams, and traces of her existence etched in forgotten places. With every step, the lines between reality and illusion blur, and Ankush must confront his deepest fears and regrets.
Was Diya ever real, or is she just the ghost of something Ankush lost within himself?
In a tale that weaves love and longing with the surreal, Faded explores the ache of loss, the fragility of memory, and the hope found in rediscovering oneself.

Y/N had long since perfected the art of hiding the cracks in her heart, a quiet ache that lingered beneath the surface, unnoticed by the world around her. Trust had been shattered too many times, leaving behind only the remnants of love she once gave so freely. The weight of solitude clung to her like a second skin, and each day she walked through life as though she were a ghost, watching the world pass by, yearning for something she couldn't quite reach. But when the night embraced her, when sleep whispered its soft lullaby, everything changed. In the silence of her dreams, something shifted-though her eyes could not see, her heart felt it. It was a presence, gentle yet unyielding, that made her believe, just for a moment, that there was more to life than the ache she carried. A presence that whispered in the stillness, as though it had always known her, waiting in the spaces where dreams met reality. In that sacred space, between waking and sleeping, Y/N began to feel the warmth of something new. It was not a dream, but something more-a promise, tender yet powerful, that whispered softly to her soul. "I can't promise you a perfect world, but in this moment, let me be the one who never lets you go." In The Dreamer's Embrace, Y/N begins a journey where the weight of silence starts to lift, revealing a connection she never expected-a love, not of fantasy, but something she's always longed for. Will she open her heart to this strange, beautiful presence, or will the weight of her past keep her trapped in the shadows?

Forget-Me-Not: Taste of Freedom
Sequel to 'Forget-Me-Not: Bound by Secrets' http://www.wattpad.com/myworks/4626654-forget-me-not-bound-by-secrets How can a person-- taken away from you forever, their existence a mere mark on the sand-- turn your whole life upside down by not being? Ananya Nanda is dead, but the echoes of her words still ring in the lives of her friends. Even in death, she has triumphed. Her presence had twisted lives... but her absence bubbles with the makings of a potent disaster. In a last effort to save everything they ever had, everything they lost, she must find a way to reach out to the people she battered and pushed away eleven years ago-- without being there to witness the transformation. It is true that the present does not wait for past woes to be resolved, and an echo from the past cannot mould the future. It might just be too late to piece together broken friendships, broken trust and broken relationships-- but nothing ever stopped Ananya from trying, and this time, she has all the more reason to succeed. Nothing can stop her from doing what she did not do eleven years ago: overcoming the demons that stood between her and freedom. Overcoming herself. The spark that she left behind is not just a remnant of her victoriuos struggle-- it is her gift to the three most beautiful people in her life who never strayed far from her heart, no matter how far they might be from her. They might hate her for what she did, but they would never forget what she was leaving behind... a part of herself, for each to behold, and a path to their freedom.Complete
