roop ya gun?
gun.
aur roop?
wo to dekhne wali ki aankhon me hota hai.
arthaat?
kisi ko patthar me shivling dikhta hai aur kisi ko shivling me bhi patthar.
jeevan ka varnan teen shabdon me?
amrit, prem, aur tyaag.
prem kya hai?
ishwar ki aankh me ubhra hua khushi ka aansu.
aansu kya hai?
sukh aur dukh ki hadd.
sukh kya hai?
bhram.

When I was in school my classmates used to say that I Am like the yeh Jawaani hai deewani character "Naina" -introvert, scholar, thoughtful, calm.🩺📚👓
But I think I'm more like "Geet" of jab we met -carefree, bubbly, crazy. Or maybe I long to be like her. Atleast I'm Geet in my head.🌶️🍸🚜

Jazbaat: A Fiery Tale of Love and Desire
Please be aware that this fanfiction contains scenes of violence and explores mature themes. Reader discretion is advised.
Author's Note: I want to clarify that my fanfiction based on the movie "Animal" is purely a work of fiction and is not meant to endorse or justify any actions or behaviours depicted in the film. I do not support or agree with the characters' actions or attitudes portrayed in the film. My intention is solely to explore the characters and scenarios from the movie in a different light and to see how much more depth and complexity I can bring to them through my writing. Thank you for understanding.
Please note that I do not own any characters from the original movie Animal. The only characters that belong to me are the original characters (OC) created for this fanfiction.
(Preview)
‘Let me go,’ she whispered to him, gritting her teeth. Her heart started to break at what she was experiencing right now and by whom.
With rapid breaths, he shook his head and tightened his hold on her. In his mind, he was already planning ways to keep her close to him and only him; all these years, he had ached for the one thing, which was her. And no way in hell would he let her go now, after all these times.
‘You can’t seriously do this to me.’ A tear fell on her face as she tried to remove herself from the person she loved. Right now, all she could see was the obsessive, possessive person, not the man she fell in love with.
With his big hands, he took her chin and forced her to see his eyes, which spoke all the words his mouth couldn’t do, but it still didn’t change her mind.
She is not supposed to stay here and doesn’t want to now. Whatever feelings they had for each other don’t matter now.
‘You are married, Abrar. Not once but thrice, and you can’t possibly have me either! I am not some side-chick you could have as a trophy to showcase, and I will never be yours.’ She spat the very well-known facts with disgust on her face.
‘Not yours. Not yours, ' Abrar kept, hearing those words that left Aparna's mouth. As his eyes turned red with anger, his hands tightened around her chin, causing her breathing to become rapid.
‘I am yours Abrar. We are one soul and will always be.’ Abrar remembered their promise and her words when they were both young. And it doesn’t matter how the present is; all he knows is that she is his as much as hers.
She is the flower that makes his morning bloom.
She is the sky that covers him as a blanket.
She is the hunger that keeps his animal alive.
She is Aparna to his Abrar.
The first Installment of the series will be live on "17/03/2024"
Let me know your thoughts, guys!!

Hello beautiful people out here!
I am Deepali. I am from Pune, Maharashtra. I am 21 years old (shaadi ki umar)
Desi fleabag? Because I relate the most with that specific character. Horny, messy, vulnerable, and crazy all the time but also considerate, expressive, and kind. I am a desi version of her.
🎀What I like? I like to dance, sing, journal, write poems and stories, and doom scroll all the time
📍Professional side of me
I did my bachelor's in philosophy. I have been working in an organization for quite a long time. I am a content writer. I am a writer/poet. I am an open mic performer. I have performed at esteemed platforms like tapeatale, poemsindia, kommune, and many more. I am a psychology and sociology student too. I am a co-facilitator and youth lead in different schools through my organization. I have worked on poetry anthology books.
The most important part of my life is being a poet or a writer. It's been a decade since I started writing, and professionally, it's been two years. My poetry and stories revolve around different and unique topics like mental health, family dynamics, feminism, societal norms and culture, romance, life intricacies, friendship, etc. I love being a poet and telling people stories about me and the world because I believe poetry is everywhere. I have a blog called Sip and Sofa Stories where I share the most wholesome blogs and fun-to-read stories.
