The Curse of a Decade Aarush Malhotra had spent years trying to forget her. After completing his Master's abroad, he had every reason to stay. A successful career, a comfortable life, and a future his parents had carefully imagined for him. Yet, against everyone's expectations, Aarush returned to India. His parents couldn't understand why. They couldn't understand why their son would willingly walk away from the life he had built overseas, especially when he had no obvious reason to come back. Aarush never told them the truth. Because the real reason wasn't his career. It wasn't his family. It was her. A girl he had known for years. A girl who had unknowingly occupied a place in his heart that no one else could ever reach. But there was one problem- She didn't love him. At least, that's what Aarush believed. And perhaps that was why he had never confessed. Instead, to make his parents accept his decision to return to India, Aarush agrees to marry Shivi, his family's longtime friend-the woman his parents have always believed would be perfect for him. It should have been simple. A new country. A new career. A new life. A new wife. And yet, no matter how hard Aarush tries to move forward, his past refuses to let him go. Because some people don't leave your heart just because they leave your life. And sometimes, loving someone means carrying a secret you know you can never tell them. Aarush loved her. She never knew. Or perhaps... she knew more than he ever realized. Ten years. One unspoken love. One life-changing decision. And a truth that has remained buried for far too long. Because the greatest curse isn't loving someone who doesn't love you back. It's never knowing whether they ever did.
