Welcome :)

Hey there, beautiful souls.

I’m Pallavi, and this story you’re about to read? It’s a piece of my heart — raw, nostalgic, and aching in all the right places. A story that’s lived inside me far longer than I can remember. A name that never left my thoughts. A feeling that never asked for permission before creeping into the silence of the night.

"Some names stay — not on paper, but in the pauses between heartbeats."

The Name I Never Forgot is not just a story of two people. It’s a story of time, distance, memories, and the way life sometimes leads us away from what we once believed was ours. It’s the bittersweet ache of growing up, the silent pull of a name whispered under your breath, and the unexpected way destiny can bring two forgotten souls back into each other’s orbit.

They weren’t lovers. Not yet.

They were childhood best friends — the kind that shared secrets behind walls, fought over silly things, and laughed without knowing they were creating the moments they'd later ache for.

Shaurya and Shreya.

Two hearts, two dreams, and one lane that connected their houses… and maybe their souls.

But life had different plans. Time didn’t pause when they did. New schools, shifting cities, lost phone numbers — and the kind of silence that doesn’t hurt at first… until one day, it does.

They grew.

She became strong, focused, with a smile that never gave away the cracks inside.

He became thoughtful, reserved, with eyes that searched every crowd for something — or someone — he couldn’t name.

Years passed. Faces changed. Priorities shifted.

But some names… they don’t go away. They sit in the corner of your heart, dusty but not forgotten. Waiting for the day they’ll be spoken again.

This story begins not with a meeting — but with the longing before it.

When Shaurya and Shreya find themselves in the same city again, it’s not fireworks. It’s slow recognition. A shadow of a memory. A flicker in a crowded café.

Because fate doesn’t scream. It whispers. And this story? It whispers through every almost, every missed moment, every “what if” they never dared to ask.

They’ve changed.

They have careers now. Responsibilities. People they might not love, but are expected to choose. They’re no longer just those kids who sat on rooftops dreaming of the stars.

They’re strangers…

With a history.

And sometimes, the most heartbreaking thing about love is that it doesn’t go away even when you pretend it has.

So before you step into Chapter One, just breathe in this feeling. Let your heart wander back to that one person who never really left.

Because this isn’t just a love story.

It’s The Name We Never Forgot.

...With love,...

...Pallavi...
