Despite the physical distance between them, Ria and John's relationship remained strong. They talked on the phone every day, their voices filled with the warmth of their shared love. Video calls became a cherished ritual, allowing them to see each other's faces and feel a sense of connection.

Their conversations spanned a wide range of topics, from their daily lives to their hopes and dreams for the future. They shared their joys, their sorrows, and their fears, creating a bond that transcended the miles between them.

Ria found herself missing John more than she ever thought possible. She longed for his touch, his laughter, his presence in her life. Yet, she also felt a sense of gratitude for the connection they had forged, a love that had endured despite the challenges of distance.

One evening, as Ria was talking to John on the phone, she decided to confess her feelings to her family. She had been hesitant to tell them about her relationship with John, fearing their disapproval. But she knew that she couldn't keep it a secret any longer.

With a deep breath, Ria gathered her courage and told her parents about John. Their reaction was not what she had hoped for. They were shocked and disappointed, expressing concerns about the long-distance nature of their relationship and the potential for heartbreak.

Ria tried to explain that her love for John was deep and genuine, that she was willing to do whatever it took to make their relationship work. But her parents remained unconvinced. They warned her of the dangers of getting involved with someone she barely knew, and they urged her to focus on her career and her future.

Ria felt a pang of sadness, but she was determined to stand by her decision. She knew that her love for John was worth fighting for, and she was not going to let her parents' disapproval deter her.
