FORGOTTEN PROMISESE - Strangers Under One Roof

90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQt35KONHR

Days passed.

The house was peaceful… but cold.

Meera and Arjun lived like two people forced into the same space.

Polite. Distant. Careful.

Breakfast Scene

Meera sat at the table, awkwardly stirring her tea.

Arjun entered, already dressed for work.

“You should eat properly,” he said without looking at her.

She frowned slightly.

“You always talk like that?”

“Like what?”

“Like… I’m an employee.”

He paused.

Then quietly sat across from her.

“I don’t know how else to talk to you right now.”

That honesty surprised her.

Trying to Remember

Meera spent most of her time exploring the house.

Photos. Decorations. Small things.

She found pictures of them together.

Smiling.

Happy.

But it felt fake to her.

She whispered,

“Was I pretending… or is this real?”

Burnt smell filled the air.

Arjun entered quickly.

“What are you doing?!”

She jumped.

“I… I thought I knew how to cook…”

He sighed, stepping forward.

“Move.”

He fixed everything efficiently.

Meera watched him.

“You know how to cook?”

“A little.”

She smiled faintly.

“That’s unexpected.”

He didn’t respond.

But for the first time—

There was a small moment of normalcy.90Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtBaTtiJ25
