His New Neighbour

She was the kind of girl who could turn an ordinary night into something unforgettable.

Some people enter your life like a whisper. Arohi arrived like a spark.

Light. Fire. Absolute wonder.

She doesn’t ask for permission. She steals Rohit's hot chocolate, wakes him by screaming in his ear, pulls him into unexpected adventures, and holds his hand as though it's absolutely nothing.

Two neighbours. Two classmates. Two people who keep finding themselves under the same starry sky.

To the rest of the world, they’re just two people living next door. But behind closed doors and on quiet terraces, something is stirring between them, something neither of them knows how to name.

The closer Rohit gets, the more he realizes there’s a side of Arohi she never lets anyone see.

There are things she doesn’t talk about.

Things that make her afraid to trust even herself.
