Adultery Antarvasana: The Forbidden Fire – *** Varnika's First Surrender ***
Abhi (pressing his forehead to hers, softly):
“Are you really okay with me… getting closer to someone like Shruti?”



Madhavi (smiling, her fingers running along his jaw):
“Abhi… I’m not the kind of woman who worries about what someone else gets.”



Abhi (quietly):
“Then what do you care about?”



Madhavi (in a low, warm whisper):
“I only look at what I’ve already got. And I already got you. In a way only I understand.”
(pauses, her smile softening)
“So if you find more… if that makes you happy… I’m glad. I love you in a way that wants to see you get whatever you like. And get them, too.”



Abhi (his hands around her waist, his voice low near her ear):
“Madhavi… are you really okay with this? With Shruti coming over? I mean… after what happened between us... we crossed a line.”



Madhavi (smiling softly, but not dismissing it):
“Yes, we did. And I don’t regret a moment of it.”
(she turns in his arms, eyes steady)
“But that doesn't mean I want to put you in a box.”



Abhi:
“It just feels strange. You held me so close that night, and today you’re introducing me to another woman like you’re... setting me free.”



Madhavi (quietly, with emotion behind her words):
“I’m not setting you free, Abhi. You were never mine to keep caged. That’s not what love is for me.”
(she brushes her fingers across his cheek)
“You don’t belong to me. And I don’t want you to.”



Abhi (softly):
“Then why... why do you care so much?”



Madhavi (her voice dropping, serious now):
“Because I care about you. I care about what you feel, what you chase, what excites you. I’m not interested in owning your heart, Abhi. I want to know it. I want to see it full.”


(she pauses, stepping just a little closer, locking eyes)

“I don’t look at what someone else might get from you. I look at what I’ve already got—and what we’ve shared. And that’s enough for me to stand here, today, happy. Content.”


Abhi (gently, but struggling):
“You’re not scared I’ll… drift?”



Madhavi (smiling, a bit of pride in her tone):
“No. Because I know you’ll always remember who stood with you when no one else did. Who listened to your silences, not just your words. Who never asked to be your everything, but ended up being the first person you reach for.”


(she rests her forehead against his)

“I’m not fragile, Abhi. I’m not made of glass. I’m made of all the quiet strength you lean on. And if I see someone like Shruti catching your eye… I won’t pull you back. I’ll ask you—do you want her? And if you do… I’ll help you get her.”


Abhi (barely a whisper):
“Why?”



Madhavi (eyes shimmering):
“Because I love you in a way that has nothing to do with keeping you. I love you in a way that wants you to have everything you desire, even if it’s not me all the time. And if she makes your smile a little wider… that makes me happy too.”


(she pauses, brushing his lips lightly with her thumb)

“That night was ours. It will always be. But today? Today I want to see what makes you come alive again.”
