compared to a star, we are like mayflies - fleeting, ephemeral creatures who live out their lives in the course of a single day.

Featured by AmbassadorIN Being someone's first love may be great, but to be their last is beyond perfect I loved him since college. We got married and lived a peaceful life in each other's shadow. Our life was perfect until... He fell for her. The perfect woman in his eyes. And abandoned me. He broke me. I stood by him. He hurt me. I stifled my cries. He replaced me. I stood in their shadows watching them fall more for each other. He loathed me as I was the other woman... The Unwanted RoseComplete

As complicated as time itself, like the silent conversations with the moon and sun, lie the complexity of the screaming but silent thoughts of the stars. "All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream." -Edgar Allen PoeComplete
THE WISH OF HER
She rubbed her cheeks bashfully and asked, "Is there something on my face?" I leaned a little closer and whispered softly, "Yes... there was something. I was just looking at the beautiful creation of God... wondering why I can never get enough of it." ________________________________ Then he slowly leaned closer, his warm breath brushing near my ear. "Most people set their passwords as the name of their favorite person... or someone close to their heart." My pulse skipped instantly. "That means I'm close to your heart... right, Manisha?" My throat went dry. "Nothing like that," I said quickly. "I... I just kept it randomly." ________________________________ Manisha whispered, "You are my star, Ajay... the one who brings light when darkness surrounds me." Ajay whispered , "And you are my night sky, Manisha... the one who holds my star steady and teaches it how to shine without burning." ________________________________ Manisha -An overthinker with a gentle heart. Calm, quiet, and shy. She finds peace in music, speaks more through melodies than words, and feels deeply even when she says little. Silence is her comfort, and softness is her strength. Ajay Kumar -Bold and strong, sharp-minded and intelligent. His confidence commands space, but his anger often storms within him. He faces the world head-on, protecting fiercely, feeling intensely, sometimes burning too bright. ♡(> ਊ <)♡ Jump into a tale of love where loyalty speaks louder than words, and hearts choose each other every time. ☄️Night sky & star☄️ ♡(˃͈ દ ˂͈ ༶ )Complete

What started as an innocent lie, trapped them into a marriage, entwining their fates with unexpected partners. But here's the catch, the marriage won't last forever, the holy bond wasn't so holy, a contractual bond emerged, benefitted them both and bound them together, at least for a while. Falling in love was thrown out of the window the moment she signed the contract, she wasn't going to fall in love with an egoistic, arrogant and self-centred-asshole of a lawyer anyways. ••• "No love drama, right?" "I'd rather die."Complete
