"The person I love the most is fighting against the faith I once believed."
"The person I love the most… is the one who changed my entire world."
A Love Destined to Be
I(Sowmya) sat in tghe first row of the auditorium, my heart pounding in my chest. The crowd murmured in hushed voices; all eyes drawn toward the stage. But I wasn’t listening to them. My gaze was fixed on him.
Ajay.
He wasn’t like other men. There was something about him, something that made people stop and stare, something that made even the most confident individuals hesitate before speaking to him.
He was mysterious yet kind.
Serious yet innocent.
Distant yet unforgettable.
Even without trying, he had an undeniable presence. Girls adored him.
Professors admired him.
Even those who envied him couldn’t ignore him. There were stories about him everywhere…
"Ajay is unbelievably intelligent."
"He can answer any question, no matter how complex."
"Did you know he reads religious scriptures too? Not just the Bible, but the Bhagavad Gita, Quran, and even ancient texts!"
"He sees the world differently… like he's from another realm."
To some, he was an untouchable genius.
To others, he was an enigma.
To me… he was everything.
But my love story with him didn’t start here. It started long ago… before I even saw his face. Before I knew him, I loved him.
Love.
I had always believed in it. Not just the idea of romance, but the feeling of being completely connected to someone. A bond so deep that even fate itself couldn’t break it. I used to dream about a love that was pure, magical, and destined. But life wasn’t a fairy tale.
I saw relationships fall apart.
I saw people lose faith in love.
I saw how easily hearts could be broken.
So, I told myself that maybe love wasn’t meant for everyone. That’s when my faith became my anchor. I followed the words of my pastors. I believed in sacrifice and restraint.
Love before marriage was wrong.
Love for God should always come first.
But then, one day, my younger sister, Sanya Priya (Sunny), casually mentioned a name…
"Ajay sir is special, Akka!"
At the time, I didn’t care. I had no reason to. But his name stayed with me. It echoed in my mind like a forgotten melody. I had never seen him. I had never spoken to him. Yet, for some reason…
I felt something.
Something I couldn’t understand.
The First Time I Saw Him.
It happened in the cafeteria. The place was crowded and noisy, students rushing to grab their meals. But amid the chaos, my eyes landed on one person. He sat alone at a table, lost in a Mahwah.
A soft breeze lifted his hair, making the moment feel almost unreal. He didn’t look around. He didn’t try to be noticed. Yet, he was the most noticeable person in the entire room. I couldn’t even see his face properly that day. But I felt it. A strange pull toward him.
"Who is he?"
I told myself it was nothing. But destiny had already begun its work. Falling without realizing. Days turned into weeks. And somehow, Ajay became a part of my world.
Not through words. Not through interactions. But through the simple way he existed.
He never chased attention, yet people were drawn to him.
Girls from Team 4 and Team 6 constantly tried to get close to him. They competed, hoping one of them would win his heart.
But he remained untouched.
It was as if no one could reach him. And that made me wonder…
"Why is he different?"
That question turned into curiosity.
Curiosity turned into admiration.
And admiration… turned into love.
The struggle between Faith and Love.
Loving Ajay should have been simple. But for me, it wasn’t. Because my faith told me love before marriage was wrong.
I struggled.
I doubted.
I told myself that what I felt was a test. But every time I tried to suppress my feelings…
Ajay’s presence pulled me back. Not because he tried.
Not because he even noticed.
But because he was Ajay.
“A man whose mere existence made my heart surrender”
The Challenges That Awaited Us
Our journey was not smooth. There were obstacles.
Team 4 and Team 6 girls hated me, always testing me to see if Ajay truly cared.
Aarav, an arrogant rich boy, wanted me for himself, forcing himself into my life.
A stalker from Ajay’s past returned, bringing fear and uncertainty.
Ajay’s painful childhood was revealed, uncovering wounds deeper than anyone could imagine.
Through it all, I realized something.
“Love is not about finding the perfect person. Love is about finding someone who makes you feel whole”
And Ajay…
He was the missing piece of my soul.
Now, as I sat in the auditorium, I knew this was not just a moment in time. This was destiny in motion. I was about to witness something that would change everything. And through it all, there was only one truth that mattered…
I loved him. More than anything.
More than faith.
More than reason.
More than even, I could understand.
Because our love was never ordinary.
It was written in the stars.
It was an Enchanted Journey of Love. And “His Love Was So Eternal Even the Love Itself Fell in Love & Blushed.”
And it was only just beginning…
