Seeing the empty balcony, a small smile slowly appeared on her face
For once, she could breathe freely.
She moved lightly across the balcony as if the noise and chaos downstairs no longer existed. The distant sound of laughter and music faded behind her while happiness quietly revealed itself through her dance.
"I don’t care "
Rono's cold voice cut sharply through the phone call.
"But Sir..."
"I want that anyhow "
His jawline tightened and eyes sharp enough to make anyone silent standing before him.
Before the man on the other side could finish his word, Roni ended the call angrily.
Running his hand through his hair, he stepped out his room and froze.
Piya was dancing completely unaware of his presence.
There was no hesitation in her movements now. Every move was effortless.
From childhood, she had learned to hide her emotions, her wishes and even her happiness from other. But alone, she allowed herself to breathe freely - laughing softly, spinning beneath the warm lights as if the world had finally loosened its hold around her.
Her anklets created a soft, soothing rhythm in the silence.
Rono leaned quietly against the wall, crossing his arms. His eyes never left her.
A faint smile touched his lips.
Then suddenly, Piya turned around.
The moment her eyes met his gaze, she froze.
The smile vanished from her face instantly. Stepping back in panic, her bangles struck sharply against the wall and shattered. A thin cut appeared near her wrist.
Neither of them looked away.
Rono's gaze reminded fixed on her.
Her gaze was fearless. Yet something inside made her run away from there. A slight frown appeared on Rono's forehead as He kept watching her until she disappeared downstairs.
