From the moment I first saw Adhira, her eyes captivated me-deep, soulful, and filled with secrets I longed to uncover. In a world where words often fail, her gaze became my language. Each fleeting glance was a conversation, every meeting of our eyes a whispered confession. She spoke without speaking, and I listened without asking, drawn into the quiet storm of her presence. I was lost, and willingly so, in the silent poetry we shared. This is not just our story of love, but of the unspoken moments that connect two souls forever.
