Where We Left Our Hearts~
Episode 1
One fine day, the market was crowded—noise everywhere, people moving in every direction
？？？
(walked beside his mother)
The entire market was beautifully decorated, and she looked around happily, taking it all in.
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(walked a few steps ahead, then turned back to look at him)
？？？
(wearing a mask, his expression clearly irritated)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(frowned)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Again with the mask? You’ve put it on once more ಠಿ_ಠ
？？？
You don’t know how many harmful germs are present in the dust outside ❄️
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Yes, don't lie, I know that you wear this mask because you feel that if you go out without a mask, girls will fall here after seeing you..hana? ಡ ͜ ʖ ಡ
？？？
Mumma, these are precautions, look around you, how unhygienic this place is.. (个_个)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(sighed dramatically)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Ever since you became a doctor, your tantrums have increased a lot (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ
？？？
Maa, I’m not just a doctor. I’m a surgeon..┐(￣ヘ￣)┌
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Chal chal, Don’t try to teach me..ಠ益ಠ
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Now follow me ❄️
？？？
(followed her reluctantly)
？？？
Why did you even need to come here today? ❄️
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Because this Janmashtami ❄️ (mocking him)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
I want to do the shopping for Lord Krishna myself ( ꈍᴗꈍ)
？？？
Then why did you bring me along? You could’ve brought someone else...(￣ヘ￣;)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(turned sharply)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Walk quietly, or I’ll slap you in front of everyone. Would you like that? ❄️
She stopped in front of a shop..
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Yes, this one. This is where I’ll buy clothes for Lord Krishna..
？？？
Okay, You go inside and shop. When you’re done, call me. I’ll stay right here..❄️
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Yes, stay right here. Don’t go anywhere..→_→
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(went inside the shop)
？？？
(stood outside, looking around absent-mindedly)
That’s when he noticed a girl crossing the road— completely unaware. A car was speeding toward her..
Without thinking, he rushed forward, grabbed her hand, and pulled her back.
???
(stumbled and collided with his chest, startled, her eyes clenched shut)
???
(opened her eyes and looked up at him)
For a moment, he didn’t know why—but he got lost in her eyes..
???
(looking at him with a confused expression)
？？？
(appeared a small smile on lips behind the mask)
???
(gently pushed him away)
???
T...Thank you...(softly)
???
(covered her face with dupatta)
？？？
(snapped back to reality)
？？？
Where was your attention? How were you crossing the road like that? If I hadn’t come in time, something could’ve happened..❄️
???
I..I’m sorry...(replied quietly)
Suddenly, two guards rushed toward her..
Singhania's guards
Are you okay, miss? (worried)
???
(nodded lightly and walked toward a car parked nearby)
The guards followed her..
？？？
(stood there, still watching her as she left)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(came out of the shop and noticed him)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
I told you to stay right there, What are you doing here? Σ(ಠ_ಠ)
？？？
Nothing...(still staring ahead)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(Followed his gaze)
And saw the girl get into the car and drive away..
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(looked back at him)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Oye!!
？？？
Haan? What happened? ❄️
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
That’s what I’m asking, What happened to you? ಠಿヮಠ
？？？
Nothing… just that girl-
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Which girl? (raised an eyebrow)
？？？
Nothing..(said quickly)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
!?
？？？
Forget it. Come on, are you done shopping? ❄️
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
No!! (replied immediately)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
I still have a lot more to buy. Come, hurry up (◔‿◔)
？？？
This is exactly why I don’t come shopping with you...It never ends.(눈‸눈)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Keep quiet, Or I’ll leave you right here and go.❄️
？？？
Why do you threaten me over everything? ಠಗಠ
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
My wish¯\_ʘ‿ʘ_/¯
？？？
(shook his head and walked ahead)
His mother glanced once more in the direction the car had gone—
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(followed him)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Baby... listen to me ...
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Is that girl beautiful? (◍•ᴗ•◍)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
ᕙ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕗ Means Yes?
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Aree bata Na...(☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞ (followed him)
(Tell me na..)

Episode 2
My son may appear rude to the world…but I know how soft his heart truly is.
It has been almost a month since that day. The day I came home and told everyone how my son had frozen for a moment after seeing a girl.
Since then—every occasion at home, everyone together keeps teasing him about it.
He never says anything. Just smiles quietly. But I am his mother— I can see the change in his eyes. Whenever that girl is mentioned..