Not much of a reader, but I like reading poetry by Sylvia Plath and more female writers.
💌 Movies and songs? I am a die-hard fan of Bollywood. I listen to 2000s Bollywood and retro songs. No one can challenge me the way I vibe on these songs and dance. My childhood is memorable because of Sunidhi Chauhan, Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, RD Burman, Asha Bhosle, Sonu Nigam, Shaan, Arijit Singh, and many more artists. I also listen to Kpop, pop, indie type of music on days when I am dissociating at the fullest. Hold my clutcher, I am a Swiftie and Lana Del Rey fan too, bitch.
I love Bollywood movies, and I am yet to discover more Western movies. I have a bunch of comfort movies like Ye Jawani Hai Dewaani, Piku, Om Shaanti Om, etc.
🪕 My aesthetic type? A combination of Geet and Piku and a little bit of Poo vibe sometimes. But I love desi clothes. Kurti, jhumkas, bindi, bangles, oh god I love being a woman.
Interesting facts about me :
🌸I have three tattoos on my body (Crescent moon, "you're on your own kid" title, "grateful"). I love getting tattoos!!
🥃Loneliness who? I go to bars, cafes, and parks alone because why not. I fear no god.
💛I never was in a relationship, just some hardcore crushes who crushed my soul.
❤️🩹I have been in therapy for almost three years and on and off on meds. GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) gang assemble!
😶🌫️I love and hate spending time on LinkedIn. Girl boss era.
💬I write poetry about my crushes and defame my ex-friends. They know it very well! Lol.
I am a hopeless romantic and a professional delusional person. I will cook the best scenarios in my head and write about them. I romanticize life on another level though there are 156 rupees in my bank account by going to aesthetic cafes.

AMC's Nautilus
Action, political intrigue, plot twists and a healthy amount of sea monster skirmishes:
These are just some of the many reason why even those unfamiliar with the works of Jules Verne will find "Nautilus" to be an engaging SciFi adventure series.
Here are my (spoiler-free) thoughts on the show.
Note: as I write this, "Nautilus" is airing only on SVT: This is How I Watched it Living Outside of Sweden
When I heard that there was going to be a TV series about Captain Nemo's backstory, I was mightily aprehensive. The main reason for this apprehension was the mere fact that Captain Nemo's past is so dark and tragic. Thankfully, the series begins after the horrific events of the 1857 rebellion and just as the Nautilus is launched. What happened to Nemo's family is shown in flashbacks which explain the events without being graphic.
When I began the show, I honestly had very low expectations. I didn't really expect to like it. To my delighted asonishment, it turned out to be one of the best film tributes to Jules Verne I've ever seen - no hyperbole.
Throughout the series, there are fight scenes, periodic depictions of people bleeding and a couple "blink-and-you'll-miss-it" innuendo jokes, so I wouldn't watch it with a small child, but I think it would be appropriate to watch with most young teenagers (13+).
I believe both well-read Jules Verne fans and those who've hardly heard the name "Captain Nemo" will enjoy the intriguing storyline, likable characters and aesthetic scenery. There are many other factors which made me fall in love with "Nautilus" as well:
The Man of the Seas
The character of Captain Nemo has always facinated me. I was blown away by how perfectly and accurately Captain Nemo was portrayed in this series. Shazad Latif, in my opinion, is an immaculate Captain Nemo and he really brought the character to life with all his complexities. Out of all the film portrayals of Captain Nemo I've seen, I'd have to say his has been by far my favorite.
Tributes to Indian History and Culture
I'm American an my husband is Indian. He and I were both very impressed with the way in which Indian culture and history were presented. I want to see more shows like this to teach our son about his heritage.
Many of the action scenes reminded me of South Indian cinema. In one episode there is a scene where the Nautilus crew is playing cricket against some Englishmen, which may seem a little disconnected from the rest of the story, but Bollywood fans may recognize it as a delightful tribute to "Lagaan."
The Writers Were Well-Verse in Vernian Lore
Although the story wasn't 100% accurate to the book, the writers obviously had read Verne's books and knew the nuances of Nemo's story and background quite throughly.
