Brokenfamily Stories

Riley doesn't remember the last time someone asked if she was okay. Not really asked. Not in the way that meant they were going to stay for the answer. She is seventeen years old and she has already learned the most important lesson this town has to offer - that people leave. They leave with promises folded neatly in their pockets, with good intentions they fully mean at the time, with duffel bags and bus tickets and fifteen days that turn into three years without a single word. They leave, and the ones left behind learn to stop waiting by the window. They learn to stop setting an extra plate. They learn to breathe around the absence until the absence just becomes the air. Riley works the late shift. She carries drinks to tables without being asked twice. She doesn't flinch at loud voices anymore. She doesn't cry at things that used to make her cry. She has become very good at being invisible in a room full of people - and even better at being invisible to herself. This is not the life she imagined. But it is the life she has. And she has made her peace with it, quietly, the way you make peace with things you never had a choice about. She is not waiting for anyone anymore. She stopped doing that a long time ago. Until the night a familiar face walks through the door - and three brothers who left her behind must now face what their absence built. Because blood doesn't forget. And neither does Riley.

Broken Dreams, New Destiny In a world where love is never simple and fate never gentle, Kashvi Dikshit, an 17-year-old girl standing on the edge of adulthood, sees her entire life collapse in a single night when a tragic accident takes away her mother. With a 7-year-old brother in her arms and a cruel, alcoholic father waiting to exploit them, Kashvi is left with nothing but fear, responsibility, and shattered dreams of her future. At the hospital, destiny introduces her to Dr. Aryaveer Ranawat, a 29-year-old trauma surgeon known for saving lives-but emotionally distant and burdened by his own broken past. He brings Kashvi's mother to the hospital, unknowingly becoming part of a final wish that will change all their lives forever. In her last moments, Kashvi's mother makes an impossible request-to marry her daughter, not for love, but for protection. A promise meant to shield Kashvi and her young brother from a future of pain, control, and destruction. Bound by duty and a vow made in silence, Aryaveer accepts a responsibility he never chose, stepping into a marriage built not on romance, but on obligation. While he remains emotionally distant and committed to a life of boundaries, Kashvi tries to accept her new reality while silently breaking inside, holding onto her dreams, her education, and her little brother as her only reasons to keep going. As two strangers are forced into the closest bond society recognizes, lines begin to blur between duty and emotion, protection and attachment, distance and connection. But with a dangerous father watching, a fragile trust between them, and buried wounds from Aryaveer's past resurfacing, their lives become a storm of sacrifice, healing, and unexpected emotions. In this story of broken dreams and silent endurance, destiny does not ask for permission-it only demands courage. Will they remain bound by responsibility... or will they one day find something deeper within the promise that changed everything?

"She accepted the darkness not as punishment, but as home." 🌸🌸🌸 Anya has a father and three brothers. But they don't really care about her-they're just family by name. After Anya's mother died giving birth to her, the blame for her death was placed on Anya. Since then, the only things she has received from her father and brothers are blame, disrespect, ignorance, abusive words, and bullying-especially from her two elder brothers. They call her unlucky, a bad omen, a symbol of misfortune. They hate her. And over time, Anya has come to accept all of it. She has started to believe it herself-that she is cursed, that she brings bad luck. Anya is just 16 years old, but she's not like other girls her age. She has never lived a normal childhood-no fun, no laughter, no affection. Her whole life has revolved around just one thing: studying. Whether in school or locked inside her four-walled room, that's all she's ever known. She doesn't like facing her family. Deep inside, she believes she's the reason they're always upset, that her presence is a burden. She truly thinks she's not good enough to live under the same roof with them. Now, she's made a decision: after she turns 18, she will leave. Not to run away-but to protect them from herself. But what will happen when her family finds out what she's planning? Will they feel relief-or regret? Do they truly hate her-or have they just never tried to understand her? What will happen if they realize they were wrong to blame a child for something she never caused? What if they ask for forgiveness and beg her to stay? Will she stay? Or will she finally choose herself-for the first time in her life?

