The door creaked open, and there he stood - Arjun Maheshwari, a silhouette framed by the doorway. His eyes, once the sunflowers that captivated Maham's gaze, now held a different story.
"Arjun, you're back sooner than expected," Maham remarked, her eyes betraying a mixture of surprise and curiosity.
Arjun, meeting her gaze, carried the weight of unspoken words. "There have been developments," he replied cryptically, his eyes revealing a turbulence within. His gaze fixated on Maham, seemed to be wrestling with a revelation. The premature return hinted at an undercurrent of tension, a deviation from the anticipated timeline that set the stage for a fresh wave of challenges and discoveries.
In those initial moments of reunion, neither Arjun nor Maham ventured into the tempest of conversation.As the hours passed, the room became a silent arena where glances spoke volumes and the air crackled with unspoken tensions.
"I found something, Maham," Arjun finally broke the silence, his voice tinged with a mixture of pain and urgency.
Maham, pausing in her actions, looked at him with a furrowed brow. "Found something? What do you mean?"
Arjun hesitated, as if grappling with the weight of the truth he was about to unveil. "Proof," he said tersely. "Proof that indicates your involvement, Maham, in something much more sinister."
Maham's eyes widened in disbelief, her heart pounding in her chest. "What are you talking about, Arjun? We've spent months together. You know me!"
"The truth has a way of revealing itself, Maham. It hurts, but I can't ignore what I've found" said Arjun.
He came forward to her and caressed her cheeks feeling her sweet breath on his lips then he moved backward the tender moment, however, took an unexpected turn as Arjun's hand, which had moments ago caressed her, now delivered a resounding *SLAP*. Stunned, she looked at Arjun, his eyes now devoid of the warmth she once knew.All Rights Reserved
