đź“– Words That Turn Wounds
Episode 2: In Every Blame, It Was Me
> "Aaliyan had one face for me,
Another for the world…
And a completely different one for his mother."
He claimed I belonged to him…
But there was never any truth in his words.
He was around me, yet never made me feel like I was his.
I kept trying to understand —
Maybe time would change him,
Or maybe my love would leave some mark.
But the accusations he hurled —
It was as if I was born guilty.
> "You're interested in someone else, Aaniya…"
And I was left wondering —
Did Aaliyan even know who I really was?
---
Two months ago…
When Aaliyan's proposal came,
There was peace on my family's faces.
He was educated, mature, financially stable.
His confidence convinced both my parents without hesitation.
He said:
> "I want you in my life, Aaniya…
I've never met anyone like you."
Then he shared his past himself —
That he'd been married twice,
But both women were "wrong choices" for him.
> "They didn't have what you do… you're different,"
he said, wrapping me in his web of certainty.
I thought —
Maybe someone would finally understand me,
Maybe I could start a new journey with someone.
But even in my silence, he found faults.
He measured me before I could even settle in.
---
In every new relationship, there's hesitation —
I had mine too.
But I tried to love him…
Day and night, I gave myself to him.
He never understood.
The moments we spent together were beautiful —
But even those memories faded.
I was bitter, but never disloyal.
I was quiet, but never a liar.
> Maybe love meant something else to Aaliyan…
And something else to me.
He gained my trust — only to abandon it.
And I… I kept waiting.
Begging him to stay…
But he walked away.
