„Some people walk into your life. Others take the same train."
Kiara's mornings were always the same - quiet coffee, soft music, and the steady rhythm of the 7:42 train to work.
She liked routine. She liked control.
Until he sat across from her.
Theo- mysterious, charming, with that smile that feels like trouble wrapped in warmth.
A spilled coffee turns into small talk. Small talk turns into lingering glances.
And before Kiara can stop it, the stranger from the train starts becoming the one person she can't stop thinking about.
But the closer they get, the more she starts to wonder -
Was it really just coincidence that he keeps showing up on her route?
Or are some connections simply meant to happen?
✨ A soft, slow-burn romance about two strangers, one train, and the kind of love that finds you when you're not looking. ✨

Love Her For Both of Us // CaitVi // Arcane // wlw
Vi wasn't looking for anything. Her late night café shifts were quiet and predictable. The same faces. The same city lights. Then Evelyn started showing up. She never said much. Never touched her coffee. Always stared at the skyline like it meant something only she could see. Vi tried not to notice, but Evelyn lingered in her thoughts. She was calm, distant, but not cold. Familiar in a way that didn't make sense. Vi told herself it didn't matter. But she found herself waiting for the quiet footsteps at closing time. For the silence between them. For the questions she wasn't ready to ask. She didn't know it yet, but Evelyn was only the beginning. There was someone else waiting. Someone she could be with. Someone who could love her back.

Love in the Least Likely Place
Luna Mireille never expected her life to change. Not in a city where every day felt the same. Not in a house barely big enough for two. Luna's used to hiding-her feelings, her dreams, her voice. Until Ha-Joon arrives. He's from Seoul. He's got too many walls and too many invisible chains. He's also the first person to see Luna, and she's the first person he's ever fallen in love with. They both were the type to stay hidden, until they found each other-where hiding doesn't feel so easy anymore. But falling in love was never part of the plan. Not when Ha-Joon's mother was so full of other intentions. Not when his future title threatens to destroy him and Luna's fragile peace. And definitely not when love-true love-starts asking both of them to choose between comfort and courage. This is a story about healing, rebellion, and the kind of love that doesn't knock first. It breaks in.Complete