Will she ever forgive them for abandoning her? Will they ever be able to unveil her secrets? Where was she for all those years? This is story of a girl who was abandoned by her brothers when she was seven. Now, after 9 years, her brothers brought her back home. How will she deal with them, simultaneously dealing with the terrors that haunt her every night? Sneak Peak- Once we were out, I stopped and turned to face my blood relatives and said, "Okay, now that I am out you don't need to act anymore. Now, you guys can go back to your house and pretend that this never happened. I will go to my house and will make sure that we will not cross each other's path, even by accident." I was about to turn back when Ezekiel held my elbow, stopping me on my track. I immediately snatched my hand back glaring at him and said, "Do not ever touch me again." His eyes showed an emotion of hurt that I am sure I read incorrectly because one thing that Kensington brothers are incapable of was getting hurt by any outsider. And that was what I was. An outsider. Sensing the tension in the atmosphere Aldric took it upon himself to say whatever his brother was about to. "You are going with us." He spoke. One thing about Aldric Kensington was that once he has made his mind, there is nothing in this world that can change his decision. This is the very quality of his that made my life a living nightmare, and this is exactly why I hate him more than any of my brothers. "Let's go Athaliah," Ezekiel said this time. That name. No one has called me by that name in six years. "My name is Zahra," I corrected and continued, "And I am not going with you." #1 in pastabuse #1 in abusing #1 in nightterror on 27/02/25 #1 in running on 2/2/25, 26/4 #1 in babysister on 15/12/24 #1 in brothersconflict on 27/12/24 #2 in abandoned #2 in broken #2 in brokenfamily #4 in olderbrother #5 in mafiaprincess #9 in siblings #3 in siblingrivalry #18 in trauma #34 in littlesister #59 in mafia

The Raichands.... The Raichands were not just a family; they were a legacy.For decades, the Raichand name had stood for power, wealth, and unquestioned respect. Their mansion .... vast, silent, and imposing was a symbol of everything they had built. From the outside, they looked unbreakable. Inside, however, emotions were carefully locked away, spoken only through glances and unshed tears. In the Raichand household, words were measured, feelings were controlled, and love was rarely expressed. Success mattered more than happiness. Reputation mattered more than truth. Conflicts were never shouted they were buried under silence. Each member of the family carried their own quiet battle. Couples lived together but grew apart. Parents ruled with authority but withheld affection. Children learned early that speaking from the heart came at a cost. What was never said slowly became heavier than what was spoken. This was a family where dinners were formal, smiles were practiced, and wounds were invisible. Behind closed doors, pride replaced warmth, and expectations replaced understanding. The Raichands were fighting a war... not against the world, but against each other. And the battlefield was sile.

Royal Academy, Mumbai's most glorious and prestigious school is a fever dream for students and parents alike. it also, however, is home to some of the most notorious kids known to mankind, who treat the premises like their personal playground. Not out of insolence, no, but as a rebellion, against the tyrant Vice Principal Banga. The old man makes the school feel more like a high-security prison than a place to learn and grow. At the center of it are six teenagers, very different from each other and yet, not quiet. Balwinder Singh Bagga is a straight A kid, Royal Academy's rockstar, who handles his guitar and his notes with equal reverence.

Varun Bansal couldn't be more different from his twin even if he tried. Where Rishabh was meticulous silence and academic perfection, he was a storm of chaos and a walking disaster. Always one poorly timed joke away from detention. And then there was Samar Shergill. The in-house casanova, who hides behind charming smiles and flirtatious lines. Enter Anirudh Jaitley. The ex-student, who had no intention of returning to a world he had left far behind, but when destiny pulls the strings there isn't much one can do. On the request of Principal Ramanujam, Anirudh re-enters Royal Academy. This time as a teacher himself, to help these students on a right path and maybe, just maybe make them realize that there is more to life than petty rivalries and wasted rebellion.
