One night, a storm lashed violently outside—the kind of rain that rattled windows and echoed like cannon fire. Gunnu startled awake, breathing fast. Abhinav quickly pulled her into his arms.
The fear in her eyes broke him. “I can’t lose you,” he whispered, voice raw. “This baby, our future—I can’t…” His words cracked, for the first time bare of composure.
She pressed her trembling lips to his chest. “And I can’t live without you. Don’t you see, Abhinav? We’re in this together. Stop carrying it all alone.”
Lightning lit her teary eyes; thunder shook their walls. For a moment, the storm inside matched the one outside. And then—he kissed her forehead, holding her fiercely, surrendering finally not to fear, but to love.
That night, they didn’t just weather a storm—they merged as one, closer than ever.
