She was his sister's best friend. He was the secret she was never meant to discover.

---

Isha Mukherjee has always lived a quiet life-rooted in tradition, surrounded by love, and anchored by two best friends who know her better than she knows herself. But when her family moves from Kolkata to Mumbai, she leaves behind more than just home.

Years later, on the cusp of adulthood, a chance encounter with Vikram Chatterjee-her best friend's older brother-unravels a truth she never saw coming. He is calm, distant, and impossibly familiar. And he's been silently in love with her for years.

Torn between loyalty and longing, Isha must choose whether to protect the friendships that built her, or embrace a love that grew in the silence between them.

A slow-burn, emotional rollercoaster about duty, forbidden love, and the courage it takes to choose your own ending.

"I can consider your request," he finally replied, causing her face to light up with hope. The weight of her desperation seemed to lift momentarily, replaced by a glimmer of possibility. But then, Kabir paused, making her heart sink. "On one condition," he added, his voice low and serious. The room suddenly felt suffocating, as if the air had been sucked out, leaving only tension and uncertainty. "Finish what we started the other day." His words hung in the air, heavy with unspoken desires and unfinished business. Kiara furrowed her brows, confusion evident on her face. "What do you mean?" she asked, her voice trembling slightly. Her mind raced, desperately trying to piece together the fragments of their shared history. Kabir leaned in closer, whispering into her ear. "Spend the night here," he said, his words sending a shockwave through her body. Her eyes widened in disbelief, unable to digest what she was hearing. The room seemed to spin, blurring the boundaries between reality and fantasy. She had never expected this twist in their complicated relationship. Then she remembered a few months ago, during a moment of vulnerability, they had shared a passionate kiss. It had been a fleeting moment, a stolen connection that had left her breathless and yearning for more. She had come to Kabir to mend things between him and her best friend, Maya, but now he was suggesting something completely unexpected. Her mind raced, torn between the fear of crossing boundaries and the intoxicating allure of the unknown. Should she give in to her desires, risking everything she held dear? Or should she walk away, preserving the fragile equilibrium of their lives? story will updated every week

Baawariyaa {COMPLETED✔️} by hazeleyedsoul

She was the girl who never spoke up. He was the boy who couldn't. Saanjh has always followed the rules - the good daughter, the quiet listener, the perfect bride-in-making. But behind her composed silence lies a heart aching to be heard. Then comes Vihaan - the boy with ink-stained fingers, untamed thoughts, and a voice the world rarely hears. Once silenced by selective mutism, Vihaan now chooses his words carefully... and his people even more so. He doesn't speak much - but when he does, it feels like poetry. Their connection is not loud. It doesn't come with grand confessions or dramatic moments. It comes in shared glances, late-night scribbles, and quiet understanding. In a world that punishes softness, their silence becomes rebellion - and their love, a sanctuary. A tender, aching tale of two misfits who find in each other the courage to be seen, to be heard, and to be entirely themselves - no apologies, no noise, just truth. Some stories don't need words to be felt. Some loves begin in silence... and never stop speaking.

Between Faith And Forever by bhoomi_wrts_13

"Some love stories are not chosen... they quietly happen in the spaces between duty and silence." Kainaat Ali has spent her life behind the walls of an orthodox Delhi home, a girl with an English degree and a heart full of unspoken words. To her parents, she is a burden. To the world, she barely exists. Hriday Tyagi lives a quiet life in Gurugram, sharing a flat with his childhood friend Danish Ali. He is respectful, patient, and far from the chaos of love. When family pressure threatens to bind Kainaat to a life she dreads, Danish proposes an unexpected solution-marry his best friend, Hriday. A marriage of convenience. No love. No promises. Only a quiet agreement to keep her safe. Now, Kainaat steps into a bachelor's flat that smells of coffee and rain, where silence lingers in the corners, and every soft gesture from Hriday begins to stir something she never knew she was allowed to feel. In a world where faith, family, and fate stand in the way, can a home built on unspoken moments ever become a love story?

WHEN HEARTS WHISPER by uswamalik23

They say the best love stories start with friendship. Ours started with late-night coffee runs, stolen laughter in the library, and the kind of unspoken bond that felt... unbreakable. Prisha Sharma never believed in fairytales. She believed in books, in dreams, in walls built high enough to keep her heart safe. Ishan Kishan was the exception. Her constant. Her safe place. Her best friend. But what happens when late-night calls start to feel different? When a simple touch feels like fire, and every glance carries a thousand unspoken words? Because somewhere between "just friends" and "something more", our hearts began to whisper... And the question is - how long can you ignore a whisper before it becomes a scream?
