Ml(male lead) pov:I was looking at her crying. She looked at me and said that we should end this relationship. I was shocked to hear those words. It was just yesterday when we promised to stay forever. Why would she want to end this relationship? Maybe her parents don't want us to be together....well it's understandable they never liked me. I gathered some courage and asked her "why...why do you want this to end...?" I was trying not to show the tears in my eyes but god i could not control them. i tried to look away so that she would not see them.

She was trying to tell me something but her voice kept breaking down. I understand how much pain she was in, so i just hugged her and said "I don't know what's going on but it will be okay don't worry we will try to solve them so don't leave me" "Please i don't know how I will live without you"

I was more heartbroken when i heard her reply she said "No we can't solve this" she paused for some seconds and added "it may be hard at first but you will get used to it cuz you had been living for more than 20 years without me"

She smiled at me for the last time. The most cheerful person i have ever seen was crying. i couldn't bear to see that. So i again thought to myself that maybe 'us' being together will bring her more pain and i lied to her for the last time.

...----------------...

It's been 7 years since that day.

...----------------...

I have already moved on from her. Now i have a lovely daughter and a beautiful wife. Sometimes I think to myself that maybe the decision we made that day was right. Haa Maybe if we hadn't broken up that day we would both be suffocating forever. I sometimes wonder if she is doing well or not..not because i still love her but because she was one of the very first people who showed me the meaning of love.

I am really grateful to her for that.

...----------------...

Fl(female lead) pov: I have just returned from my parents house. I have been thinking about what they said to me earlier for a long time. Haa I guess it was quite true. me and my boyfriend have been together for more than 3 years now. We both love each other. At some time it felt like i was not able to feel it I'm not saying that i didn't feel his love but i couldn't feel us. We both compromise about something we hardly have deep conversations about. I guess it's better to end this relationship in which we could feel the 'we and us'.

I finally got home. He was sitting on the sofa waiting for me. As soon as I came he jumped out of the sofa and hugged me, but i somehow couldn't hug him back several times now.

I ... I want to break-up with you.. these are the words i have been practicing on my way home. So i finally gathered courage and said that he looked shocked of course because we promised to grow old together yesterday. He was trying hard to suppress his tears but it kept falling i also did know when i started crying but he was trying to dry my tears.

He asked me why I wanted to end this relationship....I have no idea what to say to him...

I was trying to say something but my voice kept breaking down. He was crying i didn't know that I could be heartless."I don't know what's going on but it will be okay don't worry we will try to solve them so don't leave me" "Please i don't know how I will live without you"he said to me with a weak smile and his tears fell non-stop. I wanted to tell i also couldn't live without him but i knew i should let him go now.

"no we cant solve this" i paused for some time and said something which will break his heart "it maybe hard at first but you will get used to it cuz you you had been living for more than 20 years without me" i couldn't believe that i have said some thing like that

Maybe after sometime he also thought that it was the right thing to end it cuz i don't want it anymore. So he said it was fine if I wanted to stop here He wouldn't force me to stay with him.

...----------------...

It has been seven years huh..i thought to myself. Suddenly my boyfriend got some from behind and hugged me. "What are you thinking" he asked me, i smiled and said "nothing". I guess we are again in the phase of strangers again.

...****************...

The story of a stranger with memories.

Fl pov: I was on the journey to find myself. But insert i found you. You were one of the most important people in my life. We are not lovers but we always act like we are. You are one of the popular students in both school and college. I have loved you since the school days. I was always lonely in my school. He was the first one to talk to me. We never had the sweet type of friendship.

We would always fight in everything...but who could have thought that one day i would fall for him..my best friend.

It's totally normal like he always invites me to all of his gatherings even if it's only the boys he always manages to take me with him....just don't ask how.

Nowadays he has been asking me stuff like how to woo a girl?What do girls like about boys most? and many more. I guess he is in love now. It hurts giving him advice in those things but i can't just say i don't want to help him cuz i like him..you know i am a coward. Haa wish i will be able to see her, the girl he is trying so hard to make her fall for him.

It hurts but still they will be happy. I guess i was wrong the day he was supposed to purpose her he was very nervous and wanted to try proposing a few times and as his only female friends he brought me with him. He didn't tell me anything just grab me and say to follow him. My brain was still processing what was happening.

