All about you

All about you: Ep 4

As the silence between them grew, Jerry felt his heart sinking. He didn't want to jump to conclusions, but the evidence was mounting. He grappled with the pain of unrequited love and the fear of losing a cherished friendship.

As difficult as this experience was, Jerry learned that honest communication, patience, and understanding are crucial when navigating romantic feelings and relationships. Determined to maintain their friendship, Jerry decided to give Ishwarya space. He continued to focus on his own life and interests, providing her with the autonomy she seemed to need.

In a sudden turn of events, Ishwarya makes a surprise call to Jerry, informing him that she will be picking him up in just five minutes. Jerry, taken aback by the suddenness of the situation, quickly gathers himself and gets ready. True to her word, Ishwarya arrives promptly and whisks Jerry away on an unexpected journey.

As they travel, Jerry is struck by the beautiful landscapes and the peaceful atmosphere that surrounds them. After what seems like hours, they finally reach their destination: an oldage family farm home, nestled in the heart of the countryside. Jerry is introduced to a group of strangers, who, as it turns out, are Ishwarya's family.

Ishwarya's parents greet them warmly, and Jerry is struck by their kindness and hospitality. But it is Ishwarya's daughter who truly captures his attention. A bright and vibrant young girl, she is the light of Ishwarya's life, and Jerry can see the love and devotion that Ishwarya has for her child.

As Jerry spends more time with Ishwarya and her family, he begins to understand the burden that she has been carrying. Due to a difficult divorce, Ishwarya has been forced to navigate a complex legal system, fighting for custody of her daughter and protecting her family's assets. The strain of these events has taken a toll on Ishwarya, but she has faced them with a quiet strength and determination that impresses Jerry.

Despite the challenges she has faced, Ishwarya has never wavered in her responsibility to her family. She has shouldered the burden of caring for her daughter, providing for her family, and fighting for what is rightfully theirs. And now, in the peaceful solitude of the oldage family farm home, Ishwarya and her family have found a sanctuary from the problems that have plagued them.

As Jerry reflects on Ishwarya's journey, he is struck by the realization that not all lives are the same. While some of us may never have to face the challenges that Ishwarya has endured, she is a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit. She is a woman who has taken on the responsibility of caring for her family and has faced every obstacle with determination and courage.

Ishwarya and Jerry sat on the beach, basking in the warm glow of the setting sun. The sky was painted with beautiful shades of orange and pink, as the sun gradually disappeared from sight. It was in this peaceful and romantic setting that Jerry turned to Ishwarya and said the words 'I'm sorry.'

Ishwarya looked at Jerry, confused. 'Why sorry?' she asked. Jerry hesitated for a moment before responding, 'I thought you were ignoring me, and after that night, I can't forget you.' Ishwarya looked at him, surprised. She had no idea that Jerry had felt this way. She took a deep breath and decided to open up to him.

'See, Jerry,' she began, 'the anger, sexual attachments, and feelings are common in your age. I can understand, but you need to understand me and my problems. I have my daughter, and her future is in my hands. After all that, I wanted a break. When I met you, I was happy to spend time with you, and I wanted to spend more time with you. But I have to face many problems in my life and fight for my life. You know, you are the one with whom I trust the most, after my husband.'

Jerry listened intently, taking in every word that Ishwarya said. He felt a wave of gratitude wash over him. 'Thank you for trusting me,' he said. 'I was thinking that dating someone would be very costly, especially for a middle-class student like me. But after you came into my life, I realized I had a better option.'

Ishwarya looked at him, surprised. 'Better option? You mean I'm an option?' she asked. Jerry quickly clarified, 'No, no, not like that. I mean you are the only girl in my life who is a friend.' Ishwarya smiled, relieved. 'And what about Neha?' she asked. 'She is also your friend, na?'

Jerry sighed. 'Neha is my common friend. She didn't even call me for her birthday party. My friend Alex called me, not Neha,' he explained. Ishwarya raised an eyebrow. 'Then why was Neha worried when we both had sex?' she asked. Jerry hesitated before responding, 'Not that, actually. She was worried about you. You have responsibility, and in case something goes wrong, then it's a big deal. That's why Neha was worried.'

Ishwarya moved closer to Jerry, placing her hand on his shoulder in a half-hug. Jerry smiled, his heart filling with warmth. 'You know one thing,' he said. 'I will not lie. Until I met you, I was still a virgin. But that night, I gave it to you.'

Ishwarya smiled, her heart filling with joy. She was grateful for Jerry's honesty and his understanding. She knew that they had a special connection, one that was built on trust and mutual respect. As they sat there on the beach, watching the last remnants of the sun disappear from sight, they knew that they had something precious, something that was worth fighting for.

The beautiful orange sunset had witnessed their conversation, a conversation that was filled with honesty, understanding, and trust. It was a conversation that had brought them closer, a conversation that had strengthened their bond. And as they walked away from the beach, hand in hand, they knew that they had something special, something that they would cherish for the rest of their lives.

The sun was just beginning to rise, casting a warm glow over the peaceful beach that was home to the old age home where Jerry had stayed for the day with Ishwarya. The two of them had enjoyed their time there, relishing in the tranquility of the surroundings and forming a deep connection with each other.

Ishwarya gently woke Jerry up, and the two of them began to prepare for the journey back to Jerry's house. As they drove, Jerry couldn't help but feel a sense of joy and contentment from the time he had spent with Ishwarya. But there was something else lingering in the back of his mind, something he wanted to say to her but couldn't quite find the words.

When they arrived at Jerry's house, Ishwarya helped him inside and then turned to leave. Jerry tried to speak, to express the feelings that were bubbling up inside of him, but he was unable to get the words out. Ishwarya, sensing his struggle, gave him a warm smile before turning to leave.

As Ishwarya made her way back to her own home, she couldn't shake the feeling of Jerry's presence. She had grown to care for him deeply, and she knew that he had expectations for their relationship that she couldn't fulfill. Despite this, she couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness at the thought of him no longer being a part of her daily life.

At the same time, Ishwarya was also worried about Jerry and his feelings. She knew that he was in for a rough time as he navigated the challenges of his illness, and she wanted to be there for him in any way she could. But she also knew that she couldn't be with him forever, and that the gulf between their lives was too wide to be bridged.

As Ishwarya settled back into her own routine, she couldn't forget the vibes of Jerry and his innocence. She knew that their time together had been special, and that it had left a lasting impact on both of them. Despite the challenges that lay ahead, Ishwarya was grateful for the memories they had shared, and the bond that they had formed. It was a bittersweet farewell, but one that both of them would always cherish.
Jerry had always been thinking about Ishwarya.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't forget about her and her words. After much contemplation, Jerry decided to propose to Ishwarya.
