<p>It had been two years since Mia left. Not in death. Not in drama. Just… left. She moved away without a goodbye, without a note. Just a voicemail: I got the job. I think it’s best if we leave things where they are.</p><p><br></p><p>And that was it.</p><p><br></p><p>But what were "things"? A half-finished sentence? A smile too long? A hundred late-night walks where their hands nearly touched but never quite did?</p><p><br></p><p>He’d loved her. Quietly. Stupidly. Desperately.</p><p><br></p><p>But he never told her.</p><p><br></p><p>He was always waiting for the perfect moment. One more laugh, one more look, one more night when maybe the words would fall out instead of freezing on his tongue.</p><p><br></p><p>He watched her fall in love with someone else once. And out of it. And still, he waited.</p><p><br></p><p>Now she was gone. A city away. A life away.</p><p><br></p><p>And here he was, writing letters he never sent.</p><p>Mia</p><p>I still remember the way you looked at rain like it was a story falling from the sky.</p><p>I still remember the way you said my name like it had a secret you weren’t ready to share.</p><p>If I could go back to that night—where you asked me if I ever thought about “us”—I wouldn’t just laugh and change the subject.</p><p>I would say yes.</p><p>Yes, every damn day.</p><p><br></p><p>He folded the letter and tucked it into his coat pocket. It was the fifteenth one. None had stamps. None had endings.</p><p><br></p><p>A little girl ran by, chasing a kite, and Evan watched the wind carry it higher than she could reach. She let go. It drifted away, silently, without protest.</p><p><br></p><p>Some things never fall. They just float out of your life.</p><p><br></p><p>He looked up at the sky. Then down at the bench.</p><p><br></p><p>And whispered into the empty space beside him,</p><p>I loved you. That’s all I ever needed to say.</p><p><br></p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
