Silently Falling (UNEDITED, ORIGINAL)
This is the UNEDITED, ORIGINAL version of Silently Falling. If you wish to find the edited version, please go to my profile and you will find it there :) The original was edited starting August 2020. - - - "Sunshine, what guy do you know has a weird fetish with sign language?" She's the aftermath of a high school party nightmare. Tragedy robbed her of her innocence and stole her voice before she had the chance to speak out. The court called her a liar, and the guilty was set free. Now memories plague her mind and trap her in solitude. She was forced to learn sign language, struggling to find a way to voice her silence. He's the definition of the boy she tried to stay away from. The epitome of harsh rumors and hopeless fantasies. The source of lies and blame. He's analyzed, misunderstood, and utterly mysterious. And he may be the one to find her voice. When they meet, she gets accustomed to his arrogance and he gets accustomed to her silence. An essay is what brings them together, but what happens when he starts asking too many questions? Will her past continue to drag her down, or will he save her? Fate has a funny way of bringing people together, but it doesn't always work how it's supposed to. - - - *different summary inside* COVER: EnsurelComplete
My Unexpected Weakness
"I loved, and adored him back then. But maybe, second chances aren't meant for everyone in the world." She is type of a girl who is a kind of oversized one but, brainy she can do both or must say multi task, a debater who is very articulate, a journalist to their school paper and known as a genius student but one day, he met again a person from his past without her realizing that it's him and became the one reason of the changes to her physical appearance and inner soul. Then an unexpected thing will happen that someone will fall in love with her that she met in the world of RPW, who had a familiar vibe. How will she handle it? Is the first guy still the same guy? Are they still one person? Or the other way around. Is there a chance that, maybe, the silent opponent of who? Is the literal soulmate of her, the guy whom she knew deeply who was already there before he met those other people? Or, her literal weakness is the guy who admired her since they were in their first years, in high school. What if the two of them are her weakness and it is unexpected. But the worst thing is another person, or more people will confuse her again about what she feels towards the guy that he truly loves. Years will come, thousands of people will meet and encounter each other, cashes will continue to burn out, those bright colors will fade, leaves will fall down by the help of the frail or burly wind, small plants will finally grow, time will fly quickly, and then maturity will hit them. All of us will grow old, but her true weakness will still remain who? From a puppy love, back in high school until she became the heiress, will still be who? Who will be her unexpected weakness?

Kavya Thakur never believed in fairytales, not until the quiet boy in her class finally confessed what he had been carrying for years. For a brief, fragile moment, life felt simple. Almost kind.

Just when Kavya believed she had learned how to survive loss, someone new entered her life and brought with them a betrayal she never saw coming. A betrayal that hurt deeper than love ever could. It changed her. Hardened her. Taught her how to guard her heart instead of offering it freely. Five years later, fate brings her face to face with her first love again. But Kavya is no longer the girl he remembers. She is guarded, bruised by the past, and certain that some things cannot be rebuilt. He refuses to believe that. As buried secrets resurface and old wounds reopen, they must confront the question they never truly answered the first time. Can love survive betrayal, silence, and the weight of everything left unsaid? Or were they always meant to become a memory rather than a future?Complete
