They say fate has a way of bringing people together. But for Aarish Singh Rathore, fate had only takenโ€”his parents, his home, his legacy.

Now, years later, he stood in a city far from where his story began, chasing dreams built on broken foundations.

Aashima Sharma had always believed love was fragile, something that slipped through your fingers the moment you held on too tightly.

She had learned not to trust easily, not to expect permanence. Until one decision, one marriage, changed everything.

๐Ÿ’”Scene 1: The Breakdown๐Ÿ’”

The room was silent except for Aashimaโ€™s muffled sobs. She sat curled up on the bed, knees drawn to her chest, her body trembling as she whispered through shaky breaths,"Aaj... aaj kuch bohot galat ho jata, Aarish...โ€(Today... something terrible almost happened, Aarish...)

Aarishโ€™s fingers curled into fists at his sides. His entire body was tense, his jaw clenched, his breath coming in harsh, controlled exhales.

He knelt in front of her, his hands reaching outโ€”gentle but firmโ€”grasping hers.โ€œKisne kiya ye, Aashima?โ€(Who did this, Aashima?)

His voice was dangerously quiet, but his stormy eyes betrayed the rage brewing inside him.

She hesitated before whispering the name. One of his business associates. Someone he had once considered a potential ally.

Aarish inhaled sharply, his fingers tightening around hers.โ€œMain uski zindagi tabaah kar dunga. Kasam hai mujhe, Aashima... uss insaan ka wajood mitane se pehle main chain se nahi baithunga.โ€(I will destroy his life. I swear, Aashima... I wonโ€™t rest until I erase that manโ€™s existence.)

Her eyes widened as she looked at him, her sobs quieting for a moment.โ€œAarish...โ€

But he shook his head, his thumb brushing against her tear-streaked cheek.โ€œMain hoon na? Tumhare saath... humesha.โ€(Iโ€™m here, right? With you... always.)

Aashima choked back another sob, and in that moment, she let herself collapse against him. His arms wrapped around her protectively, holding her as if shielding her from the entire world.

โ€œKoi bhi takleef tumhe chhoo bhi nahi sakti jab tak main zinda hoon.โ€(No pain can even touch you as long as Iโ€™m alive.)

And for the first time in a long time, she felt safe.

๐Ÿ’”Scene 2: The Unbreakable Man, Breaking๐Ÿ’”

Aarish sat in the dimly lit balcony, staring into the distance, a heavy silence hanging between him and the world. Aashima could see itโ€”the stiffness in his posture, the way his fingers clenched and unclenched, the slight tremor in his breath.

She walked to him, kneeling beside his chair.โ€œAapko kya laga, mujhe pata nahi chalega?โ€(Did you think I wouldnโ€™t notice?)

Aarish didnโ€™t respond. He kept staring ahead, his emotions locked away behind the walls he had spent years building.

Aashima reached for his hand, squeezing it gently."Agar aap mere saamne bhi apne jazbaat nahi rakh paa rahe toh ye toh meri haar hui na, Aaru...โ€(If you canโ€™t even share your emotions with me, then isnโ€™t that my loss, Aaru?)

Her voice cracked, pleading.โ€œAap kyun nahi samajhte? Sab andar rakhne se kuch nahi hoga... Please, ro dijiye na...โ€(Why donโ€™t you understand? Keeping it all inside wonโ€™t help... Please, just cry...)

Aarish flinched but still didnโ€™t look at her.

Aashima swallowed, her own tears threatening to spill."Main yahan hoon. Humesha rahoongi. Aapke liye.โ€(Iโ€™m here. I will always be here. For you.)

Her fingers cupped his face, forcing him to meet her gaze."Please, Aarish... express yourself... Apne aansuon ka bojh mujhe uthane dijiye... ek baar ke liye toh ,Aarish... please.โ€(โ€œLet me carry the weight of your tears... for once, Aarish....please.โ€œ)

For a moment, silence stretched between them. Then, like a dam breaking, Aarish inhaled sharply, his face crumbling as his head dipped forward.

Aashima caught him as he finally let go, his arms wrapping around her as silent tears traced down his face.

And just like that, he wasnโ€™t alone anymore.

Two strangers. Two pasts filled with wounds too deep to forget. And yet, in each other, they might find the one thing they never expectedโ€”home.
