ONC2026 Entry.

Sidharth is Parvathy's safe place. He's her best friend, her winter comfort, and the one person who makes Canada feel like home. But he's also off-limits, dating someone else and firmly placed in the "friend zone" to protect her heart.

When her mother introduces her to Jithin, a stable, kind potential groom, Parvathy agrees to give him a chance. It's what her family wants. And maybe, just maybe, it will finally help her move on.

But dating Jithin doesn't erase her feelings for Sidharth. And when Sidharth's relationship starts to fall apart, the careful boundaries of their friendship begin to blur. Caught between keeping everyone happy and following her heart, Parvathy has to decide:

Will she stay safe in the life others chose for her? Or risk everything for the love she's been hiding all along?

Those Five Nights of December by pepper16__

TFNOD (Part I - The Day Night Series) Eesha Mehta is a hardworking, budding architect who never experienced true happiness in life. When her paths crossed with those of her flamboyant boss, she hardly noticed, chaos prevailed. Reyan Irani is a man with wings, forever ready to take a flight to party clubs and to the top of his well designed buildings. An architect by profession, the CEO of his architectural firm Warehouse, finds himself tangled with her employee when he finally begins to notice her. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ "Weren't you the nerd type?" He said and I hate that word. Everyone, during my high school days, has always teased me with this word. I am not one but Reyan seemed unnerved by my eye roll. He chuckled "I always thought of you as a nerd, nerd without spectacles, no braces, and no social life." "You think about me?" I asked him, IN MY HEAD. Reyan bored his chocolate eyes into mine. And that smirk! That smirk never leaves his lips and for the first time, it did things to me I absolutely wasn't familiar with. He charmed me well enough to make me fall for him in just four meetings. Reyan surely has his own ways with me. "You live with stereotypes, I see." I hissed, words coming out barely a whisper as our proximity wasn't making me uncomfortable. And that is so uncomfortable. Isn't it? I could feel his eyes on me and it made me conscious. Do I look bad? I thought and looked down at myself. "Checking yourself out eh?" He asked with a laugh. "You look perfect!" Reyan complimented me. "He would be a jerk to let go of someone as simply gorgeous as you, if he does." He said to me, eye to eye, and began walking towards me. His eyes never left mine as I walked backwards in response to his movements. I eventually lost my balance due to constant back tracking. But I didn't fall because his warm and strong hands caught me by my bare waist, on time and I clung to his torso because who likes falling? Falling for this man, however, becam

The Wrong Number by the_awesome_twosome

HIGHEST: #6 IN HUMOR "Your command over sarcasm appalls me." "As does your ability to comprehend it." With a practically non-existent social life, extra study sessions at the best coaching institute in the city, a mind numbingly boring job and a best friend whose sole purpose seems to be getting her a boyfriend, Alankrita Sundar was content with the hand she'd been dealt. But when she receives a text from Ruhan Das, a boy whose very presence made her skin crawl, she realises that the bland oatmeal that is her life was in dire need of some spicing up. What began as a message sent to the wrong person soon turns into a twisted game of Guess Who, as Alankrita realizes faking an identity opens a lot of previously bolted doors- including one that leads to the darkest secrets of one of the most well-known students in school. The series of messages exchanged between Alankrita and Ruhan explore several aspects of each other's life, and through their shared experiences they realise that they aren't as different as they'd previously imagined.

TOO CHAOTIC TO FORGET by nutshelly_13

Too Chaotic to Forget is a heartwarming K-drama-style romance that begins with a hilarious rickshaw fight in the bustling streets of Kolkata. When Aishani, a fiery Bengali MBBS student, crosses paths with Aniruddh, a charming Punjabi aerospace student from IIT Kharagpur, sparks fly-but not the romantic kind. As rivalry turns into reluctant partnership at an inter-college fest, their hatred slowly melts into something undeniable. Set against the backdrop of cultural clashes, campus drama, and stolen glances, this enemies-to-lovers tale reminds us that sometimes, love begins with chaos. A perfect blend of laughter, tension, and emotional depth. Basically I am not an advanced writer if any wrong correct me I would like to improve again!
