Rainaa Srivastava and Vaarin Mathur marry out of timing, pressure, and a shared sense of maturity, not love. Both are cautious, shaped by the marriages they've watched unravel, wary of how easily hurt can change people.
The trauma runs far too deep to not live with it everyday, if not every second.
A man who questions marriage, but chooses to stay.
A woman who has seen its wreckage, yet still believes in its possibility.
The marriage they enter is not built on certainty or passion, but on honesty, restraint, and the willingness to sit with discomfort.
What unfolds is not a promise of forever,
but the slow unearthing of trust, vulnerability, and a kind of love that is not demanded, only discovered.
