(VA Series Book 1) When We Almost Us

WHEN WE ALMOST US

Some people come into our lives and leave without us realizing how much they meant to us.

For Solara, it was Xaillex.

Nine years ago, they were just two students who happened to walk home together.

A simple friendship.

A few shared smiles.

Homemade sandwiches.

Long walks.

And feelings that Solara was too young to understand.

She thought those moments would last forever.

But they didn't.

Years passed, and Solara eventually learned how to live without him. She found someone else, built a new life, and convinced herself that the past was nothing more than a distant memory.

Until one night...

She saw Xaillex again.

The boy she once waited for after class was no longer the same.

And neither was she.

But some feelings don't disappear just because time passes.

Sometimes, the person you almost had is the person you never truly stopped loving.

And sometimes...

The hardest question isn't "Do you still love me?"

It's...

"What if we had chosen each other?"
