Chapter 1 - Prologue

I had no intention of ever loving again.

Ever since I lost my wife and child... it felt like a part of my heart had died for good.

So I made a promise to myself—

I was done with love.

But sometimes...

no matter how hard you try to forget the past,

there are people who will always find their way back into your life.

People like Maya.

The woman who first made my heart skip a beat.

The woman I loved even without her knowing.

The woman I dreamed would be mine...

back then.

But she was never mine.

Until one day—

we met again.

By accident.

Everything had changed.

She's married now. She has a life of her own.

And me?

I shouldn't be feeling anything anymore.

But with just one look at her...

it all came back.

The feelings.

The dreams.

The obsession.

I approached her.

I told her I just wanted to be friends again.

And she agreed.

But the truth?

The day I saw her again...

I knew I was starting to fall all over again.

And now...

I don't care if she's already married.

If this is wrong—

so be it.

This time,

letting go and being swept away by whatever happens seems to be the only choice.

Even though it is clear...

there are some loves that should never be started.

Refining the wording to make it sound more like a book blurb or a movie monologue is possible if that would be helpful.