There were certain details which made me excited, such as when Nemo has an enigmatic exchange with an Englishman in which they greet each other warmly and seem to be thanking each other for...something. Nemo ends the conversation by saying, "Give my regards to Phileas!"
In Verne's other classic, "Around the World in 80 Days," Princess Aouda is the widow of the Raj of Bundelkhand. Since Jules Verne often dropped little hints that his books existed in the same universe, I always wondered if Aouda and Nemo were distantly related, since Bundelkhand is Nemo's kingdom of origin.
A question is posed: in this conversation, was Nemo thanking the Foggs for saving someone he cared about? This is the first time I've ever seen anyone address the detail that Aouda and Nemo might be relatives.
Tributes to the artwork of Alphonse de Neuville and Édouard Riou
I noticed several shots which were obvious tributes to the first-edition illustrations of Jules Verne's classics, such as Captain Nemo standing on the submarine deck with his spyglass, and the map of Lincoln Island on a cave wall. Those details absolutely thrilled me!
Everything I've Ever Wanted in a Verne-Inspired TV Series - Except for That Cliffhanger!
Everything about this show absolutely floored me. It was everything I could have hoped for in a Captain Nemo TV series...and then it ended.
Such a well-done series ending with fairly significant loose ends felt like a punch in the gut more forceful than the maelstrom itself. I've been trying not to let it overshadow the rest of the show. I wish with all my heart that there could be a season two!
If anyone's curiosity gets the better of them, I compiled a list HERE of questions I desperately want to know the answers to. I hope someone may be able to answer my questions one day!
I want NEED more!
While I'm still coping with my post-series let down, I find myself pining away for more shows like this; shows based off of classic adventure novels which honor the spirit of the origional author.
I want shows which are imaginative, exciting and engaging, but have snippets of real-life science, culture and history woven in. Incidentally, I daresay these are the same elements which make the stories of Jules Verne himself so timeless.

This got long so I decided to send it in an ask.
So India has like a dozen film industries organized by language. Bollywood is the biggest and that's Hindi. There are also movies n Tamil, Telegu, Malayalam, Marathi, Kannada, Bengali, Punjabi and more. I won't go into all of them because I mostly watch movies in Tamil, Malayalam, and Hindi and the occasional Telegu movie.
(super cool thing is that sometimes, there's actors who work in multiple film industries so it can be like a fun surprise when you see someone you associate with a specific language pop up somewhere else)
I tried to pick based on what you said you liked in one of the other replies. You mentioned you like musicals though so you'll be happy to know that songs are integral to Indian movies. Also these recs are a mix of personal favorites and ones I know to be popular/iconic because if it was just up to me, half of these would be thrillers, horror or crime because I think indian films do those genres really well. They also lean heavily towards romcoms.
Hindi:
Sholay (1975) This is just a classic Hindi action movie starring Amitabh Bachchan, who's possibly the biggest actor from Bollywood in the 70s and 80s Like even i've watched it and I haven't even taken the time to look through 70s Hindi movies yet.
Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke (1993) A runaway bride gets taken in by three kids and they have to hide her so their uncle who's taking care of them doesn't kick her out. The kids are so goddamn cute. This stars two very known 90s stars, Amir Khan and Juhi Chawla.
Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) Iconic Hindi romance starring equally iconic pair of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. Shah Rukh is by far the most popular beloved actor in Bollwood since the 90s and arguably still today. Him and Kajol were a big pair that did tons of movies together in the 90s and early 2000s. I cannot understate how popular these two are.
Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) Another, arguably even more iconic Shah Rukh Kajol romance but it's a love triangle. Personally, I can't stand this movie but it's super duper popular and also features the love of my life, Rani Mukherjee as the 'it' girl Tina that Shah Rukh's character initially falls in love with.
Kabhie Kushi Kabhie Gham (2001) I'm sorry, I don't know how this ended up being all Shah Rukh Kajol movies but I needed to mention it because this is my personal favorite from this pair and in general. I also love the way this leans into the 2000s aesthetic in the second half and you're going to be baffled and amused by the character Pooja in the second half.
Devdas (2002) Devdas is an epic tragic love triangle featuring again Shah Rukh Khan but also Aishwarya Rai, one of the most influential celebrities to come out of India in the modern age and Madhuri Dixit, beloved actress and dancer from the late 80s/early 90s. The song 'Dola Re' from this movie is one of the coolest dance sequences to exist.
Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003) A modern love triangle- you know, I didn't realize how many love triangles are on here but this one will make you cry. It's a romcom but I promise, the tears will come. And then you'll watch it again.
Om Shanti Om (2007) A love letter to Golden Age Bollywood, this movie is going to pack in approximately 15 references per minute, you won't understand any of them and it will still be an excellent time. At heart, this is a fantasy romance/revenge featuring reincarnation (which is a suuuper popular trope but ended up being sparse on this list). Starring Shah Rukh Khan across Deepika Padukone in her first role (they go on to be a pretty beloved pair though not as much as srk and kajol). I rewatch this 1-2 times a year.
Jodhaa Akbar (2008) Starring Aishwarya Rai again, this is a historical romantic drama set in the 1500s. I always get distracted by how beautiful the costuming in this is. You'll recognize Hrithik Roshan from Kabhie Kushi Kabhie Gham but with the ugliest mustache known to mankind.
3 Idiots (2009) is a comedy/coming-of-age about 3 college friends. Sounds basic but it's really hmm, heartfelt? Starring Amir Khan.
Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) coming of age romance/drama/comedy something about a group of college friends. Stars Deepika Padukone across Ranbir Kapoor (big 2010s actor).
Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavadahn (2020) first big blockbuster type movie about queer people. It made me cry, i made a gif from this my header for like over a year, it's a bit cliche but yk
Telegu
Telegu's really hit it off in the last 10 years or so but I've only a passing familiarity and I definitely can't tell you what's been popular in the last couple decades. BUT
Bahubali 1 and 2 (2015/2017) It was a cultural phenomenon when it came out, because of the effects and cinematography but also largely because of how it's one story split intentionally into two movies. That concept was unheard of in Indian film and the overwhelming success of Bahubali is directly responsible for the dozens of 2 and 3 part film series being produced today in south indian films. It's like an epic fantasy action movie(s) about- actually i'm not going to spoil the plot on this one. In simplest terms, it's about a guy learning about his dad.
RRR (2022) Not a personal favorite but it actually has a tumblr fanbase. Bromance but like two indian revolutionaries fighting against the british in pre-independence India. Really, it's very much about their friendship. Stars Jr NTR and Ram Charan, both of whom are pretty popular Telegu actors. This like Bahubali was an insanely popular hit.
Tamil (this was so hard because i like tamil movies but i don't think they're the greatest. They do however have the best love songs, hands down)
Kadhalan (1994) It's an action romance ft politics and terrorists but at heart, it's a inter-class romance about a college kid that falls in love with a politician's daughter. You may have noted by now that inter-class romances are a BIG theme in indian movies. This stars Prabhu who is still an iconic choreographer and dancer and Nagma.
Minsara Kanavu (1997) a romance Prabhu again and Kajol from all of those Hindi films. The plot is that she doesn't believe in love and wants to go become a nun and he's trying to change her mind because he's in love with her. It would've been so easy to get this film wrong but it ends up being really hard to dislike.
Anbe Sivam (2003) a slice of life about a guy who gets stranded at an airport and makes a friend. R. Madhavan, who plays the friend is the poster boy for 90s Tamil romances and is an excellent romance actor, if you're interested.
Ghilli (2004) A sports player accidentally gets involved with a gang. It's like an action romance featuring some of the most iconic actors in Tamil film, including Vijay and Trisha. I had my cousins dance to one of the songs from this at my wedding. This movie actually just reran in theaters for it's 20 year anniversary a couple months ago.
24 (2016) A guy invents a time traveling machine. I really wanted to include a movie with Suriya because he along with Vijay are like the two big stars of the Tamil Film Industry. They both have catalogs of 60+ films. And in this movie, Suriya plays a triple role.
Malayalam. This one's my native industry which somehow made it really hard to pick movies from because I mostly watch masala films or (like low-brow action comedies).
Kireedam (1989) A action/drama about a guy's downfall. Thematically, think Othello. Stars Mohanlal, the biggest actor in Mollywood and watching him in this movie will show you why.
