The Tangled Tales
Introduction
Riva, a simple middle-class girl with big dreams and a pure heart, believed that love was the most beautiful feeling in the world. When Vivaan entered her life, charming and confident, she slowly began to trust him and eventually fell deeply in love.
For Riva, Vivaan was everything — her happiness, her hope, her future.
But fate had a cruel twist waiting for her.
One day, Riva discovers a heartbreaking truth: Vivaan never loved her the way she loved him. For him, it all began as a bet — a careless challenge made to prove he could make any girl fall for him.
Her world shatters.
The trust she gave him so easily turns into pain she never expected. But as Vivaan begins to see the depth of Riva’s love and the damage he has caused, guilt slowly replaces his arrogance.
Now the question remains..
Will Vivaan truly understand the Riva’s love before it’s too late?
Will Riva ever find the strength to forgive the boy who broke her heart?
Or will their love story end before it even started ??
Myra(FL friend)
Hi, I’m Myra!
If there’s fun, I’m there. If there’s drama, I’m definitely there 😄
"Life is too short to be serious all the time… someone has to make it fun."
Riva is my best friend—and honestly, she’s the calm to my chaos. She overthinks, I don’t think at all.
But I get her....
Riva Sharma (FL)
I’m Riva.
Simple. Quiet. Focused.
I don’t like attention, and I definitely don’t like people interfering in my life. I believe in one thing—standing on my own feet.
I’ve learned early that if you depend on someone, you get hurt. So I don’t.
People think I’m rude. I’m not.
I just don’t waste words where they’re not needed.
If I let you into my life…
it means you matter.
And I don’t let people matter easily.
"I don’t believe in love. Not because I hate it… but because I’ve never seen it work."
Vivaan Malhotra (ML)
"I always win. That’s how it’s been… until she came."
I’m Vivaan.
Confident. Smart. And yeah… I know how to get what I want.
Life’s been simple for me—fun, friends, challenges. I don’t take things too seriously. Especially not relationships.
Riva? She was just a challenge at first.
A bet.
But she didn’t react the way others do.
No interest. No attraction. Nothing.
And somehow… that got to me.
Now I don’t know what this is anymore.
A game?
Or something I don’t know how to handle?
Manthan ( ML friend)
I’m Manthan.
I don’t talk much. I don’t interfere.
I just… observe.
People think I’m calm. Maybe I am.
Or maybe I just don’t show what’s going on inside.
When Vivaan told me about the bet, I didn’t like it.
Not because it’s wrong—
but because I knew the girl he chose.
Riva.
She’s not someone you play with.
She’s different. She is real. Real people don’t deserve to be part of someone’s entertainment. Her Bestfriend Myra completely opposite of her.Someone who doesn’t stay quiet for even a minute,
who laughs without thinking,
and somehow makes everything less serious.She’s the kind of chaos I don’t mind.
She doesn’t know it.
And I don’t plan to tell her.
Because some feelings…
are better kept where they don’t change anything.
