She was all he ever wanted, needed and craved in his life, a desire after years of compromising, and he was all she ever lost, let go of and pushed away from herself after years of desperate craving for him.

Love, that's what Ekaksh Raichand knew he had for his best friend's little sister, and yet he couldn't stop her from going away from him. He couldn't keep her with himself even though she was the sole reason he started believing in love and life again.

He lost her.

But this time, he didn't lose just her, not just a person, but he also lost the meaning of his life. The person who gave him a purpose to live when he was fighting with himself, the person who jumped into his life with a jar filled with fireflies to light up his world when he was drowned so deep in the darkness of his past that he couldn't see a hint of light, the same person pushed him away.

After teaching him the meaning of love, she became the one to snatch it away from him and left.

Leaving him broken, shattered and all alone.

And now, after a year and a half of their separation, she is back in the town where he is staying to fight off two of the most chronic illnesses ever known to mankind.

One of them is the heartbreak from the love you thought was eternal.

But, she is not alone this time. She is engaged to his business ally, one of the most influential, powerful and richest persons in the state of America, making her a forbidden fruit to him, whose craving he has never been able to stop ever since he had the first taste.

But does he care about the arrangements? In a way, yes he does.

She is not the same person anymore, nor is he. The girl who lived and breathed in the air of love, kindness and joy, has become allergic to all of it, while the man who loathed the mere thought of it all, has come to find them in every little thing around him.

They have nothing in common, just like before. And yet, they are fighting the same battle. Battle of hearts.

This time, they aren't fighting against each other, but instead, they are fighting for each other against themselves.

Forced in close proximity by destiny yet again, will they survive it this time?

Will their love be enough this time?

Who will win this battle?

Their hearts, or their minds?

The answer to these lies with them.

After all, he was always hers and she was his, to heal or to break, they belonged together.
