"Layers of Truth"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhdOQuy0w6

Ehsan pulled his chair back slightly and looked at Zoboriya with a deep gaze.

There were no questions in his eyes, only a strange softness—

as if he knew that whatever he was about to hear,

he would have to guard it carefully.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3J8TNUfSV

Zoboriya pressed her lips together, took a breath, and slowly spoke—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RoUMcnIxJ

> “Ehsan… because of someone, and for the sake of his love,

I left India.

For the past year, I’ve been here in Canada.

I don’t want that person… to come in front of me again.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vcEnYpXtc

Her voice was firm, but in her eyes…

the moisture of an old wound began to glisten once more.

"Rare in This World"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqWgQvWnZa

Ehsan noticed her fingers trembling slightly.

Her lips quivered as she said—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dQmbaqiFl

> “Ehsan…

People who love you so much that they search for you in every corner of the world…

are not found twice.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RHGOb7OyJ

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I895J4kug

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67Q0NPZmIa

That sentence hung in the air—

as if a hidden truth inside her had been touched for the first time.

"Unfinished Words"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJdqrPcQzt

Ehsan parted his lips to speak but stopped himself.

For a moment, his eyes simply read every expression on her face.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cQ3xMmNFt

> “Zoboriya…

You say I’m unaware of the truth of your life…

and that’s true.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3n5vRCQpHm

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKMfCGaWkl

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaz60RuaNWm

He gave a faint smile—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdk9GH3ue6C

> “But you too… are unaware of the beautiful moments in mine.”

"Sitting Across"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0r57kzNa6

Ehsan extended his hand, gesturing toward the chair in front of him—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGyxeSnuuy

> “Sit… right here, across from me.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJmsPqkhFD

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ704AZMGkGY

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrSta5S5Kd

Zoboriya looked at him for a moment,

as if trying to understand in which part of his life he was about to place her.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3l8ceOMpsH

Then, she slowly pulled the chair and sat down.

"Ehsan’s Story"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFe2jPraoI

As soon as Zoboriya sat, Ehsan turned his gaze toward the window—

at the falling snow outside, weaving a white silence.

Then he began to speak softly—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ27bqfOxFN

> “You think I only find stories in pictures…

but the truth is, I’ve lived them.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmUEYXsNwG

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkXbrTL3ki

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynyfsinSG8

There was tenderness in his voice,

but deep inside it lay a faint exhaustion—

as if he had returned from somewhere far away.

"A Journey That Never Returned"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiZQupw4rB

> “For the past three years… I’ve only traveled.

Cities, countries, forests, mountains…

But in truth, I was only searching for one face.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKOdOkNkev

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMgEPsF9BS

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjCFN7vUIG

Zoboriya’s eyelids lowered slightly—

as if her heart had unknowingly recognized that pain.

"A Girl… and a Farewell"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOvpo6p5p4

Ehsan twisted the strap of his camera around his fingers and said—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlPVbogNS2

> “That girl was the reason for my first photograph.

She taught me that

every picture captures a piece of time…

that even time cannot erase.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuorgBK2vvc

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDSus4ytvC

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto28OPn1Fx

He took a deep breath.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBYqPh2ksI

> “Then one day… she simply said—

‘I’m leaving.’

And she left.

Without giving a reason.

Without saying whether she would return or not.”

"Search and Solitude"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYN5raHTfd

In her city, among her friends,

even in those places we had once visited together.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXLueXQ9tZ

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76nabJMFcv

Ehsan’s eyes were still fixed on the falling snow—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFpAFyai69

> “But it was as if she had vanished from the world.

And I… just kept walking.

Hiding behind the camera.”

"Zoboriya… The First Meeting"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEKxpFMAbo

Ehsan smiled faintly as he looked at her—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTsYMFNpIb

> “Then, one day… in the corner of this bakery,

I saw you.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMFs8uuDyh

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aFOQNhRSG

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuJpHfwuvo

Zoboriya met his gaze,

but her heartbeat grew strangely restless.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKvzZDa2OC

> “Your eyes had the same exhaustion…

that mine did.

As if both of us, in searching for someone else,

had lost ourselves.”

"A Bridge"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWAPUqqls0

> “Maybe… that’s why, Zuboo,

I felt… your story and mine

are like the two ends of an old bridge.

And I want… that one day we meet in the middle.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog3RVPEdtI

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2vsl9KiJO

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQuu15KyGv

Ehsan took a sip from his cup and simply said—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Alj9G1wPZ

> “I came to hear your truth,

so that your burden could be halved.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasn6dWNhQM

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5sWBnQuMH

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpGcZ52yfp

Zoboriya looked at Ehsan with a mix of surprise and pain.

From his face, it was impossible to tell—

that his heart too carried the same wound as hers,

a wound that could never heal.

"Zoboriya’s Truth"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLvHZUaZsF

Zoboriya gripped the cup tightly between her hands.

The steam rose slowly,

but the cold inside her seemed to grow deeper.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrXLLRVK92

She took a deep breath,

but her voice broke before it could escape.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yPNA3hGNS

> “Ehsan…

The reason I left India and came here…

was not something small.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUdQfxUSvT

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVffdKIjim

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAM8zFi3Z98

Ehsan looked at her in silence—

without interrupting, without asking—just waiting.

"That Man"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYpmkbP1tT5

> “There was a man…

who loved me more than anyone in this world.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGq2HAiWD3

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGSjV925am

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidCKwe8iD0

Her eyes wandered far away—

as if the snowy scene beyond the window

had taken her back to the streets of her past.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXyjwcVY9V

> “His love… was such that

no matter where I was in the world,

he would find me.

And I…

chose to run away from that love.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklSfE2c9DJ

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb411I542b

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10g0xZ3fbP

Ehsan’s fingers rested lightly on the cup’s rim.

He didn’t speak,

but in his eyes floated a single question—

Why?

"A Pain That Wasn’t Easy"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xdzG50aTQ

> “Because… along with that love,

there was also a fear.

He loved me, yes…

but he hid the biggest truth from me.

The pain in my life—

it was given to me by Abuzarr.

A pain I can’t escape.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOAldvibB6

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidHosT3HFz

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnNQZsjRol

Zoboriya’s voice trembled.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ2dGTNDK1

> “For the past year here in Canada…

I’ve been keeping myself away from that love.

But now, Ehsan, through you…

that name has returned to me again.”

"Moisture and Silence"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnPRsuaRKi

Ehsan saw the faint glisten of moisture in her eyes.

Her fingers were still trembling.

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ04ftfJO1T

> “People who love you enough

to search for you in every corner of the world…

are not found twice.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihEaMDicV2

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmThehyFiG

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWZhkta71c

Her words lingered in the air—

"An Exchange of Truth"

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8pkhnvJjF

Ehsan spoke softly—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMjn03egOl

> “Zuboo…

I may not know every truth of your life.

And in the same way, you don’t know

the beautiful stories in mine

that have brought me here.”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ83Ga0Edwi

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTfntStKJW

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLpdh2h9hr

Leaning forward slightly,

he looked into her eyes—

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7iEBEAntq

> “So… why don’t we, today,

each give the other half of our truths?”

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiQNMXx39b

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS1Fui6Qi2

52Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xzw1SW4bA

The two looked at each other in silence.