Killukam (1991) a comedy about a girl, an illegitimate daughter of a supreme court judge, pretending to be mentally ill while searching for her father. Very of it's time but it's classic comedy. Stars Mohanlal again.
Yoddha (1992). One of the rare times that Malayalam film delves into fantasy, this is a movie about a young rural guy protecting a Nepalese kid from a murderous, supernatural cult. It's been a minute since i've watched this so I can't speak to how the cultural aspects were treated but I remember that part of this was shot in Nepal. It's also considered a cult classic. And features Mohanlal yet again.
Aaram Thampuran (1997) Another mohanlal film about a man who gets involved in a village's affairs. Stars Manju Warrior who was a known 90s actress before she got married and quit. This one's an iconic action film but I think that Mohanlal's role in this is like the template of classic Malayalam hero and says a lot about the qualities that make up a South Indian typical movie 'good guy'.
Nandanam (2002) The fact that this movie is this old makes me feel old. A slightly dramatic, mostly realistic interclass romance ft (1) god. It'll give you a fair bit of insight into Malayali culture and class prejudices. Anyway story's about a religious house-servant who falls in love with the grandson of her employer. Or really, the grandson falls in love with her. It's a personal favorite of mine and stars Navya Nair (who is soo underrated) and Prithviraj (who is not, which is to say he's hella popular and currently trying his hand at directing)
Meesa Madhavan (2002) A thief gets wrongfully accused of a crime and tries to prove his innocence ft a romance. It's classic 2000s Malayalam comedy. Features Dileep and Kavya Madhavan who were a pretty popular pair of the 2000s/2010s even and irl had an affair and he divorced his wife for her. (his wife incidentally is manju warrior who i mentioned above)
Classmates (2006) A school reunion unearths old hurts and hidden secrets. It's got everything; mystery, angst, romance, comedy, and an iconic soundtrack.
Notebook (2006) No this has nothing to do with the iconic Nicholas Sparks adaptation. It's about three college friends at an all-girls school and how they deal with one of them getting pregnant. The initial romance is SO cute. The song, one in particular is great. The execution is so-so but for a movie about teen pregnancy in 2006 Kerala, it's not bad. And I would consider it iconic.
****** manichitrathazhu (1993) It's about a couple who move into a new house and the wife gets possessed by a ghost. It's ICONIC. I didn't mention it above because it does dip into horror and you said you didn't like scary movies.
i know this might seem super large and overwhelming. I promise I did try to limit the choices a bit and was at times more or less successful. Anyways I hope it helps some.
Wow, thank you for the explanation and for the long list of recs! Love all the different language categories. Lol! I wish I liked horror movies more, especially so you could share your favs 😆. I might try Manichitrathazhu 🫣. Maybe my friend who loves horror movies will watch it with me.
I'm looking at some of these on Google, and omg, Kabhie Kushi Kabhie Gham is 3.5 hours long 😳. I'll have to settle in with a snack for that one 😆.
These all sound really good though! Thank you for taking the time to compile this list, I highly appreciate it!

Rewatching Devdas
I feel like I can never say enough about this movie. Every time I watch it I find something new to admire. I am always stunned by the aesthetic of it. Every choice feels deliberate, the sets, the costumes, the use of color - every frame like a painting. The editing is tight. I love Bollywood movies, but you could cut 40 minutes out of most of them without impacting the story, and that's not true of Devdas. The choreography is insanely good. It's quite simply a cinematic masterpiece.
Shah Rukh Khan's performance as the tragically doomed Devdas is worth the price of admission alone, but the rest of the cast are also at the top of their game. Aishwarya Rai is so ethereal it makes each emotional blow she suffers hit even harder. Madhuri Dixit, Kirron Kher & Jackie Shroff all give standout performances; I appreciate them more with every watch.
This movie is like a college course in visual storytelling. The images linger in the mind - Paro's futile dash for the gate at the end, the wedding procession and, my particular favorite...
Morey Piya
Ah, this scene! In my opinion, one of the hottest ever put on film. And shot in a way that leaves you wondering if it's all a dream. While it leaves the viewer with no doubt about what's going on, it does it all through suggestion. I love the way Bollywood elevated this into almost an art form. I far prefer it to the Hollywood version, which always shows rather than tells. Letting the audience use their imagination is practically unheard of in movies today.
