Visha: A Deadly Poison
The past lingered in her eyes, a haunting reminder of the trauma she'd endured. Years had passed since that fateful night, but the scars remained. The memories of her mother's lifeless body, her boyfriend's desperate attempt to save her, and his ultimate sacrifice still burned within her. The injustice that followed, fueled by deceit and manipulation, had only added to her pain. The photograph, taken in the heat of her grief, had sealed her fate. A snapshot of her holding the knife, her boyfriend's lifeless body behind her, had been twisted to portray her as the killer. The truth, however, was far more sinister. The rain poured down like tears from the heavens, washing away the city's sins, but not the memories. She stood there, her eyes fixed on the spot where her world had crumbled. The laughter, the love, the life - all lost in an instant. The knife, still lodged in her memory, seemed to pierce her heart anew. Now, she's back, driven by a burning desire for revenge against those who wronged her. The system failed her once, but she won't let it happen again. This time, she's ready to take matters into her own hands.
Silent Whispers Of Love
"Some stories aren't written in ink - they're written in glances, silence, and the beating of two hearts that never stopped remembering." Ash, a bright village girl with city dreams, has always been the strong one - the topper, the responsible daughter, the quiet observer of her parents' endless quarrels. Behind her smile hides a heart that trembles at the sound of fights, and a soul still healing from a pain no one ever noticed. Then there's Aarav - the boy who walked into her class in eighth grade and never stopped looking at her since. He saw her laughter, her strength, her silence - and fell for all of it. But when he confessed, she chose reason over love. Different castes. Different paths. Same heartbeat. Years later, destiny crosses their paths again - now grown, scarred, and searching. Between panic attacks and shared memories, between fear and longing, Ash and Aarav rediscover what it truly means to love - silently, selflessly, and deeply. 💫 A story of first love, unspoken promises, mental health, and the strength to heal - because sometimes, silence speaks louder than words.Complete
