“Ahaan, I think we should stop.”
Silence engulfed the air, giving away that he had already seen it coming. He had sensed the trouble in their paradise from the very moment she went an entire day and a whole night without dropping him a message.
That didn’t happen before. That didn’t happen since they became friends but something had changed.
She grew distant and even though she said that she was alright when he ended up asking her the same a couple of times, he knew that something was off.
Wordlessly smiling, he forwarded his hand in front of her. She stared at it for a long moment before slipping hers in it.
As they started walking, she realized that his silence was far too deafening for her to handle. His lips stretched a little more as she gave a light squeeze to his hand.
“You aren’t liking even a minute-long silence of mine and you are saying that you want me to choose silence for the rest of our lives? You sure you can manage that?”
Her head momentarily fell onto his shoulder. How he could read her so impeccably had always been beyond her.
“I don’t know but I can’t be so selfish, Ahaan. Even though we began as friends, we no longer are just friends.”
His brow slightly raised, not expecting her to be that vocal.
“I am never going to deny anything that my heart feels, Ahaan but there is one more truth to me that you aren’t foreign to. I have trust issues after how things turned out between Yug and me. I don’t think I have it in me to step into that aspect of life again.”
“You don’t trust that I’ll never leave your side, do you?”
“I don’t.”
“Good. That’s how it should be, Ishqi!” He slowed on his steps, pulling her hand in his hold near his heart. “I don’t have any issues with you having trust issues. I know, Yug has left you too shaken to trust a man with your heart again. Just tell me something, in the past one year… have I ever… ever let go of your hand when you desperately needed one?”
Shaking her head, she stared into his eyes that held absolute adoration for her in them.
“We can stay the way we are until you feel that you have it in you to let me make your heart mine even if it means staying friends forever.”

This is a random piece of fiction. Absolute imagination. Kind of a random mini tale based on the picture on the characters named Ishqi and Aahan from the show Ishk Par Zor Nahi.
Awesome
Awww love it 🥺😍❤️
