We often talk about love at first sight, but does that exist really? or rather it's a curiosity to know about someone at first sight. sometimes you just look at someone and your mind goes.."Who are They.?" That pull can feel intense enough to be mistaken for love, but it's more like the beginning of a story, not the story itself. And sometimes, that curiosity-when it refuses to fade-is even more powerful than instant love, because it keeps pulling you back, making you stay, making you learn. here is an one shot about something at first sight.

The room was dim, the last traces of evening light slipping through the blinds. The case was over, the chaos had settled, but Arjun hadn't moved from the window. His shoulders were tense, his jaw tight - the kind of silence that came only when he was fighting something inside. Riya stepped in quietly, her footsteps soft but certain. For a long moment, he didn't look at her. Then, in a voice low enough to almost break, he said: Arjun: "I thought you were going to leave... like everyone else." Riya blinked, surprised by the vulnerability he rarely allowed anyone to see. She stepped closer, her voice steady. Riya: "Not a chance. Not in this life. I'm not leaving you, Arjun. I'll always be right here... even if it's as your shadow." He finally turned toward her, eyes searching her face as if trying to find the truth behind her words. Arjun: "Why? Why do you have so much confidence in me?" Riya's expression softened - not dramatic, not emotional, just honest in a way that hit harder than anything else. Riya: "I don't know how to explain it. It's not logic. It's not duty. It's just... trust. The kind that doesn't break. The kind that doesn't fade. The kind that stays even when everything else falls apart." Arjun swallowed, the tension in his shoulders easing just a little. Riya stepped closer, her voice barely above a whisper. Riya: "You don't have to believe in yourself all the time. I'll do it for you. That's what trust is, Arjun. That's what... we are." For the first time in a long time, he let himself breathe. And for the first time, he didn't feel alone. all rights reserved only to owner of the story @ copyright ©️ yatireddy
