Unspoken Hearts — A Love Never Meant to Be

By Jamverse Stories | A poetic journey of young love and silence
Chapter 1: The First Bell
It was the first day of seventh grade. A mist clung to the ground, and the sky hung heavy, like a painting someone forgot to finish. Aarav stepped through the gates—uniform crisp, heart unsteady.
A gust of wind swept a page from a girl's notebook to his feet. Meera. Two braids, calm eyes, and a quiet smile.
Their eyes met. Something clicked. Quietly. Permanently.
Chapter 2: A Tiffin Box and a Smile
Two weeks later, Meera forgot her lunch. Aarav noticed. He slid his tiffin toward her, avoiding eye contact.
"Want some?" he asked. She smiled and accepted.
From that day, they shared meals—not by promise, just by feeling.
Chapter 3: Rain and Secrets
The monsoon arrived hard. One afternoon, Meera stood soaked, without shelter. Aarav gave her his sweater.
That night, she wrote in her diary, "He gave me his warmth. And I didn’t even ask."
She returned it the next day with a note:
"Thanks for the warmth. Stay dry next time."
Chapter 4: Notes That Never Got Delivered
Aarav wrote a letter. Just three lines. He never gave it.
Meera typed a message—then deleted it.
Some feelings stay folded in drawers, unsent but unforgettable.
Chapter 5: The Diwali Fair
During the school fair, their hands touched while exchanging change. Everything else blurred.
That night, Meera wrote: "If only he’d hold my hand—and not let go."
Chapter 6: A Birthday Missed
Aarav didn’t wish her. But that night, she received "The Little Prince"—her favorite.
The note inside read:
"You deserve a birthday that feels like stardust."
No name. But she knew.
Chapter 7: Last Day of School
On farewell day, Aarav handed her a sketchbook—filled with drawings of her.
"Why didn’t you ever tell me?" she asked.
"Same reason you didn’t," he said.
Chapter 8: Different Directions
He went north. She went south. They texted. Then didn’t.
Sometimes, love doesn’t vanish. It just… waits.
Chapter 9: Ghosts in the Library
Years later, Meera found a note in a library book:
"If you ever read this, I still remember the rain. — A."
Her smile trembled. Some ghosts aren’t scary—they’re memories.
Chapter 10: Some Stories Stay Unfinished
They never met again. No grand ending. No reunion.
Just two people who once loved in silence.
Unspoken hearts. A love never meant to be.
