Koi Fariyaad

Vedanth Avinash Tiwari or as she knew him, Ved, was the epitome of success--both by professional standards but also by the myopic laws that governed South Asian society's fickle opinion of a person. And by no means was either perception a happy accident.

But a man, with seemingly nothing left to want, at his core only had unfulfillment & longing to offer to himself. A broken soul, devoid of life's one essential happiness. Love.

And most of it, like everything else in his life, was his own doing.

And this world would revolve around her, only her.
