If Only We Were Real

By Mr. Som Subhro Nath

What if the greatest love story you ever lived... was never real?

Arjun believed heartbreak was the end-until it became his beginning.

Shattered after losing Kavya, the girl he thought was his forever, Arjun buries himself in books and pain. His hard work earns him a place at IIT, but it's not success that saves him-it's Ishani. A free-spirited Bengali girl with a love for literature and fire in her soul, she sees through Arjun's silence. Together, they create a world of whispered secrets, starlit conversations, and stolen happiness.

But beneath the magic lies a haunting truth.
None of it ever happened.

In a heart-wrenching twist, readers discover that everything-every moment of joy, pain, love-was part of Ishani's coma-induced dream. In reality, she is a 17-year-old girl lying in an ICU, her mind escaping a world where she had lost too much-her brother, her relationship, her will to go on.

But this is not where her story ends.
It's where it begins.

Through therapy, writing, and time, Ishani rebuilds herself-scarred, but not shattered. She grows into a brilliant scientist, an acclaimed author, and eventually, a woman loved for who she is, not who she once was.

"If Only We Were Real" is a poignant, poetic journey through love, illusion, trauma, and rebirth.
It asks: What does it mean to be real?
And reminds us that even the dreams we wake up from... can change us forever.
