Mia Maples

Mia never believed in fate—until the night she met Liam. It was raining. He was standing alone beneath an old oak tree, lost in thought, his eyes filled with a sadness she couldn’t ignore. A simple conversation in the rain turned into late-night talks, quiet moments, and an unspoken connection that neither of them fully understood. Liam was an artist haunted by the past. Mia was a woman too focused on the future to notice what was missing in the present. Together, they found something unexpected—hope. But love is never simple, especially when fear stands in the way. And one day, without a goodbye, Liam disappeared. Now, standing under the same oak tree where it all began, Mia is left with unanswered questions, a heart full of what-ifs, and a choice: move on or believe that some connections are meant to find their way back. A story of love, loss, and the kind of bonds that weather every storm—When the Rain Fell is an emotional journey of resilience, healing, and the possibility of second chances.

He tells her there’s been a mistake: her time has not yet come. However, returning to her world of suffering is the last thing Mia wants. Why go back if it means reliving the same nightmare? Sensing her reluctance, the reaper makes her an offer: a chance to start over, to erase the injustices, and claim a better life. But at what cost? As the reaper's intentions remain unclear, Mia finds herself at a crossroads. Should she accept this strange pact, risking losing a part of herself? Or should she choose to abandon this fight, finally surrendering to the eternal embrace of death? Prepare for a heart-wrenching journey, blending hope, sacrifice, and redemption. Alongside reapers, angels, and demons, Mia must face not only the world but also the darkness within herself. And you —will you dare to follow her on this journey where every choice can break your heart?

The aroma of freshly brewed coffee swirled through the small café. Mia, a talented but self-doubting columnist, finds solace in her favorite neighborhood café, where the comforting hum of coffee machines and quiet conversations inspire her best work. Across the room sits a reserved bookshop owner with a passion for literature and a knack for lingering in the background. Mia noticed him, how he had a quiet intensity about him that intrigued her. But she was too reserved to approach, so their interactions were limited to fleeting glances and unspoken words. One destined morning, a torn page from reserved bookshop owner's favorite novel flutters to Mia’s feet. Scrawled in the margins is a note that reads: “If we wait for the perfect moment, it may never come.” Assuming it’s an accidental drop, Mia returns the page, only to learn this man left it for her intentionally—a quiet declaration of interest from a man who has admired her from afar.
