He entered her life when she was emotionally unavailable.
Lavanya was already chasing someone she thought she loved, while Akshat quietly became the person who stayed beside her through everything... her overthinking, her breakdowns, her smiles, and her silence.
Their story wasn't about love at first sight.
It was about small moments.
Late-night conversations.
Unexpected comfort.
Playful arguments.
Coffee dates that didn't feel like dates.
And feelings that slowly became impossible to ignore.
The more time she spent with him, the more confused her heart became. Because Akshat carried the warmth, care, and understanding she had always wished to find in someone else.
But moving on from a long-held crush was never easy.
Especially when the person from her past suddenly re-enters her life, forcing her to question her feelings, her choices, and the meaning of love itself.
Caught between memories and reality, Lavanya must decide whether to hold onto the love she once imagined... or accept the love that had been quietly standing beside her all along.

Prema Kahani
|| PREMA KAHANI || SIRISHA I like to think of myself as a patient person. I can tolerate a lot- annoying classmates, my mom's endless lectures, even the chaos that comes with having an older brother. But him? Aaryan Rajput is where my patience ends. It's where I draw the damn line. It's like he wakes up every morning and thinks, Hmm, how can I ruin Sirisha's day today? And somehow, he always succeeds. He's everywhere. At my house, in my way, in my head-ugh. It's infuriating. He flashes that stupid grin, says something smug, and suddenly, I'm ready to throw a dictionary at his head. But the worst part? No one else seems to see the problem. My parents adore him. My brother basically considers him family. My friends think he's charming. Me? I think he's the most irritating person on the planet. ...At least, that's what I tell myself. AARYAN I'd like to say she hates me, but I know better. She tolerates me- barely -but I'll take what I can get. It's funny, really. She walks around like she's unaffected, like I'm nothing more than an inconvenience. But I see the way her eyes flick to me when she thinks I'm not looking. I know she listens when I talk, even when she rolls her eyes. She thinks I wake up every morning just to drive her insane. Maybe I do. But only because it's the closest I can get to making her think about me. ______ I can't make it sound any better than that, but I promise it's worth a read 💗

The Gift of Faith
He started walking toward her, causing her to instinctively take a few steps back. Before she knew it, she was pressed between the car and her husband, with no way to escape. Her breathing deepened as he gently held her chin, lifting it so that she had no choice but to meet his eyes. "Aap mujhe avoid kar rahi hain?" His voice was calm, but the question felt more like a statement. Her throat tightened, her voice stuck. She could only shake her head in denial. (Are you avoiding me?) "Nahi?" he repeated, slightly raising an eyebrow, as if daring her to lie. (No?) "Aisi... aisi koi baat nahi hai," she stammered, quickly ducking her head down as he loosened his grip on her chin. (It's...It's nothing like that) ------ Aisha grew up finding solace in her faith, which shaped her values and dreams of building a loving, faith-filled home.

When their families proposed marriage, Omar agreed out of respect, viewing it as a formality rather than a heartfelt commitment. A year into their marriage, Aisha found herself yearning for a connection that Omar, still focused on his ambitions, seemed unable to give. Yet, hints of change began to emerge, offering hope for a journey that might bring them closer, rooted in love and faith.Complete