This scene also showcases the qualities that make Shah Rukh a star. HIs magnetism, the gentle playfulness, and also his strength and that danger that lurks just under the surface. You see it all here. I don't know if I've ever wanted to be a character in a movie as much as I want to be Aishwarya Rai in this scene.
My personal Top 5 Shah Rukh Khan movies is always evolving, but every time I watch this one it moves up a notch. Even the tragic ending is gradually growing on me. The way Paro reacts, after having apparently moved on and accepted her fate, completely going to pieces when she learns the love of her life is breathing his last at her door.
If you haven't seen this movie, stop what you are doing and go watch it now. And if you've seen it, watch it again. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Jazbaat - Chapter 1
Warning: Smut, language, 18+
As Abrar watches himself in the mirror, he sees not just his reflection but also the reflection of his past marriages. Each crease of his coat, each polish on his shoes, carries a memory of vows spoken, promises broken, and hearts left wounded. The familiar preparation ritual is a stark reminder of the love he once held and lost.
Abrar’s thoughts drift to his first marriage, filled with youthful passion and dreams of forever. He remembers the joy of young love and the excitement of building a life together. But soon, reality crept in, and their dreams shattered, leaving a trail of bitterness and regret.
His second marriage was born out of loneliness and a longing for companionship. He sought solace in the arms of another, hoping to find the love he had lost. Yet, despite his efforts, the void within him remained unfilled, leaving him more lost than ever.
Now, as he prepares for his third marriage, Abrar is filled with a mix of hope and apprehension. Will this union be different? Will he finally find the love and happiness he has been searching for? Or is he doomed to repeat the mistakes of his past?
As his coat is adjusted and his shoes are polished, Abrar feels a knot of uncertainty tighten in his chest. How many more marriages will it take to fill the void left by her? How many more vows will he have to make before he finds the one that sticks?
As Abrar exhaled, his vision shifted, and he was transported back to when he was twenty years old.
He was sitting on freshly mowed grass, the summer sun casting a warm, gentle light around him. He turned his head to the left and saw her sitting next to him—Aparna. Her eyes were closed, and her head was tilted upwards as she breathed in and out, her chest rising and falling in a mesmerizing rhythm.
Being with Aparna was unlike anything else Abrar had ever experienced. Everything seemed to fade away in her presence, including his life struggles and the challenges of his family’s circumstances. With her, everything felt right. She was his anchor, his solace, the one who made everything okay.
As Abrar watched her, a wave of emotions washed over him. He felt a deep sense of peace and contentment that everything was as it should be. At that moment, he knew that as long as he had Aparna by his side, he could face anything life threw at him.
Aparna opened her hazel eyes and looked at him, the look tugging at his heartstrings. A wide smile spread across her face as she slowly raised her eyebrow at Abrar.
‘What is going on in your brain, my Abrar?’ She asked him in her honey-like voice. Abrar just smiled and gestured that he was gazing at the most beautiful angel.
Born mute, Abrar had always felt self-conscious about his condition. But Aparna had made sure he never felt ashamed of it. She smiled playfully and pushed him away, but Abrar quickly caught her wrist, bringing it to his lips. He kissed her wrist gently, his touch feather-light, and slowly traced a path up her arm to her neck. He kissed her behind the ear, savouring the moment and their love.
Aparna’s breath hitched at his touch, and she sighed softly. She turned to face him, her eyes filled with love and desire. Abrar looked into her eyes, and at that moment, he knew he was home. He leaned in slowly, capturing her lips in a tender kiss.
The kiss deepened, and passion flared between them. Abrar’s hands roamed her body, memorizing every curve and every contour. Aparna moaned softly, her hands tangling in his hair as she pulled him closer. They lost themselves in each other, the world fading away around them.
They were breathless and flushed with desire as they finally broke the kiss. Aparna looked into Abrar’s eyes, her love shining brightly. She whispered, “I love you, Abrar. You’re the only one for me.” Abrar leaned in again, capturing her lips in another tender kiss, silently conveying that she was his everything without saying a word.
