"They never promised each other forever.
In fact, they never promised anything at all.
But somehow, in the quiet moments between hello and goodbye, something timeless began.
This isn't a perfect love story.
It's a story of silences that spoke, glances that lingered, and a love that never asked to be noticed - only felt.
And maybe, just maybe... it was always meant to be."

Author's Note
Dear Reader,
Welcome to a story that is not just about love, but the quiet spaces between. It's about finding unexpected connections, losing yourself, and returning to truths you never knew you carried. This is not a tale of fireworks - but of stars that quietly realign to guide two people together.
Thank you for walking beside Safiya, Nila, and everyone in this world.
With ink-stained dreams,
Inked Soul

The Guy I Could Never Have
Some people arrive quietly. No fireworks. No background music. Just a look. A name. A violet shirt in a white room. You don't realize it's the start. Not until you're too far in. I didn't fall for him the way stories say you should. There was no moment of knowing. Just a slow ache that built between library tables and half-finished coffee cups. The kind of love that feels like a question no one teaches you how to ask. We were never official. Never obvious. We were playlists. Eye contact. A sentence that almost sounded like confession-until it didn't. And somewhere in that space between almost and never, I became someone I didn't recognize. Someone quieter. Smaller. And then... someone who walked away. This is not a story about the guy I ended up with. This is about the one I couldn't have. The one who arrived too late. The one who taught me that not all love stories need a happy ending- Some just need a girl who finally chooses herself. And this time, I did.Complete
Never A Choice
"No matter the choices I'm given, it'll always be you, Aurie." He was her best friend, her safe place, her everything-the one person who shared the weight on her shoulders. Every laugh, every secret whispered in the night, every quiet moment that stitched to the fabric of her heart made her feel like the world belonged only to them. But then, in the blink of an eye, he chose someone else. Her world crumbles down. Unaware of the truth behind his decision, Aurora Everhart is left to face the hollow ache of losing him. But as fate pulls her between love and heartbreak, she can't shake the question that still haunts her, 'Was I ever really a choice?' "No one shielded me from the storm the way you did, Ronnie. But now you're leaving me alone with nothing to cover myself." His whole world revolved around her, his only best friend, the one person he thought he knew better than anyone else. He understood her every laugh, every whisper, every unspoken thought...but never the secret she had kept so carefully hidden from him, just as his own heart held truths he hadn't fully understood. Bounded by a promise and terrified of the truth buried deep inside that he refuses to acknowledge, he's forced to choose someone else and leave his Aurie alone in the storm. Will he ever be able to win her back, even after the choices he's made? The two promises that tore his life apart- the one that he still upholds and the other that he failed to keep- whisper words of desolation in his ear: 'I promise to keep you happy, I promise to... marry you' and 'I promise, my baby strawberry, if I'm ever lost, I'll always find my way back to you.' We often think the heart and the brain are at odds, but in their tale, we get to know that hearts themselves are their own fiercest contradictors - stubborn, unrelenting, and impossible to ignore.
Regret it
Something doesn't FIT RIGHT..... They went to the same middle school... They went to the same High School... But for some reason they separated their paths and went to different university... Something HAPPENED... Someone DIED... Everyone CHANGED... The police believe it's a suicide. Though they all blame themselves individually but only ONE knows the TRUTH... Though it must stay hidden and to keep it HIDDEN, he or she has to keep EVERYONE SEPARATED... DIFFERENT STORIES, NONE ALIGN, WHAT IS THE MISSING PIECE AND ABOVE ALL ,WHO HAS IT?
The Space Between Souls
In every lifetime, their souls brush against each other like twilight and dawn-always aching for union, forever kept apart. In the quiet spaces between words unspoken and touches that linger a heartbeat too long, two souls uncover the cruelest truth of all: that love doesn't always come when we're free to receive it. Between stolen glances and conversations that dance around confession, between the safety of friendship and the danger of something deeper, lies a love so profound it threatens to undo everything they thought they were. This is a love not measured in years together, but in fleeting moments that burn brighter than forever. What do you do when your soul finds its match in the wrong person at the wrong time? How do you love someone completely while knowing that love may never find the light? How do you say goodbye to someone who feels like home? Some love stories end in wedding bells. Others end in wisdom. This is the story of a love that lived entirely in the space between what was and what could never be- and how sometimes, that space contains the most beautiful tragedy of all.
When We Were Still... Now We're Not (Friendship #3)
Some stories begin quietly... and end with a bang. Mira and Zach's love was a secret stitched into the past-memories that lingered, words left unsaid, and a bond neither expected to face again. Years later, fate reunites them at Mira's wedding. But what was once hidden is now impossible to ignore. Old feelings clash with new realities, and every choice could change everything. As vows are about to be exchanged, Mira must confront the truth of her heart-and decide if the life she planned is the one she really wants. Because sometimes, the right person comes back into your life when you least expect it. And sometimes, the hardest choice is letting go... or holding on. The Friendship Series ends here, with love, closure, and a final, unforgettable decision.Complete

Before The World Knew Our Story
They saw each other before anyone else did. Before the noise, before the chaos, before love had a name. Two souls who weren't supposed to meet.. yet somehow always did. From quiet late-night calls to stadium lights and storms, they learned how love can be both a home and a battlefield. This is the story of the girl who believed in signs and the boy who didn't.. until she became one. A story of distance, pride, laughter and everything that came before the world knew their names.
Their First, And Last

Not the kind you read about. Not the kind that stays. She loved deeply, silently, and selflessly... but life never loved her back the same way. And he-he wasn't searching for anyone. He didn't even know what love looked like until he looked at her. And suddenly, he just knew. This isn't a story of second chances. There was never a first. This is the beginning they never expected- when two lonely hearts crash softly, and build a kind of love that feels like home for the very first time. It's not her last... It's her first, too. And maybe... finally... her always.
