It had started with silence.
Not the cold kind. Not the kind that trails behind slammed doors or unanswered messages. But the kind that hums beneath shared purpose. The kind that grows slowly, quietly, in the backstage of ideas—one blueprint, one dream, one impossible headline at a time.
In the quiet hours of early Geneva mornings, between espresso cups and scribbled agendas, Vihaan had begun to understand something he never did in Mumbai or Berlin: That not all music lives in melody. Some of it lives in movement. In mission. In watching someone you love light up a room not with performance, but with presence.
He'd never imagined that the same hands that once shaped soundscapes would be rearranging policy drafts or parsing through ethics clauses. Yet here he was—building decks instead of bridges between verses, arguing impact metrics instead of harmonies. But in those sterile conference rooms, in those high-stakes roundtables with ministers and skeptics and donors who believed more in trends than in truths—he found rhythm again.
Because she was there. Because she was the tempo.
Arpita was fire in diplomacy—measured, deliberate, and unshakably kind. She disarmed with a statistic. Softened hearts with a story. When she spoke, you leaned in—not just because of what she said, but because of what she meant.
And Vihaan—who had once measured success in applause—found a new kind of victory in watching her hold a room steady with nothing but poise and conviction.
She wasn't just his partner in this work. She was the woman he had once lost to distance, to timing, to fear. And now—somehow, impossibly—found again through intention.
But Geneva wasn't gentle.
It didn't care for backstories or quiet resilience. It didn't ask about scars before pointing to them.
The articles came first—clinical, sharp. Then the whispers, traveling through corridors and comment threads: Too young. Too ambitious. Too close.
And finally, the headline: "Healing or Hype? The Romance Behind Geneva's New Wellness Movement."
It hit like a slow bruise. Not just because it questioned the work—but because it reduced it. Because it took something sacred and reframed it as spectacle.
He saw it all from the sidelines—his usual position these days. Not out of detachment, but by design. He managed the noise, deflected the gossip, absorbed the backlash. So she wouldn't have to.
So she could speak in peace. So they could keep building without distraction.
But that night—on a quiet rooftop café, where the Alps rose around them like old gods and the wind carried the scent of lavender and espresso—something shifted.
