White hospital walls…
The faint sound of beep… beep… beep…
And a strange heaviness in her head…
The girl slowly opened her eyes.
"Where… am I?" her voice was weak and shaky.
A boy standing beside her immediately leaned closer, his eyes filled with relief.
"You're okay… I'm right here," he said softly.
She looked at him… carefully… for a long moment.
"Who… are you?" 😶
For a split second, his expression froze.
But then he forced a gentle smile and held her hand.
"I'm Aarav… your boyfriend."
A sharp pain hit her head.
Fragments of memories… broken… scattered…
But nothing came back.
"Boyfriend…?" she whispered.
"Yes… you used to call me 'Aaru'," he said, trying to sound natural.
She closed her eyes, trying to remember…
But there was only darkness.
Two days later…
Aarav stayed by her side all the time.
He fed her, took care of her…
As if he truly loved her.
"This is your favorite coffee," he said, handing her a cup.
She gave a faint smile.
"But how do I know what I like… if I don't remember anything?"
Aarav paused for a second…
Then replied, "I know."
That night…
She heard Aarav talking softly on the phone.
"She doesn't remember anything… everything is under control."
Her heart started racing 😳
👉 Under control…?
👉 What does that mean…?
Slowly, she got out of bed and walked toward the door…
But the moment she touched the handle—
Aarav turned around and saw her.
Their eyes met.
The room fell into a heavy silence.
He slowly started walking toward her…
"You should be resting…" his voice wasn't as soft as before.
She stepped back, fear creeping in.
"Who… are you really?" 😰
Aarav stopped.
Then, with a faint smile, he said—
"The one who knows you the most."
