It all started with a simple 'Hi.' A message like any other. But this time, something was different.
Feslin wasn't expecting much when she met Efes on a social media app. She had grown tired of empty conversations and predictable greetings-until him. His words felt different, his humor genuine, and for the first time in a long while, she found herself drawn to someone she had never met in person.
As their connection deepens, Feslin's heart begins to blur the lines between friendship and love. But what happens when those feelings aren't returned? What happens when the messages that once made her smile start to fade, replaced by silence?
"Fading Messages" is a poignant story of love, loss, and the slow, inevitable drift between two souls who were never meant to be. A tale about the connections that shape us, the heartbreaks that define us, and the memories that linger long after the final message is left unread."

ALMOST HERS
LOVING HER WAS NEVER PART OF THE PLAN But they say the heart wants what it cannot have. It starts as a fleeting thought, a quiet admiration, and before you know it, you're caught in a whirlwind of emotions you can't explain. This is a story of unspoken feelings, of longing that stretches across an invisible line-too close, yet never close enough. What do you do when the one thing you want is the one thing you can never have? Some loves aren't meant to be, but they still leave their mark.
Tangled Love
"You only live once." This is the overly used excuse that we use every time we make a decision and that's fine because it's true. This also goes with 'Love'. For once in our lives, we would eventually experience this love - the kind of love that just can't die. A love, though not being returned, we are still willing to take the risk. We expect that somehow, someday we will be rewarded. But how long can we give that love a chance? Are we really capable of giving so much without asking anything in return? Are we really capable of being happy, just seeing the person we love happy with someone else? How can we untangle something so twisted like LOVE? How can we survive without breaking? How can we live without hating? Brace yourself for it will be a long roller coaster ride to what we call 'HAPPINESS' - D A L E (myLovelymind) Cover by: @ShebaHanna 🎉Complete

The Unbreakable Thread Of LOVE
What is Love? Is it merely a fleeting emotion, or could True Love truly last forever? What of the elusive Thread of Love-is it strong enough to endure the trials of time, or can it snap under the weight of despair? And what of love at first sight? Is it a genuine phenomenon, or simply a figment of our imagination? Picture this: a Girl meets a Boy for the first time, and in that moment, they discover feelings that ignite something deep within them-something they never knew existed. What is this sensation that takes hold of their hearts? But how did they come to meet? Ah, that is where the story unfolds. They encounter each other during a practice-a practice that seems mundane at first but holds the potential for something extraordinary. What kind of practice, you ask? That's for you to discover later, as revealing too much now would spoil the thrill of the journey ahead. Yet, let's not ignore the shadows that linger over the Girl. Before this moment, she was shrouded in darkness, carrying a burden that weighed heavily on her heart. Why does she hurt so deeply? Trust me, you'll come to understand her pain-and perhaps, you'll find that in the depths of their shared experiences, they may forge an unbreakable bond that even the harshest trials cannot sever. The tale is just beginning. Stay tuned, for the true essence of their story lies ahead, waiting to be unraveled.Complete