He suddenly PROPOSED me. I was like "wot? Are you fine?" i didn't mean to say it loud but damn my mouth. Yes i did say it out loud. And it sounds and if i hated him. Dig me a hole i will bury myself there.After some time my brain could finally understand what's happening. I thought that it was like that drama .

Where the ml asks the fl for some advice to woo a girl. The f gives some advice to him but he actually he was trying to woo the same girl.

Sadly my life wasn't like those dramas and a fl huh. He then got up from his knee and said "Do you think she will accept me if i purpose her like this" it felt like thousands of arrows have hit me... "maybe" i said trying to keep my cool.

He then left. My tears just keep coming nonstop i felt numb. I squatted, hugged my knee and began to cry. I know that i couldn't see him woth other girls...i..i have loved him for 5 years..why can't he love me too..maybe because I'm not girly like other girls..maybe cuz i act like boy all the time...maybe cuz i don't like to dress like other girls..maybe cuz...i was trying to find why he didn't love me like i did.

I know I couldn't find it myself...i asked myself will i be able to see another girl while i act like i don't love him? I know the answer will be no, no matter when i ask it. I looked up and saw he hasn't gone much far.

......................

i stood up and shouted his name. He looked back with tears in his eyes. I wonder what happened to him. "I love you" i finally said it...he looked shocked...then he wiped his tears and came running to me and hugged me tight i also hugged him. Then he worshiped in my ear"i love you too"

i guess we all are the fl and ml of our own story

......................

I stood up and shouted his name. He looked back.. "I love you" i finally said it..he smiled at me and said sorry but love her...you will always live in my heart"

i guess all fl and ml are meant to be sad once a while

...----------------...

Ahemm..incase you are confused about what just happened here

so i was gonna make it the second version but i don't want my readers to be sad so i did both...umm should i make another version of the ch-1 to where they end up together..?🤔🤔

I looked into his eyes as he looked into mine. We were both lost in each other's eyes, then sowly he came closer and pulled me by my wrist toward him and kissed my lips i also kissed him back "mmm"...i could not be more happy than this then his hand slowly

Suddenly the screen is locked and the poor mobile is flying."AHHHH they kisseddd" "oh my god i can die peacefully now WAIT no cant just die now i gotta see the face of my grandchild".Yes this is me I'm the same like you simping over the  frictional characters 😎. I have always wanted to find the 'soulmate' thing like in those novels and books, but i never found it. I just don't believe that it exists.

People think that everyone's soulmate exists but i don't. Maybe it is because i have grown in a 'home' where parents always fight no it wasn't arranged marriage but love marrige....everyone who saw them thought that they are meant to be.But nobody knows how much they dont match like i do.

Anyway, back to meeee hehe. I did find one person who matched my vibes but I don't know how to say that. We have been friends for more than 15 years now. Yess he is my childhood friend. i first met hi when i was 7 years old. He was really annoying. I kinda hated him at the beginning. Love hate relationships you know. I dont know when i fall for him but you know i did..

I finally wanted to tell him it was either our love story or the friendship which is gonna end .So i planned everything and called him. He was finallyy there after 30 mins.

I took a deep breath, closed my eyes and said "I Love You" i did it. I slowly opened my eyes andddddd guess what..?

He just walked out.....?

He called me after a few days. I very quickly walked out of my room and went to get something cold to remove my puuf eyes. I then ran out as fast as I could and when i finally reached my tears kept on falling...He then told me that"This is the reason why i walked out that day"

After 5 years

I already have a daughter and a son. i heard he is working in a famous company. My husband suddenly hugged me from behind. "I am tired" he said. I replied "then go to sleep". He kept sugging his head into my back. He is so damn clingy i would have never married him. "Hey do you remember when i propose you?" he asked....suddenly a flashback came in my mind

5 years ago

"This is the reason why i ran away that day"he said. My tears keep on falling....i couldn't imagine that the boy I liked was on his knee holding a ring for me all of our friends were there.I wiped my tears and"why did you walk away when you also liked me back?" i asked and he smiled and replied "because i thought that it was a man's duty to this first hehe"

Back To Present

"ofcource i do" i replied "what was on your mind when i proposed you?"he asked again. To which i replied"what you ARE a MAN i never heard that you are a man" "like who told you that that you are a man" i giggled after that. He started complaining about how he is a man and again his h0rny @ss thought something dirty, just like you did🤦‍♀️🤣

So this is the story of two childhood sweethearts.