His reactions shift…subtly, but clearly. He never said it out loud. But he didn’t need to.
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
My son has already given his heart away. And as a true mother it becomes my duty to try to fulfill every happiness of my child...(≧▽≦)
Especially when I know nothing will happen if I leave it to him alone...
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
So I became a spy mom..(⌐■-■)
And how did I find all the details?
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Because my sharp eyes had caught the number of that car that day. That’s where the story truly began.ᕙ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)ᕗ
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(hugged her husband)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Thank you so much, my children’s father..( ˘ ³˘)♥
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
For you, my love, I can do at least this much...( ◜‿◝ )♡
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
If you hadn’t helped me, I might never have been able to find her...
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
With me around, you don’t need to worry. And anyway, we have our children they’ll take our worries for us..(｡•̀ᴗ-)✧
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(laughed lightly)
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
But the Singhanias…?
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Yes. Kritika Singhania’s daughter...(ʘᴗʘ✿)
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
That woman is quite dangerous, you know..
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
I don’t care about her I only want her daughter—for my son..(◍•ᴗ•◍)
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
( in mind: Lagta hai bete ke pyaar mein hum sab ki bali chada degi yeh aurat (╥﹏╥) )
(It seems this woman will sacrifice all of us for the love of her son)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
What?!
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
I..I was thinking about what if they say no?
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Then we’ll shake the entire Singhania Mansion, but we will bring our Bahu (daughter-in-law) home...(⌐■-■)
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
You sound obsessed..⊙.☉
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
Yes, I am..( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Siddharth Ahuja/Ml's Father
( in mind: Sometimes I feel like I married a mafia woman always ready with a plan for war ಥ‿ಥ)
Preeti Ahuja/ Ml's Mother
(in her own world)

Episode 3
The operating theatre is quiet. Not silent—just focused...
Every beep has a meaning. Every second carries weight. Here, I don’t exist as a man...
？？？
People say doctors are next to God. They fold their hands in front of us. They look at us with hope, fear, desperation ❄️
But they forget one thing— We are human too. My hands save lives, yes… but they tremble sometimes.
？？？
My decisions change destinies, yes…but I still make mistakes and those mistakes…they stay with you longer than the successes ❄️
I’ve learned to keep my emotions outside this room. Because if I let them in—someone on this table might lose their life.
That’s my reality. The surgery ends. Successful.
Relief passes through me— quietly. No celebration...
？？？
Just a responsibility fulfilled.. ❄️
I change my clothes. White coat off. Mask discarded. Surgeon gone...
Sathvik Ahuja/[ML]
Now I’m just… Sathvik...❄️
People think we doctors live sorted lives. Money. Respect. Stability.
Sathvik Ahuja/[ML]
But what they don’t see is the loneliness between shifts ❄️
The nights that don’t end. The weight you carry home. I step out of the hospital. The air feels heavier.
Sathvik Ahuja/[ML]
I smoke sometimes. Only my dad knows. Not because I’m addicted— but because sometimes the stress needs an outlet ❄️
Because saving lives every day doesn’t leave much space to save your own peace...
I crush the cigarette under my shoe before it finishes..Enough...
The parking lot welcomes me like an old friend. And there she is—
Sathvik Ahuja/[ML]
People have obsessions. Mine has two wheels and an engine. Riding clears my mind...❄️
The road doesn’t judge. The speed doesn’t ask questions. On the bike, I don’t have to be perfect. I just have to move forward.
I start the engine..The sound settles something inside me...
Sathvik Ahuja/[ML]
I don’t believe in destiny...Never have. I believe in logic...In science...In probability...❄️
But then explain this— Why does her face appear every time I close my eyes?
Why did one look shake me more than years of training ever did?
I don’t know her name...Her story...Her world. And still—
It feels like something shifted
the moment I pulled her back from that road.
Sathvik Ahuja/[ML]
Maybe it wasn’t destiny...Maybe it was just…a moment that refused to be forgotten..❄️
I tighten my grip on the handle. Whatever this is— it doesn’t make sense.
And yet…For the first time in my life,I’m not searching for an explanation. I ride home.
With questions I don’t want answered. And a feeling I’m not ready to let go of...
He never believed in love. For him, emotions were a weakness—something that distracted people from purpose, discipline, and control. Calm on the surface and guarded within, he had built his life around logic, never imagining that fate would pull him into something he never planned.
