"We can't be together-"
"Wrong."
"Atreya please-"
"I said wrong." He stepped closer, voice dangerously quiet. "Try again."
"This isn't a debate-"
"You're right." His eyes didn't leave mine. "It's not. Because this isn't ending. I don't care what they said to you. I don't care what they threatened. You're not leaving me, Shravya."
"You don't understand-"
"Then MAKE me understand!" For the first time his control shattered completely.
"Because I have spent years...YEARS... making you mine. So whatever they told you. Whatever they threatened. Tell me. And watch me burn it all down."

She thought silence meant he had moved on.
Silence was just his way of loving her louder.
He kept everything.
Every photograph.
Every memory.
Every single page of a diary she doesn't know exists.
The question was never whether he would come back.
The question is -
Will she let him back in,
Or will she finally realize that some doors should stay closed forever?
