Sara didn't know she was temporary.
In a quiet cafe, her two-year love story ends with five devastating words:
"It was just an experiment."
Samira had whispered forever. She had blushed under every touch, kissed her like the world disappeared, and made Sara believe she was truly chosen. Three weeks before her wedding to a man, she reduced every secret night and heart emoji to nothing more than a trial run.
Humiliated and shattered, Sara returns to her life determined to pretend she's fine. Fake smiles. Heavy silences. Pain no one else sees.
Until Meera Sharma starts noticing.
Her blunt, quietly protective office mate sees everything Sara tries to hide: the laughter that dies too fast, the flinches at the word "love," the cracks she can't seal. With a sharp tongue and unexpected gentleness, Meera slowly slips past every wall.
After being someone's secret for so long, Sara is terrified of hope, of being chosen only to be abandoned again. But Meera looks at her like she's worth everything, not just a hidden chapter.
As late-night conversations replace careful distance, Sara faces the question she fears most: Can Meera heal what Samira broke, or will loving her mean risking the last fragile pieces of herself?
Because this time, if her heart breaks again, Sara isn't sure there'll be anything left to rebuild.
