Amandeep Singh Aulakh

Two weeks have passed since she left for England, and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I haven't heard from her since the day she left, and it's like my heart is being consumed by a fire that won't go out. Every day feels like an eternity without her, and I can't help but wonder what she's doing, who she's with, and if she's thinking about me.

I try to keep myself busy, but nothing seems to distract me from the ache in my chest. I find myself staring at my phone, hoping for a message or a call from her, but it never comes. I know she's busy with her studies and her new life in England, but I can't help feeling like I've been left behind.

I miss her more than words can express, and I can't wait for the day when she comes back to me. Until then, I'll keep counting down the days and dreaming of the moment when I can hold her in my arms again. Our love may be forbidden, but nothing can stop the way I feel about her. She's the only one who can make my heart sing, and I'll wait for her no matter how long it takes.

Both of my sister-in-laws, the elegant and wise elder sisters of my Prabh, are well aware of the depth of my affection for her. Their keen eyes have witnessed the blossoming love that has taken root within my heart. From the moment I laid eyes upon her, I knew she was the one who held the key to my soul. And now, even her own sisters, who have known her since birth, can see the undeniable truth that resides within me.

It is a truth that resonates through the very air we breathe, whispered in hushed tones among friends and family. The love I bear for her is a flame that burns brighter than the sun, casting its radiant glow upon all who dare to witness it. It is a love that knows no bounds, defying the constraints of societal norms and expectations. And yet, despite the undeniable passion that courses through my veins, she remains oblivious to the depths of my adoration.

I long for the day when she will finally see the truth that lies before her. When she will realize that my love for her is not a fleeting fancy, but a steadfast devotion that knows no end. For it is not just I who recognizes the intensity of my emotions, but a chorus of voices that echo through the halls of our shared existence. Everyone, it seems, knows of my love for her, everyone except the one who holds my heart in her delicate hands.

Five years ago, our family embarked on a journey to Canada for a special occasion. The air was filled with excitement and anticipation as we gathered together, ready to create lasting memories. Little did I know that this trip would forever change the dynamics between me and her, the one who held my heart captive.

As we ventured into the unknown, I couldn't help but steal glances at her, my heart pounding with a forbidden desire. She was the epitome of beauty, her laughter like a melody that enchanted my soul. But fate had a cruel sense of humor, for when she referred to me as her brother, it felt as if a thousand daggers pierced my heart.

Consumed by a whirlwind of emotions, I couldn't contain the storm brewing within me. The jealousy and longing collided, igniting a fire that threatened to consume everything in its path. In a moment of weakness, I lashed out at her, my words sharp and unforgiving. The tears that welled up in her eyes were a painful reminder of the damage I had caused, and from that moment on, I vowed to carry the weight of regret for making her cry.

Over the span of five years, our bond had grown immeasurably stronger. It was as if fate had intertwined our lives, bringing us closer with each passing day. Despite the significant age difference of twelve years between us, our connection transcended such trivial matters. We had become inseparable, forging a friendship that knew no boundaries.

Time seemed to have no power over the depth of our friendship. It was a love that defied societal norms and expectations. As the years went by, our souls intertwined, creating a bond that was unbreakable. It was a forbidden romance, hidden from prying eyes, but our hearts knew no limits. Age was merely a number, unable to hinder the profound connection we shared.

Our friendship was a secret whispered between us, a forbidden love that blossomed against all odds. The world may have judged us for the age difference, but we paid no heed to their opinions. Our hearts recognized the purity of our connection, and that was all that mattered. We laughed together, cried together, and supported each other through life's trials and tribulations. Our friendship was a testament to the power of love, defying societal norms and proving that age was insignificant in the face of true companionship.

Love in my family is not a fleeting emotion, but a force that binds us together with unyielding strength. When we fall in love, we do so with a passion that knows no bounds, a love that consumes our very being. And in the depths of my heart, there resides a love so profound, so intense, that it transcends all reason and logic. It is a love that belongs solely to Prabh, the one who holds the key to my soul.

Prabh, with her enchanting presence, has become the center of my universe. Her radiant smile illuminates even the darkest corners of my existence, filling my days with an ethereal light. Every moment spent in her company is a treasure, a precious memory etched into the tapestry of my life. Her laughter, like a sweet melody, dances through the air, captivating my senses and leaving me yearning for more. In her eyes, I find solace, a sanctuary where my deepest secrets are safe, and my true self is embraced without judgment.

The love I feel for Prabh is a forbidden flame that burns within me, a clandestine affair that defies the norms of society. Our hearts beat in synchrony, entwined in a love that is both exhilarating and dangerous. Yet, despite the obstacles that stand in our way, I cannot deny the intensity of my emotions. For when I am with her, the world fades away, and it is just the two of us, bound by an unbreakable bond. In this forbidden romance, I am willing to risk it all, for the love I share with Prabh is worth every sacrifice.
