Shayaa
In a life where nothing extraordinary was supposed to happen, Aarohi never expected one message about a simple ride to change everything.
He was loud where she was quiet.
Confident where she hesitated.
Certain where she questioned.
Kabir entered her world like familiarity disguised as coincidence - first an internship, then college, then the same city, and finally the same place to live. Proximity turned into conversations. Conversations turned into habit. And habit slowly blurred the line between friendship and something neither of them could name.
But closeness with Kabir was never simple.
He challenged her, confused her, made her feel seen one moment and invisible the next. He called her important, yet joked at her expense. He claimed she was close to him, yet she was never sure if she truly knew him at all.
As misunderstandings pile up, egos clash, and unspoken expectations grow heavier, Aarohi begins to question everything - her feelings, her worth, and the connection she once believed was real.
Because sometimes the hardest truth isn't that someone hurt you.
It's realizing you don't even know what you meant to them.
And when silence finally replaces the conversations that once lasted for hours, Aarohi must decide whether some relationships are meant to last...
or just meant to change you.
A story about blurred boundaries, emotional attachment, pride, misunderstandings, and the complicated space between friendship and love.
Not every connection has a name.
Not every ending has closure.
But some people stay with you... even after they're gone.
