Rose

At 15, Rose found out she was going to have a baby. The boy she had been close to didn’t hurt her, but the reason behind everything was never talked about. Feeling heartbroken and confused, Rose left without saying much and was gone for two years. During that time, someone new came into her life—Arnav. He was kind, caring, and helped her raise the baby with love and support. Over time, Rose grew to trust and love him. Now 17, Rose returns to school with her little one by her side. Everything feels different… until she sees someone from the past—the child’s real father. The baby runs to him with a big smile. Rose stays calm, but her eyes don’t hide the pain. She simply says, “I’m marrying Arnav when I turn 18.” Some feelings are hard to forget.
