Some fires burn in silence.
Some grace is shaped by pain.
Aarohi Raichand, a dancer with a radiant smile, hides a past and some deep secrets only her two best friends, Tanishka and Divya, truly knows
Rudra Singhania appears cold to the world, but with his family - and now Aarohi - he reveals a quiet softness, shaped by loss. Only his closest friends, Shubh and Vihaan, know how deep those scars run
Alongside them are friendships that spark just as fiercely - from Tanishka's wild laughter meeting calm, collected Vihaan, to responsible Divya clashing with the dramatic yet endearing Shubh, Rudra's closest friend.

She met his gaze, steady and sharp.
"I'm not the girl everyone thinks I am."
He didn't flinch. "Good. I'm not the man they expect me to be either."
The silence between them stretched - not awkward, but dangerous. The kind of silence that dared the truth to surface.
She took a breath, one she didn't realize she'd been holding.
"There are things you don't know about me, Rudra. Things I can't let you know."
His voice dropped, quiet but certain.
"Then don't tell me. Just don't expect me to stop looking."
Her mask slipped - for just a second - and he saw it.
The fire.
The fracture.
The fear.
And maybe... the same ache that lived in him.

Unseen Fire and Unbroken Grace -
A story of pasts that haunt, friendships that anchor, and a love that transforms.
