"You are the elixir that stills my restless soul, the breath that sustains my life, and the balance between my chaos and calm, Rooh."
It is a story about two individuals who are fragmented yet whole. unique, yet united.Bro...

Stepping off the plane in New York, I felt as if I had been reborn. The energy of this city brings the feeling of liberosi- an Italian word for a sense of boundless freedom. My eyes shine with hope and my heart dances to the vibrant music of life as the city welcomes me with open arms.
This is it. I made it to New York. This city tells stories of ambition, struggles, dreams, and countless possibilities. City of tall skyscrapers, bustling streets, and a rhythm of its own.
I couldn't say no when Helix Bio-Tech offered me an HR assistant position. This opportunity felt like a golden ticket to life. Excitement runs through me as I envision my new life.
After hailing a cab to my apartment. I recall my frantic online search for a place to live. It was a whirlwind, filled with countless listings and endless searching. That's when I met Alex, a real estate agent who guided me to a cozy apartment that fit my budget- it felt like a small miracle.
The cab pulls in front of my apartment, a modest yet beautiful building nestled within a charming neighborhood. The driver helped me with my bags. Entering the apartment a wave of tiredness hits me. I close my eyes falling on the couch with a deep relieved sigh.
A jarring noise wakes me up. I curse under my breath fuck I forgot to call my grandmother.
I pick up the call, with a nervous laugh"Hello"
"Hello Rooh. Did you reach safely? I told you to call me as soon as you step off the plane" a concerned voice filled my ears, wrapping me in a cocoon of warmth.
"Yes Amma, I reached my apartment just a minute" I reply while looking at the time. It's been 2 hours, but is it considered a lie if it saves your life?
"Good, eat something before you start unpacking. I still can't believe you left the comfort of home for this unknown city alone."
"We talked about this. Tell me how is everyone?" in high pitch trying to sound excited.
"Everyone's fine. Just missing you."
"I will call you every day, I promise. Anyway, I have to go now. There is so much to set up."
"Bye. Take care" her voice filled with love and the essence of home.
After hanging up, I sent a message to Aadhya, my best friend to let her know I arrived. Undelivered. She must be deep into the ocean or maybe high up in the mountains. No one can be too sure when it comes to her.
Nestling into this new space, I can't help but wonder if my scattered pieces would ever find their home.
My thoughts drift back to him. It's been two years 4 months and 20 antagonizing days since we parted ways. To be precise since he tore my heart into pieces and left me to mend its fragments back.
Fuck him for teaching me how to paint my world in vibrant colors only to snatch away the brush.
