Wishing. Waiting. Until after graduation... something changed. But sometimes, love comes too late. And some stories don't get the happy ending they deserve. "Maybe someday... he would love her too.

    "Almost, Always" 🍁🌹 Some people enter your life like whispers...soft, sudden, and gone before you can hold on. She didn't expect to see him again. Not after years, not like this. Not when she had finally learned how to forget the boy who never truly left her mind. But fate isn't loud..it's quiet, casual... cruel. In a classroom filled with noise, their glances screamed stories. A slow-burn connection, unsaid words, and almosts that could've been everything. This is not a fairytale. This is a memory rewritten..with the ending she deserved.

    When The Lights Went Out
    When The Lights Went Out
    A soul withdrawn from the world, finding comfort only in silence, carries a wound no light can reach. Shadows are safer than connection, and solitude becomes both refuge and prison. Into this darkness steps a spirit unbroken by blindness, one who chooses kindness even when life has offered only pain. Where others see loss, there is still light; where others turn bitter, there is still grace. A tale of contrasts, of wounds and wonder, of two hearts bound by fate yet destined to fall apart.

    Where Dreams Remember: I'll Always be Here
    Where Dreams Remember: I'll Always be Here
    Some dreams are just fragments - light and sound, fleeting and strange. But others... They settle into your chest like old memories, soft and impossible to forget. This is a story about one of those dreams. About a girl whose quiet heart began to remember a life she had never lived - not here, anyway. And a boy whose presence crossed time, space, and reason. A boy who said nothing at first... Only smiled. Only stayed. Together, they built a world between sleep and waking - a place of benches under cherry blossoms, of whispered comfort, of guitar strings and warm hands. And every time she returned, the dream knew her name. But the lines between dreaming and remembering began to blur. One day, she would open a photo... And realize it wasn't just a dream after all. Because when love is real - real enough to survive distance, silence, and the pull of two different dimensions - it doesn't disappear. It waits. It remembers. It protects. And it whispers... "I'll always be here."
