She paints. He runs a billion-dollar company. And he's a single dad.

Diya and Yash were childhood best friends - she followed dreams dipped in color, while he chased ambition and success. Years later, their paths cross again in the most unexpected way. But Yash is no longer just the charming boy next door - he's a father now, juggling board meetings with bedtime stories and building empires while raising a tiny human.

Diya, still chasing her breakthrough as an artist, never expected her quiet life to collide with his chaotic one. Yet here they are - reunited, tangled in memories, unspoken feelings, and a bond stronger than time.

As old friendship rekindles into something deeper, they're forced to ask:
Can love bloom in the messiness of real life - where crayons meet contracts, and a child's giggle can rewrite everything?

This isn't just a love story.
It's about second chances, chosen families, and the quiet kind of forever that sneaks up on you - messy, magical, and completely unexpected.

✨ Tropes you'll find inside:

Childhood best friends to lovers

Second chance romance

Single dad with a soft heart

Slow-burn love

Hidden identity (he doesn't know it's her)

Reunited by fate

Healing through love and art

The Faded Vows by lynk992925

He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.