Abrar’s reverie was interrupted by a knock on the door, bringing him back to the present. He blinked, the memories of Aparna fading as he focused on the task at hand. He straightened his coat and adjusted his tie, steeling himself for his third marriage.
Somewhere else
Aparna descended from the plane, stepping onto the bustling tarmac of the airport. She took a deep breath of the familiar air, her gaze sweeping over the passing scenery as she rode in a car towards her destination. The cityscape looked different yet oddly familiar, reminding her of the years she had spent here, growing up and away from everything she once loved and cared for.
At a young age, Aparna was faced with a difficult decision. It was a choice that had changed the course of her life, leading her down a path she never imagined she would take. Despite the hardships and sacrifices, she didn’t regret her decision. It had been the right choice for her at the time, but it had come at a cost—the loss of a love she had cherished deeply.
As the car moved through the streets, Aparna’s thoughts drifted back to those days. She remembered the turmoil, uncertainty, and fear of the unknown that had plagued her mind. But she also remembered the strength and courage she had found within herself, the resilience that had carried her through the most challenging times.
Her thoughts were interrupted by a voice from the front. “Seems you are lost in your own world, Aparna,” Abid’s voice brought her back to the present. It was no surprise to her when she was invited to the wedding, not just any wedding, but Abrar’s third wedding. She shook her head, a wry smile playing on her lips, wondering how in the world he managed to marry three times and still keep his other wives.
Years had passed since she had any contact with Abrar and his family. It was a surprise when she met Abid, Abrar’s brother, who had insisted she visit and stay with them for some time. She had been close with him, but not as close as Abrar. And so, here she was, returning to a place that held both bittersweet memories and the possibility of new beginnings.
“I’m just relaxing, Abid,” she whispered, her voice barely audible over the car’s hum. She leaned back against the seat, closing her eyes and letting her mind wander back to the past.
Her thoughts were clouded by the image of her and Abrar, tangled in each other’s arms, making love inside the garage. It had been the night before her departure, the night she had promised to return but had not done so until now. The memory was vivid, every touch and caress etched into her mind as if it had just happened yesterday.
‘Abrar’ Aparna whimpered as she felt herself going to peak again for like third time, her chest heaved and her core twisted with the pleasure she never experienced before.
She writhes against his touch as he squeezes her hips and makes sure to open her legs as wide as he can. She tries to squirm away, the sensation being too much pleasurable, but Abrar doesn’t leave much room for it.
Her thighs tremble as she whines. The feeling is too much for her, and she spills herself, her sweetness coating his tongue as he laps down, not leaving anything behind.
As he raised his head and watched her come down from the ultimate pleasure he had just given her, he licked his lips as he slowly raised, kissing her thighs and going up. She moaned as she looked at him; his eyes never left her, and shyness overtook her as she covered her face with her hands.
But Abrar chuckled as he kissed the valley between her breasts. He grabbed her by the chin and forced her to look at him.
As always, his eyes spoke everything his lips couldn’t, and both their lips crashed, a hungry and heated kiss that took away each other’s breath; her legs automatically wrapped around his hips as she felt his tip touching her entrance, and he pushed, causing them to moan into each other mouth as he buried himself to the hilt inside her wetness as she cried out his name again.
His hands slowly moved and cupped her breast as he playfully tugged her nipples; she arched her back as each push caused her to feel the stars.
Abrar is wholly lost in Aparna as she clings to him and buries her face into his neck as he slots his hips against hers in brutal force. Her toes curled, and her head fell back as she helplessly did nothing but scream his name again and again. His eyes went down as he saw them joining, where his cock met her insides as he increased the pace and loved the feeling of her squeezing him; she was made for him by the gods. As she reached her peak, he fucked her cunt through it spilling his seeds inside her as she milked his cock.
As they both came down from their high, they lay there, not caring about the outside world but always wanting to be with each other.
Aparna had left with a heavy heart, torn between her love for Abrar and her chosen path. She had promised to return, reunite with Abrar and start a new life together. But as the years went by, life took its course, and she found herself drifting further and further away from him.
As she returned to the city where it all began, Aparna couldn’t help but wonder what awaited her. Would Abrar still be the same man she had loved and lost? Would he have moved on, as she had tried to do? The unanswered questions lingered in her mind as she embarked on this journey back to her past.
