Chapter 25 – Dinner at Midnight
Vanshika listened to Krish’s painful story with complete attention. She didn’t interrupt him, nor did she rush him with questions. She listened carefully not just to his words, but to the emotions hidden behind them.
Slowly, something within her began to change. The rigid, distant, almost unfamiliar behavior she had shown toward Krish until now started to soften. It felt as if she was beginning to understand him his tangled life, his silent suffering, his search for genuine love.
She was starting to realize why Krish looked at her with such hopeful eyes.
Yet, even now, Vanshika’s intentions were not entirely clear.
Vanshika asked softly,
“Do you think you’ll ever meet that girl again?”
Krish shook his head.
“No. She’s gone very far away now.”
