The Bloom After the Burn
There are moments in life that scorch you.
Not the kind you see coming but the kind that leave you gasping, bare, unfamiliar even to yourself. I didn't know how many versions of me I would have to bury just to survive. I didn't know that love could feel like drowning with a smile on your face. Or that grief could sneak in quietly, years after the loss.
But what I know now is this
Something still grows after the fire.
Even if it's slow. Even if it's messy. Even if you have to drag yourself through the ashes to get there.
This story isn't just about heartbreak.
It's about love, the kind that lit me up and the kind that almost destroyed me.
It's about silence and screaming.
About a little girl who wanted to be seen and a woman who finally saw herself.
This is my bloom after the burn.
And maybe, in some way, it's yours too.

Wounded Heart ✔
She loved him with devotion so fierce it scorched every heartbeat, every glance. He was her obsession, her reason to breathe, and her undoing. But while her world revolved around him, he remained distant-a presence, never hers. "How do you let go of someone who is the air in your lungs and the ache in your heart?" "He is my breath, and I will forget him when I forget to breathe." Memories burned bright and untouchable-hers alone. She clung to each haunted fragment, every echo of forbidden love. Until fate, honouring a promise to Aashi, forced her into the arms of the man whose heart was a graveyard. "I married you to fulfil her last wish. You will never belong here." His words cut deep-cold, calculated, meant to wound. Cruelty hid his storm. Her silence was her weapon, her pain a fortress. "You think you know pain?" she spat, her eyes blazing. "I live it every day." He turned away, fists clenched. "You don't belong. This will never be your home." Yet, in their grief and fury, sparks flew, igniting something dangerous. "Love and hate are two sides of the same burning coin." When apologies come too late, and regret drowns truth, love risks turning to ash. She walks away, her heart in ruins. He falls, shattered-vowing to bleed, to burn, to reignite the fire in her eyes. "Some hearts are forged in fire. Some burn to ashes." Even if it destroys him. 📅 Start Date: 28th October 2019 ⏳ End Date: 23rd October 2020 ✏️ Edited Date: 2026Kumpleto
Echoes of Us
He was alone, adrift in a life that felt empty, teetering on the edge of despair. She appeared unexpectedly-a stranger, yet someone who could see him in ways no one else ever had. One night, one moment, changed everything. Words were exchanged, hearts opened, and lives were altered but some encounters leave more than memories. They leave echoes. As time stretches on, love and loss weave together, shaping the paths we walk, the choices we make, and the people we become. How far would you go to hold onto someone... even when you know they can't stay?Kumpleto
Unwritten Pages
I was never meant to stand out. Just a quiet guy in a crowded world-walking hallways, reading books I never cared about, watching people laugh from a distance. Then one day... she forgot her book in the library, Hana. She didn't say much. She never smiled. But for the first time, I saw someone who felt like a reflection of me - Alone. Detached. Tired. I don't know why I picked up her book, but I did. And that one, simple decision? It changed everything. This isn't some perfect love story. We didn't fall fast. We just... found each other-in the silence, in the grief, in the little moments most people overlook. This is about loneliness. About losing everything. About finding someone when you've stopped looking. And about learning to live, even when your days are numbered. This is our story. These are our... Unwritten Pages.Kumpleto

The cold silver of my waist chain pressed into my bare stomach as he pinned me flush against the heavy mahogany of his study desk. "You think you can hide from me, Little Bird?" His voice was a lethal, gravelly whisper against my ear, sending a violent shiver of wet heat straight to my core. "You think you can wear things that beg to be ripped off, and I won't collect what belongs to me?" I gasped as his rough fingers hooked under the delicate lace of my panties, snapping the thin fabric effortlessly. "Aarav, please-" "Please what?" He bit down on the sensitive skin of my neck, swallowing my desperate whimper. His thick thigh forced my knees apart, leaving me completely, helplessly exposed to his burning, pitch-black gaze. "Tell me exactly what you want. Use your words, Priyanshi." My nails dug into his broad shoulders, my entire body trembling with a heavy, throbbing ache that only he could cure. I looked into the eyes of the devil I married, finally surrendering to his darkness. "Please," I sobbed, my hips arching eagerly into his touch. "Please, Aarav. Take it." A wicked, triumphant smirk touched his lips. "Good girl. Now, scream for me." · · ─ ·𖥸· ─ · · Priyanshi Verma prayed to Krishna for a fairytale love story.

STILL YOURS
Some love stories don't end. they just hit pause, waiting for the right time and maybe a little courage to hit play again. They thought they'd moved on new lives, new routines, new playlists. But when a surprise reunion throws them back into each other's orbits, all those once-buried feelings start bubbling up again. Sure, there were heartbreaks, awkward silences, and a few epic misunderstandings. But also? Laughter, late-night talks, and a love that never quite went away. Now, with the past behind them and maybe a little more wisdom , they're faced with one big question: is it time to finally give their love story the ending or a new beginning that it always deserved?
Where The Fireworks Felt Gentle
Three years ago, I thought I had everything - a relationship that looked perfect on the outside but slowly burned me from within. I was the girl who stayed, even when the silence between us was louder than any explosion in the sky. It started with a lie - a hidden account, a woman I was told not to worry about, and a month of being ghosted for simply asking why. I cried, begged, and convinced myself that love was meant to be endured, that pain was just proof of how much I cared. But love shouldn't feel like walking through smoke, trying to find someone who's already gone. Love shouldn't make you afraid of the noise. And yet, I stayed - blinded by the sparks that hurt more than they shined. Until one December night beneath a sky of bursting colors, someone stood beside me. The world was loud, but for the first time, I wasn't afraid. The fireworks that once made me flinch now felt soft, safe... gentle. That was the night everything changed. That was the night I learned what love was truly meant to feel like.
The Sound Of Your Voice
Dylan Bautista, the 25-year-old boy next door turned world-famous singer, musician, and painter, seemed to have everything-fame, fortune, and the kind of smile that made the world believe he was untouchable. But beneath the stage lights and painted canvases, his world begins to dim when he's diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder known as Usher Syndrome. The news comes crashing down the same night a devastating car accident steals his coordination and balance, trapping his once-brilliant hands in trembling silence. The trauma speeds up the cruel progress of his illness, blurring his hearing, fading his vision, and locking him inside a body that no longer dances to his music. Even the wealth and devotion of his adoptive parents can't buy back the rhythm of his steps or the clarity of his art. As months fade into endless therapy sessions, Dylan's reflection becomes a ghost of who he once was. When tragedy strikes again and his parents die suddenly, the last piece of his world finally shatters. In the silence left behind, enters Lea, the quiet, patient nurse hired by his late parents' trusted secretary to guide him through his brokenness. With each day she tends to him, Lea begins to see the man beneath the fame-the boy who still dreams of color and melody in a world going dark. Her care becomes more than duty; it becomes a lifeline pulling him toward hope, piece by fragile piece. But can she truly heal a man whose world is fading both in sound and sight? Or will Dylan's descent into silence swallow every song and stroke he has left to give? Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real people or events is purely coincidental - but if it feels real, that's because the heart remembers what the mind forgets. If they remind you of someone or something real, maybe it's because pain and hope speak a language we all understand. Still, if you see pieces of your own story here, take it as a reminder - even in fiction, healing is possible.
