روايات وقصص ضمن When Love Goes Silent

“Okay sis, I gotta go but I’ll talk to you soon. I love you.” “I love you too, Gage.” We hang up and I go straight to bed. I don’t bother changing my clothes. I wake up long enough the next two days to eat something and shower and change into a pair of sweat pants and a hoodie. On the third day, the day I leave, I call him one more time. “Hi, Jace, I promise this is the last time you’ll hear from me. I don’t want to ruin your happiness. I just wanted to let you know I’m going home today. I love you, forever. Bye.”

She tried to roll onto her side, her arms wrapped around herself, but Jozef held her in place, his frantic face swimming in and out of her vision. Suddenly the orchestra seemed louder. They were playing an instrumental version of 'The Sound of Silence'. Tears gathered in her eyes as she realized how perfect the song was. With Jozef she was surrounded by silence, and like the lyrics of the song, the silence had become an old friend. Without the constant chatter of voices, she could hear the beat of her own heart, see the expressions on her lover's face as they sat together speaking their silence.

"I just wanted to know you more—better if possible." He didn’t respond. He just looked at me with that same hard stare that told me he wasn’t ready. That the wall he’d built so carefully wasn’t coming down tonight. So I walked past him, brushing his arm as I went, not bothering to say another word. Because in that moment, I realized something painfully simple: Even when love was strong… silence could still destroy it. And just like that we went back to how things were two weeks ago—or maybe even worse.

“But if you want to stay… you don’t have to explain anything.” Evelyn looked down the empty street. No cars. Just rain. And the sound of a heart beating too loudly in the silence. She didn’t speak—but she didn’t let go of his arm either. And in that silence, William understood… Sometimes, love doesn’t need the word return. Sometimes, all it takes… is not letting go.

“Love isn’t about perfection. It’s about who shows up when it matters.” Darren’s throat bobbed. We didn’t speak again that night. We didn’t have to. Because sometimes, the loudest confessions are made in silence.

Our fingers weaved together tightly. When I tilted my head up to kiss him, he also lowered his head and kissed me with absolute gentleness. "Spencer, I think it doesn't hurt anymore…" "Then… Do you want to continue?" Noises that would make anyone blush started up again in the room, and it carried on for a long time. The night would be long. But what was longer was the rest of our lives together. Even during the darkest times, love was still the most important thing. The End.

"Jan, if slapping me makes you feel better and forgive me, go ahead and hit me a few more times." "No need," I said coldly. "It was already disgusting enough to hit you once. If I hit you again, this hand might as well be gone." I took a wet wipe from my bag and began cleaning the hand I'd just used on him. Sean stared at me, pain flickering across his eyes. "Jan, do you really have to do this to me? I still love you," he said, his tone imploring. "If you divorce your husband, I will accept you and your child. I will raise the baby as my own."

But nothing came. Just silence. That cruel, heavy silence that eats at your heart until there’s nothing left but dread. I pressed my palms together and closed my eyes. I wasn’t someone who prayed often, but I did then. I begged God… begged whatever force was listening not to take him from me. Not like this. Not when I had finally realized how much I loved him. “Please,” I whispered into the empty room, my voice trembling. “Please don’t take him from me. Not now. Not when I haven’t even had the chance to love him the way I should have.”

Her gentleness, her quiet resilience, that's what he fell for without realizing it. But as he looked into her clear, detached eyes, he could not bring himself to say a word. Because it was clear. She no longer cared about love or heartbreak.

In that room, the union was not a fleeting blaze, but a silent affirmation of a partnership taking root, and of a love newly born—vast and enduring. “Silence settled over the scene, broken only by whispered words that set the air alight—stay here, you are mine, I am yours—murmurs so tender they were almost heard with the heart.”
