My Blank Love —

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOPmjUuePL

“The one who left… but took a piece of me with him.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkK2itlAjtS

“Zoboriya, what’s wrong with you?”

Safwan was matching her hurried steps, his voice trembling.

But it was as if Zoboriya couldn’t even hear him.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jPQKkj72C

It was the last afternoon on campus.

Sunlight melted across the tall university walls.

Tired eyes of students carried the weight of final submissions.

And Safwan’s eyes — they only held panic and a desperate longing.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgIS6ZV6s9

He wanted to stop her.

But Zoboriya just kept walking.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCptFPoRdTl

> “Where are you going?”

“Why are you leaving?”

“Just like that? Without saying a word?”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEeoTrfr8kh

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqJCKEBB30

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqYK2vh2ew

He grabbed her shoulders and turned her to face him.

His voice had grown louder — sharp, shaken.

Some students nearby turned to look.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1GLHh8MkD

> “Behave yourself, Safwan!”

Zoboriya’s voice was firm — but trembling.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80b8aCrfr4

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchGxeLF82O

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAFMSuifos

She pulled herself free, taking a step back.

Her face showed no anger — just a quiet exhaustion.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4hr6ius8r

“Why are you leaving?”

Safwan’s voice had cracked by now.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDr5Sjh4Df

Zoboriya lowered her eyes.

For a moment, there was only silence between them.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGUOLScz1X

Then softly, she said:

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9sRepJThZ

> “Because even while staying here… I was never whole, Safwan.”

“And now I have to return to the place where I lost myself.”

Safwan asked.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMtAs89J3E

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaoGDtgvv3

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZArmYmPqm

Zoboriya looked up —

but there was no apology in her gaze. Just truth.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWCFlZDmj9

> “Yes,”

“But not to find him… to find myself.”

“Even without him near me… I could never be away from him, Safwan.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PNsoAcxyv

Safwan’s eyes welled up —

but he didn’t want to appear weak in front of her.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsLu5Ti8xP

He nodded, then quietly said:

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6QGbuHAXG

> “I could never include your name in any of my prayers, Zoboriya…”

“Maybe that’s why… you were never written in my destiny.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡny17rcloNk

Zoboriya gave a faint smile —

a smile filled with love… and a quiet farewell.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yFrmCmb8W

> “You were my most beautiful silence, Safwan…”

“But now, I need to say something — to myself.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX3H3Al5Jx

She walked away without looking back.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoWZkL1cPl

Left behind stood a boy —

who wouldn’t remain in her story like a name,

but would linger like an unfinished letter…

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oFryZubRv

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3BP3zpRIR

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83geQTfmfT

Zoboriya was returning to India.

To that city where her parents once filled her evenings with warmth.

She didn’t know if she would meet Abu Zarr again.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0eFFdBJab

But this time, it wasn’t about someone’s presence —

it was about meeting her own soul.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyocPL9lHd6

> What she didn’t know…

was that Safwan had begun to love her,

and now he felt like everything inside him… was breaking.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTgQScNW5M

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡku6N5reik8

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT21uvb6DBI

> “You’re ending my love here, Zoboriya…”

he whispered to himself with trembling lips.

My Blank Love — Part Four

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEKGbyr7eq

“Where it all ended… that’s where it began again.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0bS3ugeKh

The winters in Turkey were quieter this year.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEp9vXdHfX

Zoboriya had decided to leave the university —

but before going,

she wanted to visit that old building one last time.

The place where her last unspoken words with Abu Zarr still lingered.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUvxWCgJr9

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuY4RQfGlT

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADmeoXNr5t

Behind the library, there was an old wooden bench.

Right next to it —

a tea seller still lit his stove every evening.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6Msjf3WxC

Zoboriya stood there again.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID3pafF4Mm

The air smelled familiar —

like paper, fading sunlight… and that tea

Abu Zarr used to bring for her without ever being asked.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u3B6yQmHN

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwmp9nwhqt

---

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CQ9G5deVc

She turned around.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLZnpyQIY1

And there…

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmyWqY0VaC

on the very same bench, someone sat.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AzYjasc4X

Head bowed,

holding that same old book

— the one where Abu Zarr used to fold a page and leave it silently.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDej5uQhmZs

His hair was longer now,

a shawl wrapped around his shoulders,

and those eyes —

those eyes were frozen in the memory of that moment.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DiOawpDNh

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV63jVtauU8

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZTei0YS07

Zoboriya held her breath.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJH01zf6GSk

> “Abu Zarr?”

she whispered —

as if trying to convince herself it was real.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8gQapcclY

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhSCD4ib5N8

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50S5lKGqOf

The boy stood up.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQn5ZNW9A7

Slowly, he walked toward her.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwwqa1pefX

Still silent.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEDUnk0tR4

But in his eyes, the same old sentences floated…

the ones he never got to speak.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZYWhnW1Ex

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb8eX9bWgW

---

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZzuk7agNC

> “You… here?”

Zoboriya asked,

her eyes swimming with a thousand questions… and answers.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqIFjZcTiv

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSfhN17BF1

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFx1cv66Q9

Abu Zarr lowered his head and said softly:

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiK73QoGT0c

> “I thought you would really leave.”

“But this time… I won’t run anymore.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD15lAyBlt

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqhoRPzMmP

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOm9xeOKWt

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRj3oIhYnX

Abu Zarr’s voice cracked like an old page:

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiSiEgk39i

> “Because I had nothing to offer you.

But the waiting in your eyes…

I couldn’t bear to break it.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCUBp0v456

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPv073mTVLQ

He wanted to say more —

but Zoboriya stopped him.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN9VS8L6Kn

> “Just answer one thing, Abu Zarr…”

“Do you still… read me?”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWc4PKIdw3r

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0LJqnDobL

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktieyCRRpy

Abu Zarr smiled — faintly.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FwCQFiTy1

> “I never stopped reading you, Zoboriya.”

“You lived inside me every day — only my voice got lost.”

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIFe403fkD

This time…

she said nothing.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbh86CH5lF2

She simply stood beside him.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0GLeyZcZ5p

There was no distance now —

not in words, not in love.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaioNgq13U3

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6AdFl5b83

Then suddenly, a sharp gust of wind blew.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9p3fGV0wC7

Zoboriya blinked —

and the world around her changed.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYhxBQt9DS

She wasn’t with Abu Zarr.

42Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDzGUurH33

She was alone, standing near that empty bench.
