Long Time No See Novels & Stories

After reading them all, I flipped the phone face-down on the table without typing a word back. I just watched Shawn from across the room. As if to prove a point, he tightened his grip, pulling Alyssa even closer against him. "Since you're the couple of the day, why don't you two give us a kiss?" someone suggested. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!" The crowd egged them on until they were pressed together. Alyssa was flush against his chest, a blush creeping up her cheeks. "Stop it, you guys… Shawn and I haven't seen each other in five years. We can't just start making out."

Six months. Sebastian was supposed to see Clara again in six months, according to the contract. But that was way too long for him to wait to see her again. He was getting antsy and frustrated. ‘How is this relationship ever going to start when she ices me out? I’ve been texting her almost every day, and all she gives me is her one-word answers. Ugh!’

"Tsk, look at you. Dressed in rags and carrying that filthy sack. The bank isn't a place for beggars! Don't even think about coming to me for service. You reek. I only deal with high-value clients." The sharp voice snapped me out of my thoughts. When I blinked, the first thing I saw was my best friend, Madison Doyle, pinching her nose with a look of utter disgust as she turned away. Outside the glass partition stood an older couple, their faces etched with worry. Despite the humiliation, they held onto their money bag tightly, refusing to leave.

I looked at the box in my hand. "You too." Olivia stepped into the elevator, and the doors slowly began to close. She kept looking at me. This time, she didn't cry. She didn't curse me or say, "Take one more step and see what happens." When the doors were almost shut, she simply lifted her hand and waved. I stayed where I was. Someone called from behind me, "Chris, come cut the cake!" "Coming!" My phone buzzed. A message from Olivia. "The 9:50 p.m. movie is about to start. I'm watching it alone this time."

Our department went on a team-building hike. When it was time to split into groups, I looked at Janet Wiley, the woman I had been secretly dating for two years, sure she would pick me. Instead, she walked over to Nash Fuller, her childhood friend who had just come back from overseas. "You're out of shape. Come with me. I'll make sure you don't fall behind." Nash gave her a crooked grin and rested a hand lightly on her arm. Our coworkers immediately started giving them a hard time. "Childhood sweethearts, huh? Ms. Wiley, you're still single, right? You two actually look pretty good together." Janet didn't move away. She just smiled faintly and said, "Yeah. I'm single." I went still

Miyaka Reyes has always been the wild girl—the fearless one who lives for speed, adventure, motorcycles, horses, and anything that makes her heart race. But before she became known for her courage, she was simply a girl who had two inseparable childhood best friends: Moises Laurent and Jason Rivera. Among the three, Moises was different. He was the boy who understood her, the one who stayed beside her when everyone else walked away. Somewhere between childhood laughter, secret promises, and afternoons beneath their favorite tree, Miyaka fell in love with him. But Moises never knew. Then, without warning, he disappeared. No goodbye. No explanation. Only one promise: “I’ll co

I'm happily digging into a hot dog by the roadside when, sure enough, I spot my girlfriend, Jennifer York, in Felix Kenner's latest post. The caption reads, "You make the best medicine." After being stood up by Jennifer so many times, I've long since stopped caring. If anything. I'm starting to think I should break up with her as soon as possible and let the two of them be together.

All because I ran one minute over in the bathroom, the company took away my $200,000 project bonus. My own boss criticized me in front of everyone, saying I was loafing on company time. Saying I had no respect for the new rule. So he docked my $200,000 project bonus to make an example of me. And in the same stroke, he wiped out my shot at the promotion entirely. I handed in my resignation on the spot. The next day, the CEO of the whole group came to me himself and begged me not to go.

Snow fell heavily that night, and he watched as the last light in the villa went out. In the end, he never caught a glimpse of me. … The snow fell for three days, and Luke and I lost ourselves in each other the entire time. At the same time, Nathan also stayed outside for three solid days. On the fourth day, the snow finally cleared. When Luke took me out for fresh air, Nathan stepped right in front of the car. His face was deathly pale, and even his voice trembled. "Willow, please come home with me." There was more emotion in his voice than I had ever heard, more so than when he found out that Lily was coming back.

But later, the same person did everything with another woman that he had done with me. As I withdrew my gaze and was about to continue walking into the school, Bleiz suddenly turned around and ran towards me. Without warning, without any expectation, two people who thought they would never meet again suddenly met like this. Time suddenly froze at that moment. The earthy smell of the rain-soaked soil disappeared, and the blurred voices of children playing on the distant playground disappeared. All that could be heard was the frantic beating of Bleiz’s heart and his rapid breathing. “Nancy.”
