Partner Yoga Begins
They started with a Seated Back-to-Back Twist—legs crossed, spines aligned, arms interlocked. Their backs pressed together, warm and close.
Abhi could feel the gentle inhale of her breath against him, the soft, solid curve of her body fitting naturally to his.
As they twisted, slowly, their arms pulled in opposite directions, and he felt the tension in her muscles, her hand gripping his wrist lightly but firmly.
“Breathe into it,” she whispered, her cheek near his.
He could smell the faint citrus of her shampoo.
The closeness was intimate but calm, like two halves of a quiet storm.
Then came Double Boat Pose—both of them seated, facing each other, legs lifted and soles touching.
As they reached forward, palms pressing into one another, Abhi’s hands closed around hers.
Her fingers were smaller, softer than he expected—but strong.
It is first time Abhi actually touching her.
His fingers could feel the softness of her beautiful and slender fingers.
Her fingers felt like silk wrapped around quiet strength—delicate, yes, but with a surprising firmness, as though she carried intention in every gesture.
The warmth of her skin seeped into his palms, traveling up his arms like the slow pour of honeyed heat.
He hadn’t expected touch to feel this... personal.
Their grip was simple, part of the pose, yet the sensation lingered, tingling where skin met skin.
Abhi tried to focus on his breath, on the stretch in his hamstrings, on the posture—but his awareness kept circling back to the soft give of fingers, the quiet confidence in her hold.
Her thumb brushed his by accident—or was it?—and something fluttered in his chest, low and warm.
It wasn’t just yoga anymore. It was a conversation, a secret one, spoken entirely through hands.
For the first time in his life, he is holding the hand of a woman.
She smiled at him through their effort.
“Look at you,” she said, breath catching. “Doing better than I thought.”
“You mean without collapsing or staring?”
She laughed. “Both.”
Their knees trembled with the tension of balance, and as they slowly came back down, she leaned in, close enough that her forehead almost brushed his.
Their eyes met—and lingered.
