The Hands That Hold Me

She thought love was the flutter of a crush.
He knew love the moment he saw her.

Meher Verma - a cheerful dreamer who believes in fairytales, music, and love. Her world is small yet full of warmth, where family and friendship mean everything. She trusts completely, gives her all without hesitation. Yet her innocent heart mistook attention for affection, attachment for love.

Kiaan Mehra - a gentleman who gave up his passion to shoulder responsibilities too early. Steady, reliable, carrying a heart that craved what it never had. He had no space for dreams, knew no such innocence-until he saw in her the life he had long forgotten. His weary heart found a reason to beat again. She was his escape, his fantasy come alive... even if she never realized it yet.

Between mistaken attachments, betrayals of trust, and the cruel twist of destiny, two souls stand at the edge of a love story they never expected. One who fell first. One who realized too late. A love healed by presence, but tested by fate.

Because sometimes, the hands that hold you aren't the ones you asked for...
but the ones you were destined to need.
