ANIRUDH

I'm sorry... I lied to you.
I never loved you.
It was just a mistake. I'm sorry! I just wanted to be with you because of your mo...money.
It's the truth, Ani. I never loved you. It was all a lie.
You believe it or not, that's the truth.
Believe it or not, that's the truth.
That's the truth.

Each word she said as she walked away shattered my heart into millions of pieces.

I fucking know it’s not the truth. It could never be the truth. Our love was forever, never-ending... I know that. I feel that. Bondita's love for me was so true. I saw it in her eyes today. When she looked at me, her eyes said something entirely different than the words she spoke.

For two years, Bondita and I had built something beautiful, something pure. Those weren't the actions of someone who didn't love me.

Every moment we shared was a testament to our love. The way she would laugh at my silly jokes, the way she would hold my hand when no one was looking, the way she would blush every time I called her Bondu. That wasn't fake. It couldn't be.

Two years of love, trust, and companionship can't be erased with a few harsh words. She thinks she can push me away with lies, but I know her better than that. Her love for me was evident in every gesture, every touch, every word she ever spoke to me in private.

Bondita's eyes betrayed her today. They were filled with pain and sorrow, contradicting every word she uttered. I could see the conflict in her, the struggle between what she felt and what she thought she had to do.

Why did she lie? What could force her to push me away like this? Was it baba, her family? Or something more insidious? I need to find out. I need to understand why she would hurt us both like this.

Her words cut deep, but my love for her is deeper. It’s not just about her beauty or her presence; it's about the bond we share. The bond that’s now being tested to its very limits. She can say whatever she wants, but she can’t make me stop loving her.

Our love is too strong to be destroyed by lies. I will find out the truth. I will fight for us, for our future. Bondita, you can lie to me all you want, but I know you. I know your heart. And I know our love is real.

The bell rang, jolting me out of my thoughts. I quickly wiped away the tears threatening to spill over. Whatever happens, I can't afford to miss class. I have responsibilities, and I can't let this break me.

I took a deep breath and walked towards the classroom, each step feeling heavier than the last. My mind was a whirlwind of emotions, but I forced myself to focus. This was my duty, my commitment to my students.

As I entered the classroom, my eyes instinctively searched for Bondita. And there she was, sitting quietly in the corner, her eyes downcast. She was wearing a simple red kurti, looking as beautiful as ever. But today, there was a heaviness in her posture, a sadness that mirrored my own.

Our eyes met briefly, and for a split second, I saw a flicker of the Bondita I knew – the one who loved me. But she quickly looked away, her face a mask of indifference.

Why are you doing this to me, Bondita?

We both know that you love me and I love you...

Then why?

I forced myself to look away and started the class. "Good morning, everyone,"

As I began the lesson, my eyes kept drifting back to her. She sat there, scribbling notes with an intensity that felt forced, her usual spark absent. She was physically present, but her mind seemed elsewhere, just like mine.
