Sarah's pov

Sarah was intently browsing through various online course options when her phone suddenly rang, pulling her attention away from her task. She picked up the phone and saw that it was Esha calling.

I couldn't help but smile a bit, feeling a sense of comfort from Esha's familiar voice. "Hey, Esha," I answered. "What's up?"

How are u feeling Sarah did anything happened between u both Esha stated

Sarah took a moment to process Esha's question, her mind immediately going back to the encounter with Aarav that morning. She sighed softly and replied, "I'm feeling... okay, I guess. And, well, something did happen this morning with Aarav."

Sarah could hear the eager curiosity in Esha's voice and decided to tell her what had happened. "Well, this morning, Aarav and I had breakfast together for the first time," she began, her voice a bit shaky. "I was cooking and he just... sat down at the table and started eating. I tried to talk to him, but he was kind of cold and distant."

" Ohh I see .. i thought something interesting happened delluu me" esha said

Sarah chuckled softly at Esha's eagerness for a more dramatic revelation.
"Oh, you thought something more interesting happened?" she said, a hint of amusement in her voice. "Sorry to disappoint you, but there wasn't much excitement. We just had breakfast together, and he was distant and cold the whole time."

"Are u both leaving alone his parents not around" Esha asked

"Yeah, his parents aren't around right now, so it's just the two of us in the house." Sara stated

Sarah sighed "Aarav doesn't live with his parents. He has his own mansion that's fairly isolated from everyone else. We're practically on our own here."

Esha gasped upon hearing this revelation. "Wait, he has his own mansion?" she said incredulously. "That's a bit fancy, isn't it? I didn't know he was loaded like that."

"Yeah, it surprised me, too," Sarah admitted, still a bit taken aback by the grandeur of Aarav's home. "I didn't know much about his background when I agreed to marry him, but now I'm seeing a whole new side of his life. It's... a lot to take in."

After 30 min Sarah ended the call with Esha, her thoughts swirling with the conversation they had just had. Talking to her friend had provided some comfort and distraction, but now she was left alone with her thoughts again.

Sarah replayed the memory in her mind, recalling the sensation of Aarav's strong hands grasping her waist, holding her steady to prevent her from falling. She remembered the brief moment when their eyes had met, his gaze intense and unreadable.
"He was so strong," she whispered to herself, her fingertips lightly touching the spot where his hands had been. "And the way he looked at me... I couldn't tell what he was thinking."

Sarah's thoughts were interrupted by a new wave of confusion and unease.
"Why am I feeling this way?" she thought, a frown creasing her brow. "Why am I so fixated on him and these little moments? It's so strange... I don't understand it."
She shook her head, as if trying to shake off the confusing thoughts, but they clung to her like a persistent shadow.

Time skiped at evening while Sarah was sitting in the living room engaged in some thoughts he heard someone spoke

Aarav walked into the living room, finding Sarah sitting on the couch with a pensive look on her face.
"Hey," he said, shattering the silence. "What are you thinking about?"
