We Can Be Mended Novels & Stories

how delusional we were. The pain we both felt brought us closer and we thought that together, we can fix each other. But how can you fix someone before you can even fix yourself? Our broken edges fit together, but how can they ever get rid of the cracks that formed after the impact? We were fools to believe that we can come out from the other end just like that. Time slowly and ever so painfully showed us, that when the storm ends, the sun doesn't immediately shows up. When the rain stops, you don't carelessly go and run outside unless you have no fear of slipping and falling.

For the first time in a long while, I felt like maybe—just maybe—we weren’t completely broken. And I wasn’t about to waste the chance to make things right.

We need to focus on healing and repairing what we currently have. Hopefully, Kaia won’t hold it against us when she returns to us one day.

“Can we rebuild this, Caden? Can we fix what’s been broken between us?” He moved closer, careful not to overwhelm her. “I don’t know,” he admitted, his voice breaking slightly. “But I want to. Every day, I want to prove to you that we can start over. That we can *be* what we were meant to be… as a family.”

Now our relationship is getting a second chance and I intend to make the most of it. We know what didn't work, where we went wrong and what we should change, so this is the time to correct what was wrong and resume our relationship in a way that strengthens it. I know we will be able to, because we love each other and love each other well, so all we can do is enjoy this fresh start and fight for our love!

"Let's find a way to move forward, to rebuild the trust that was broken. Together." And in that embrace, under the fading sunlight, I knew that we were embarking on a new chapter, one that held the promise of healing and rediscovering the love that had endured. It wouldn't be easy, but we were determined to face the challenges together, to emerge stronger than ever before.

“You realize this means an entire day of listening to Kael complain.” “I do not complain,” Kael argued immediately. Riven raised a brow. “You absolutely do.” That made me laugh quietly. A real laugh. One I hadn’t heard from myself in a while. And strangely enough, hearing it inside this room, surrounded by them, made something settle warmly inside my chest. Maybe rebuilding didn’t just mean fixing walls and wards. Maybe it also meant fixing people. Fixing trust. Fixing life. And for the first time since everything fell apart… It actually felt possible.

When things got broken, we fix it, when a torn paper we buy a new one, when it already cannot be used, we replace it, we can all do something for everything, all our mess can always do something about it, but in reality, in people's lives, not all broken can be repaired over a night, especially if it is a broken soul...a damage heart and mind.

Not finding a word to say at the moment. “There are some things that can't be amended, like a broken glass or plate can’t be fixed, a shredded piece of paper can’t be fixed except by being torn off slightly, a worn out clothes can’t return to their old sparkling color, and lastly, a broken heart that’s filled with anger and hatred can never be clouded with love and concern. You failed your sister Emilia, so it will take you a while to be on her good terms again,” Beta Lucky said before walking past her. Heading up to his room. What he just said was the pure truth. Not everything can be fixed or repaired, especially when it involves the heart.

He spotted the thin, red line on Axel’s palm. He carried Axel to the kitchen, sitting him on the counter as he fetched a first-aid kit. As he cleaned the small cut with a tenderness that made Mandy’s chest ache, he spoke softly. "Listen, champ. Next time something breaks, you leave it. Don’t try to fix broken things. Not everything can be fixed." He smoothed a band-aid over the cut. "No matter how hard you try, once something is shattered… it can never really be put back the way it was. Understand?" Axel, wide-eyed, nodded solemnly. "Hmm."
