Scars on Silent Stone

**"Scars on the Silent Stone"**

*Some wounds fade. Others carve themselves into the soul, unmoving-like scars on stone.*

She met him at thirteen, a boy who seemed untouchable, a presence that made the world feel smaller when he was near. She admired him, envied him, hated him, loved him-all at once, in ways she could never quite name. But love was never theirs to claim, only to ruin.

He left her with silence where there should have been answers, and she carried that silence like a weight too heavy to put down. Years passed, and fate brought them together again-only for her to realize that time does not mend what was never healed.

This is not a love story.

It's a story of a girl who learned to live with the scars someone else left behind. A story of a boy who never realized what he lost until it was too late. And a story of a promise-to punish him, to punish herself, to never let history repeat itself.

Because some endings aren't about revenge. They're about *walking away first this time.*
