Tara's heart was racing, her breaths quickening as she tried to figure out what was happening. The shadowy figure in front of her moved swiftly, and before she could react, strong hands covered her mouth. Panic surged through her veins as she struggled, only to recognize a familiar touch, one that had become more than just a presence in her life.

Adi : Shh, Tara... it's me

A low, hushed voice said almost breathless. The scent of sandalwood and something distinctively him, something that she had unknowingly grown used to, surrounded her.

The hands slowly dropped from her mouth, and Tara spun around, her eyes locking with Adi's in the soft moonlight. His expression was a mixture of worry and something deeper-an intensity she had never seen before.

Tara : Adi?! she whispered harshly, her shock mixing with frustration.

Tara : Neenga inga enna pandringa????Na bayandhae poiten...

Adi took a step back, his hands raised in a gesture of surrender.

Adi : Unna paaka dhaan na vandhen Tara.

She frowned, arms crossing tightly over her chest, her defenses going up immediately.

Tara : Enna paaka adhuvum indha nerathula.....

Adi said softly, his voice laced with desperation.

Adi : Na unaku phone pannen ma but nee call ae attend pannala.........

Tara hesitated, glancing at her phone lying on her bed through the open door behind her. She had been too upset, too distracted, to check it. Her frustration quickly returned.

Tara : Adhukunu ipdi thirudan maariya varuvinga.

Adi's eyes softened as he took another step forward.

Adi : I... I didn't know how else to reach you. Ennala unna paakama iruka mudila.

There was a flicker of vulnerability in his voice, one that tugged at her heart despite the anger she felt. She turned her face away, not wanting to let her emotions get the better of her.

Adi : Ivlo naal illama enna dhidrnu indha care la? Tara's voice broke, her hurt seeping through.

Adi's heart clenched at the pain in her voice. He gently placed his hand on her arm, his touch warm and grounding.

Adi : Tara, I care. I care more than you realize.

She blinked back the tears threatening to fall.

Tara : Then why have you been pushing me away? Why does it feel like I'm always the one left behind?

Adi's grip on her arm tightened slightly, as if he feared letting go would mean losing her completely.

Adi : Because I was blind, Tara. I didn't see what I was doing to you... what I was doing to us.

Tara turned to look at him, her eyes filled with emotion. And now?

Adi's gaze held hers, his eyes full of regret and sincerity.

Adi : Now... I realize what I've been missing. I realize how much I need you.

A tear slipped down her cheek, and before she could wipe it away, Adi's hand gently cupped her face, his thumb brushing the tear with a tenderness that made her heart ache. His voice softened, laced with emotion.

Adi : I'm sorry, Tara. I've been an idiot. I've let my ignorance hurt you, and I didn't even see it."

Tara's breath caught in her throat as she felt the weight of his words sink in. There was something raw in his tone, something honest. She could see the guilt in his eyes, the realization that he had taken her for granted.
