Say You Have Only Me

By Nadeera Goonetilleke

She has a rule for herself: never look twice. Never seem eager. Never let anyone see how much she wants to be chosen.

Chapa has always believed she's different from other girls - not one flower in a crowded bunch, but a single bloom growing high on a branch no one can reach. Untouched. Unbothered. Exactly as she wants it.

Then a stranger climbs onto her morning bus, and every rule she's ever made for herself starts to unravel.

He's handsome in a way that stops conversations. Confident without trying. And every morning, without meaning to, Chapa finds herself watching for him - a glance through the window, a seat taken beside her, a "good morning" that lingers in her mind long after she's stepped off the bus.

But wanting someone and knowing someone are two very different things. As Chapa falls deeper into a love she's too proud to admit and too afraid to ask about out loud, she's forced to confront a question that will change everything: is she in love with the man in front of her - or with the idea of him she's built in her own heart?

Say You Have Only Me is a tender, quietly powerful story about pride, longing, and the terrifying vulnerability of wanting to be someone's only one. For anyone who has ever loved from a distance and wondered if it was ever real, this is a story that will feel like it was written just for you.
