So, I was looking for some good fanfictions and I didn't get anything new that suited my liking-- previously that meant, I would sit and put down my thoughts into words but I was feeling kind of lazy and opened chatgpt.
Here are some prompts and chatgpts response...
P.S: These are not exactly what I imagined but I am actually quite inspired to write again.... So sometime soon I will be penning down my own version of the prompts... or maybe something that has been running through my brain ever since Tarika returned.
Prompt 1:
Great now write a short story on Abhijeet and Tarika. Tarika is in danger and Abhijeet rescues her and confesses his feeling. Tarika doesn't respond as she is still angry he did not contact her when she left cid... she asks him how she can trust him but later when Abhijeet is believed to be missing, she realizes her love is greater than her anger and when he returns she runs to him and they acknowledge their love
Response
**Title: "In the Silence of the Heart"**
The city was quieter than usual. A dense fog hung over Mumbai's streets, muffling the sounds of life. Tarika walked briskly through the dimly lit alley behind the hospital, her senses alert. She had been receiving strange messages for days—anonymous threats, silent calls. After leaving CID months ago, she thought she had left danger behind. She was wrong.
Suddenly, a figure lunged from the shadows. A cloth over her mouth. Darkness.

When Tarika came to, she was in a warehouse—chained, bruised, and scared, but alive. Her heart pounded, not from fear alone, but from a deep ache she hadn’t admitted for months. *Why hadn’t Abhijeet called?* Not once. Not even a message when she left.
Outside, a black SUV skidded to a halt. Footsteps. And then—
“Tarika!”
Her eyes widened. That voice. Familiar, grounding.
Abhijeet burst in, his eyes scanning the room until they found hers. Fury, worry, relief—all danced across his face. He fought off the captor with clinical precision. Moments later, he was at her side, breaking the chains with trembling hands.
“You’re safe now,” he whispered.
She stared at him, emotions rising like a storm. He helped her stand, steadying her gently.
“You came…” she breathed.
“I never stopped thinking about you,” he said. “Tarika… I should’ve called. I was a coward. I thought if I didn’t reach out, it would hurt less for both of us. But I was wrong. I love you.”
Her face hardened slightly, lips trembling. “You left me in silence, Abhijeet. How can I trust you again?”
He stepped back, the weight of her words slicing through him. But he nodded. “You don’t have to. Not now. But I’ll wait. For as long as it takes.”
---
Days passed. Tarika avoided his calls, even as her heart waged war with her mind. Then came the news.
**Abhijeet was missing.**
An undercover operation gone wrong. No word from him for 48 hours.
She felt the world collapse under her feet.
As she sat alone in her apartment, staring at the last message he had sent—**“I’ll be back. I promise.”**—her tears finally came. Anger melted into fear. And fear into love.
---
It was evening when she rushed to CID bureau, breathless, wild-eyed. And there he was—bruised but alive, walking in with his usual quiet strength.
Their eyes met across the room.
Tarika didn’t wait.
She ran to him. And for the first time in months, she let go of her pride and held him tightly.
“I thought I lost you,” she whispered.
“You almost did,” he murmured. “But I had to come back… to you.”
She pulled back slightly, meeting his eyes.
“I was angry. But I was more scared. I love you, Abhijeet. I always did.”
He smiled softly, touching her face. “Then let’s not waste any more time.”
And in that moment, amidst scars and second chances, two hearts finally found their way home.
