Kaison, an accountancy student who lives by numbers and routine, never expected that love could be both the softest and loudest thing in his world.
Harper, a political science major who speaks in ideals and dreams, believed love could fix everything-until timing proved him wrong.
Their story wasn't tragic. Just... unfinished.
A love that bloomed too early, wilted too soon, and lingered like a ghost in every quiet night.
But healing doesn't always come with closure. Sometimes it comes in laughter shared with new friends, in mornings that don't ache anymore, in the peace of remembering without pain.
"The Quiet After You"is a story about learning to breathe again after heartbreak, about finding home within yourself, and about love that-despite distance, time, and silence-remains softly alive somewhere between goodbye and someday.
Because red strings don't break. They just wait.

"A Quiet Love" is a story built in silence - in the weight of things left unsaid, and the ache of what could be. It follows two souls whose lives intertwine in quiet moments rather than loud declarations, where every glance, every fleeting touch, and every shared pause carries more meaning than words ever could. Their love is not the kind that demands attention - it simmers beneath the surface, tender and restrained, burning softly even when buried under fear, pride, and circumstance. At its core, A Quiet Love is about yearning - the kind that twists in your chest and lingers long after the moment has passed. Both characters find comfort in one another, yet neither dares to cross the fragile line between friendship and something more. They orbit each other in an endless loop of almosts: almost reaching out, almost confessing, almost choosing love. It's a story about timing that never aligns and emotions that speak louder in silence than in speech. The angst runs deep here - not from betrayal or chaos, but from restraint. It's the heartbreak of wanting someone you can't have, or worse, someone you could have if only you were brave enough to try. Each chapter unravels their quiet devotion and the storm that brews beneath it - the jealousy, the fear of loss, the aching hope that maybe the other feels it too. The tension is constant, delicate, and suffocating in its beauty. As the story unfolds, A Quiet Love becomes a meditation on emotional vulnerability - the courage it takes to love softly in a world that glorifies the loud and the dramatic. It's a portrait of two people who find refuge in one another's presence, even when words fail them. And though their love is quiet, it is anything but small; it's consuming, raw, and real - the kind that leaves you haunted long after the final page.
The Quiet Between Us
It's a story about love that once felt like home - and how silence slowly took its place. Told from the eyes of someone who still loves her, The Quiet Between Us follows the painful journey of holding on, losing yourself, and learning what love means when words stop coming. It begins with five days of no contact - days filled with regret, hope, and aching memories of how things used to be. Through twenty long, honest chapters, the story unfolds the truth of what happens when love turns into exhaustion, when the person you love needs to rest from loving you, and when you have to decide whether to keep waiting or start healing. This isn't just a story of heartbreak - it's a story of change. Of learning how to love gently. Of realizing that sometimes, love doesn't end; it just grows differently. Tragic, soft, and painfully real - The Quiet Between Us is about two people who loved each other deeply, but forgot how to stay without breaking apart.Complete
Brutally yours
To the quiet girls with stormy hearts. To the boys who feel too much but show too little. To those who were never chosen first - but loved like they were the last. This story is for the unseen, the unheard, the untamed. For every soul who thought they were "too soft" for this world - and found someone who didn't just see their softness, but protected it with fire. For anyone who still believes that love isn't always gentle - but when it's real, it is brutally honest, brutally fierce, and brutally yours. And most of all - To the one who dreams loud in silence: This is your story. You just haven't lived it yet.Complete

You Talk Too Much
Nicolas didn't want friends. Didn't want attention. Definitely didn't want her. But then Lina sat next to him. Every. Single. Day. She talked through the awkward silences, laughed at her own jokes, and asked questions he never answered. She was chaos in sneakers and bubblegum lip gloss - and he wanted nothing to do with her. ...Until he did. Because somehow, her noise started drowning out the thoughts he didn't know how to escape. And her voice became the only thing that made the silence bearable. This isn't a love story. Not at first. This is a story about a boy who lost his spark... And the girl who wouldn't let him disappear quietly. ✅ Nicolas ✅ Lina ✅ "You Talk Too Much" ✅ High school setting ✅ Healing + chaos + slow-burn (Btw I forgot to add that there will be no smut of any kind in this story. Maybe an innocent kiss or something but nothing else)
In Between Us
We're not together. But we're not just friends either. Late-night messages. Almost-kisses. Unspoken feelings hidden behind casual conversations and coffee shop meetups. They never defined what they were-because definitions meant boundaries, and boundaries meant limitations. So they kept it simple. No labels. No promises. Just a connection that felt too real to be nothing... and too fragile to be something. But when emotions get too loud to ignore, and hearts begin to want more-what happens in between us can either bring them closer, or tear them apart. A modern love story about almost, uncertainties, and the kind of heartbreak you can't name.Complete
Love Me Like We Used To
They were inseparable - until they weren't. Now, they barely speak. Eighteen-year-old Amaria and Elias were childhood best friends. Late-night calls, secret handshakes, inside jokes - they knew each other better than anyone else. That is, until something happened in Year 13 that tore them apart. Whispers. Betrayal. Silence. Amaria is stepping into her first year of university-Year 14-with high hopes, a fresh start, and her best friend Zara by her side. She's ready to focus on her degree, leave the drama of secondary school behind, and grow into herself. But the past isn't done with her yet. Elias, the boy she ghosted after an emotional confession at the end of Year 13, is not only attending the same university-but he's in the same seminar group. What starts as stolen glances and awkward silences quickly reignites into tension, confusion, and the kind of chemistry that never really disappeared. Elias's older brother, Noah, is also on campus-more grounded and protective, offering occasional advice and support, especially when things between Elias and Amaria get messy. As Amaria balances her coursework, complicated emotions, and the realities of adulting, she's forced to reckon with the pain she left behind-and decide whether she's brave enough to stop running from it. Amaria's still guarded, still bruised by everything he didn't say back then. Elias? He acts like nothing happened, but there's guilt hiding behind his easy smile and that same look in his eyes whenever he's near her.
Until the Stars Knew Us
Some love stories begin with a spark. Theirs began with silence, distance, and the invisible pull of fate. Nova never believed in fairytales - until she met Hunter, the boy who felt like he had stepped straight out of one. With him, every moment was softer, every word heavier, every touch unforgettable. He wasn't just a dream; he was the answer to prayers she never dared to say out loud. But love like this isn't simple. It's fragile, tested by time, by fear, by the world outside their own. And yet, no matter how far they drifted, something always pulled them back - as if the universe itself refused to let go of what was meant to be. Because some bonds are unbreakable. Some hearts are stitched together long before they meet. And some stories... wait for the stars to finally recognize them. This is their story - of love, of longing, of a forever that was written long before they knew it themselves.
