Summary

BASED ON REAL LIFE Thrown together in their first internship at Veridian Estates, two opposites cross paths-both stubborn, both broken in their own ways, and both wanting life to bend to their rules. Aarohi hides her sensitivity behind indifference, while Kabir masks his emotional unavailability with nonchalance. Between deadlines, unspoken glances, and silent care, something begins to grow-something neither of them is ready to name. With a loyal best friend who always takes sides, a fading friendship, and dreams weighed down by expectations, this is a story of overthinking hearts, misplaced priorities, and love that arrives quietly... only to hurt loudly. Because sometimes, the people who feel the most are the ones who pretend they don't.

Introduction

Aarohi Mehta (19)

Aarohi found comfort in pages, not screens.

While the world escaped into movies and series, she escaped into books - underlined sentences, and quiet corners. Reading was her refuge, her way of surviving thoughts that never stopped running. She didn't care much for binge-watching; stories felt more real when held in her hands.

She loved cricket not loudly, not aggressively but with the same silent passion she carried for everything else. Matches played in the background while she read, heart syncing with every over. Aarohi was an overthinker to the core, super sensitive, and deeply emotional for the people close to her. To outsiders, she looked detached, like she didn't give a damn. In reality, she was a crybaby for her loved ones, breaking down in private and rebuilding herself in silence.

She wanted things done her was not because she was stubborn, but because control was her coping mechanism. Once someone mattered, they mattered too much. And that was her biggest flaw.

Kabir Khanna (19)

Kabir believed life should be simple—and preferably effortless.

A die hard Virat Kohli fan, cricket ran through his veins. He didn't just watch the game; he lived it. Playing cricket was his escape, his dream—but family pressure clipped those wings early. Somewhere between expectations and excuses, he stopped trying hard enough. Kabir had a habit of avoiding effort, hoping life would serve things on his plate instead of demanding struggle from him.

Studies never interested him, discipline never lasted, and responsibility often felt optional. Emotionally unavailable and nonchalant, Kabir wanted things done his way, without explanations or emotional confrontations. Movies were his comfort—stories that distracted him from reality. And yet, beneath his careless exterior, there was a boy who noticed Aarohi's silences, protected her quietly, and cared in ways he never admitted even to himself.

Rohan Malhotra (25)

Rohan had lived enough life to stop romanticizing struggle.

Older, a little wiser and far more practical, he had already switched careers once and wasn't afraid to do it again. He believed in logic over emotions and action over overthinking. Though mature, he was unapologetically biased—Kabir was his person, and he would always take his side, no matter what.

Rohan was the kind of man who believed things should make sense, and when they didn't, they weren't worth emotional chaos.

Ira Sharma (23)

Ira drifted away before anyone noticed she was leaving.

Once present and once talkative, she slowly withdrew into her own world. Always busy, always distracted, Ira stopped engaging conversations shortened, replies faded, and eventually, she stopped talking to everyone altogether.

She wasn't dramatic or confrontational. She simply chose distance, leaving behind silence and unanswered questions.

🏢 The Company

Veridian Estates Pvt. Ltd.

A rising real estate firm building its digital identity unaware that within its glass walls, egos would clash, hearts would attach, and silence would speak louder than words. It was never just an internship. It was the beginning of everything they weren't prepared for.

My Blacksmith Savior

Farial-Jap-Girl: なんて素敵で、予想もしなかった読書体験なんでしょう! これは間違いなく、ありきたりな恋愛小説ではありません。むしろ、そうじゃないことに感謝したいくらいです。登場人物たちがとてもリアルに感じられるんです。欠点があって、複雑で、情熱的で、人間らしい「白か黒かでは割り切れない」魅力的なグレーの部分に満ちています。怒りや支配、愛、そして怒りの赤い霧に飲み込まれそうになったときに、別の道を選ぶ可能性を描いているところも、とても好きでした。でも正直、一番の驚きは、この本がとにかく楽しく読めたこと! 作者はヒロインの声を見事に描き出していて、私はすっかり別の時代、別の場所へ連れ去られたような気分になりました...

jo987_123: This is a good story, but it needs a good editor to go through this iteration and fix the mistakes. The pov changes from 1st person to 3rd person, often, and sometimes within one sentence. It needs a liberal sprinkling of punctuation marks throughout, and a decision needs to be made about the char...
