Love is supposed to be a beautiful thing—something that fills your heart with warmth, with hope, with the promise of forever. But what happens when love is just beyond your grasp, when it lingers in the spaces between what is and what could have been?

This is the story of Y/N, a person caught in the bittersweet reality of loving someone they can never have. It's not because of fate, not because of circumstances beyond control, but simply because life is sometimes cruel in its clarity—showing you a love so deep, yet so unattainable.

A Love That Should Have Been

From the very first meeting, Y/N felt something stir inside them. He was everything they had never dared to dream of—kind, understanding, and effortlessly charming. There was no grand, cinematic moment of realization. Love crept in slowly, softly, like the whisper of autumn leaves falling. At first, it was just admiration, then companionship, then something deeper, something unspoken.

Y/N knew from the start that this love was impossible. He was always meant to be someone else’s, even before they had met. Maybe in another life, in another time, things would have been different. But here, in this cruel present, Y/N had to learn to exist in the shadows of their own heart, cherishing stolen moments that were never really theirs to begin with.

Sometimes, when they sat under the night sky, they found comfort in the stars. One in particular always caught their eye—bright, steady, yet distant. “That one,” he had once said with a soft smile, “is special.”

“Which one?”

“Suhail.”

They never spoke about it again, but somehow, that name lingered, just like their love—unspoken, yet ever-present.

A Love That Can Never Be

There was no tragedy, no dramatic confession, no grand rejection. Instead, there was only silence—an understanding that this love could never take root in the open. It was destined to remain in quiet moments, in lingering glances, in words left unsaid.

They shared memories that would never be acknowledged, laughter that was never meant to mean anything more. Y/N learned to love in silence, to be happy for him even when it hurt. They smiled through the pain, through the knowledge that they would always be second to fate’s cruel choices.

And sometimes, when the world grew too heavy, they would whisper his name to the wind, just once. Suhail.

A Love That Leaves an Imprint

Some loves are fleeting, some are written in the stars, and some remain as ghosts—haunting, lingering, forever a part of you. Y/N knew they would never truly move on, not in the way people expected them to. They would love again, perhaps even find happiness, but this love—the one that was never theirs—would always stay.

They wouldn’t regret it. No, love was never a mistake, even when it was painful. Even when it could never be.

A Love, Just Out of Reach

This is a story of quiet longing, of a love that was both beautiful and heartbreaking. It’s a tale of learning to live with the ache, of finding closure in the absence of an ending.

Because sometimes, the most profound love stories are the ones that never truly begin.

There are certain people who step into our lives like whispers—soft, fleeting, and impossible to hold onto. We never expect them, never plan for them, and yet, they leave traces of themselves in the quietest corners of our hearts.

That’s how he came into my life.

An Encounter That Wasn’t Meant to Last

The city was drowning in twilight, the streets humming with the sounds of life. Neon signs flickered against the wet pavement, and the scent of freshly brewed coffee mixed with the distant chill of approaching rain. It was the kind of evening where everything felt suspended in time—where the world kept moving, yet I felt stuck in place.

And then, I saw him.

He was standing at the farthest corner of the bookstore, fingers lightly grazing the spine of a book as if searching for something he had lost long ago. He wasn’t reading, not really—just staring at the pages like they held an answer he wasn’t sure he wanted to find.

Something about him felt familiar, though I was certain we had never met before.

I don’t know why I watched him for as long as I did. Maybe it was the quiet way he existed, like he was both part of this world and completely separate from it. Maybe it was the loneliness I thought I saw in his eyes.

Whatever it was, it made me step closer.

“You’re not reading,” I said before I could stop myself.

He looked up, and for a second, I forgot how to breathe.

His gaze wasn’t piercing or sharp—it was calm, steady, like the ocean at midnight. There was something unreadable in the way he looked at me, like he already knew the ending to a story I hadn’t even started writing.

“You noticed?” His voice was quiet, edged with something like amusement.

I shrugged, suddenly unsure why I had spoken in the first place. “It’s hard not to.”

A small smile tugged at his lips, but it didn’t quite reach his eyes. He glanced down at the book in his hands, tapping lightly on a passage before turning it toward me.

“It’s poetry,” he said. “About stars.”

I looked at the worn pages, at the faded ink and the words that had been read a hundred times over. One line stood out among the rest.

‘Some stars were never meant to be seen, only remembered.’

I swallowed the strange ache that rose in my throat.

“That’s kind of sad,” I murmured.

“Most truths are.”

The way he said it made something in my chest tighten.

I didn’t ask for his name, and he didn’t ask for mine.

It felt like we both knew—this wasn’t the kind of meeting that would lead to something lasting. We were just two passing moments, two people who weren’t meant to stay.

And yet, I still wanted to know him.

A Name No One Knows

The rain had started by the time we left the bookstore, light droplets tapping against the pavement like a quiet melody. We walked side by side without really meaning to, our footsteps falling into rhythm as if we had done this a thousand times before.

“I read somewhere that every star has a name,” he said suddenly. “Even the ones we can’t see.”

I glanced at him. “Do you have a favorite?”

He hesitated, then looked up at the sky as if searching for something.

“Suhail.”

The name was soft, almost like a secret.

I didn’t know why, but it felt important—like something I wasn’t meant to hold onto but wanted to anyway.

“Suhail,” I repeated, testing the way it felt on my tongue.

He nodded, but he didn’t say anything else.

And somehow, I knew.

That wasn’t his real name.

But it was the only one he was willing to give me.

And so, without meaning to, I let it become something more.

A name I would never forget.

A name I could never call my own.

A name that would stay with me long after he was gone.

The Beginning of an End

Some people enter our lives as a question we will never find the answer to.

I didn’t know it then, but he was never meant to stay.

And yet, in that moment, under the glow of the city lights and the soft drizzle of rain, I let myself believe in the impossible—

That maybe, just maybe, this was the start of something that wouldn’t have to end.

I was wrong.
