Almost Something | ✓
Three years ago, they shared a single evening that never quite left them- a conversation too easy, laughter too familiar, a pull too strong for strangers. But the timing was wrong, the circumstances messier than either could admit. No second date. No promises. Now, out of the blue, his name lights up her screen, like a ghost who never really died. She answers. What follows isn't dramatic-just two voices, unexpectedly familiar, threading their way through old silences. Do they still mean something to each other... or is this just emotional static stirred by nostalgia? They don't know. Maybe it's fate catching a glitch. Or maybe, some stories aren't meant to be rewritten- just reread once before putting them down for good.Complete
Beautiful Between
In a world that worships certainty and clear lines, two souls find home in the blurred spaces between. One teaches history, quietly carrying the weight of memory. The other builds empires but aches for something real. Their meeting is not thunderous-but a gentle shift, a slow-burning warmth that softens walls built over years. As old wounds stir and forgotten names echo, they learn that love is not loud. It's the silence that stays. The hand that doesn't let go. The smile that says-"I see you, all of you, and I'm still here." A story of tenderness blooming after heartbreak, of laughter in awkward first touches, and of finally letting go of the past-not to forget, but to make space for something true. Because sometimes, the most beautiful love stories aren't perfect. They're simply... beautiful between.Complete
The Silence After Coffee
💔 The Silence After Coffee Two souls once in love find themselves back where it all began - a quiet café, seven years after their goodbye. Rica, a writer who left to rebuild her life abroad, returns home seeking closure. Jay, the man she once walked away from, still carries the echo of what they were. Over cold cups of coffee and unspoken memories, they finally say the words they never had the courage to before - their apologies, their truths, their last "thank you." In the silence that follows, they discover that some love stories aren't meant to last forever. Some are meant to teach you how to let go - gently, completely, and with peace. Because not all endings are happy. But some endings heal. And sometimes... the silence after coffee is where love truly says goodbye.Complete

A Dress, A Glance and Him
Some silences speak louder than love confessions. Lune didn't wear dresses. Endri didn't ask questions. Until one morning changed both. Set in the quiet corridors and shadowed classrooms of a university , when Lune shows up in a black dress she wouldn't normally wear, and Endri crosses the street just to walk beside her, something shifts. What starts as casual teasing and coffee turns into something heavier-silent glances across classrooms, prose that sounds too personal, bruises that don't have stories, and a past that doesn't want to stay buried. It's about the unspoken things. The mornings that mean more than they should. The friend you never meant to fall into. And the distance you keep... just to feel safe. A soft, emotional slow-burn about friendship that might be something more-if only someone were brave enough to say it.Complete

Widow's Moon
They were never meant to look at each other. Never meant to speak beyond what duty allowed. And yet-they did. Their love did not bloom in daylight. It grew in glances. In footsteps that echoed too closely. In words left unsaid because speaking them out loud would shatter everything. It is not a loud kind of love. It doesn't demand or beg. It simply exists-soft, patient, aching. A love that asks for nothing, yet gives everything. A love that dares to exist even when no one is watching. A love that was never allowed to begin... and yet somehow, never ended. Because even in a world that told them you cannot, their hearts whispered, *but we already did. --- Will they end up together??
Not every scar is visible. Not every silence is empty. Two hearts. Two pasts. One story waiting to unfold. In a world full of noise, will they hear each other?
