Life of Ilakiya : Chapter 16 : Lost Love

Anbu couldn't believe what was happening. He had been in a blissful relationship with Ilakiya for several weeks and everything seemed to be going great. They had recently returned from a romantic holiday at Genting Highlands and everything seemed perfect.
When he dropped her off at the station, he noticed a sudden change in Ilakiya's behavior. She was crying and refusing to say goodbye to him.
Anbu's heart sank as he walked away after dropping her off. He couldn't understand why she was acting this way.
After that, Ilakiya completely stopped speaking to him.
Anbu couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong and he didn't know what to do about it. 
Anbu's heart ached as he realized that Ilakiya was avoiding him. Thought of losing her made him feel lost and alone. 
At first, he tried to brush it off, thinking that she was just tired and needed rest, but as the days passed, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was seriously wrong.
He sent messages, but they weren't going through. He called her, but the calls either got cut off or declined. He could sense that the intimacy they had shared was gone
Anbu was at a loss. He couldn't understand why the woman he loved was pushing him away. He had tried to give her space, thinking it would help her open up to him, but it only seemed to make things worse.
Ilakiya became more distant and Anbu felt like he was losing her. He didn't know how to reach her or what to do to fix things. The thought of losing her was tearing him apart. He felt confused, hurt, and helpless in the face of her growing distance. He didn't know if he should try harder to reach her or if he should just let her go. The uncertainty was eating away at him and he didn't know how much longer he could take it.
He knew he needed answers, and he knew it was time to confront Ilakiya. He mustered up the courage to go to her college to talk to her in person.
He found her sitting alone on a bench, staring off into the distance.
Anbu: "Ilakiya, we need to talk. What's going on?"
Ilakiya: (sighing) "Anbu, I don't know what to say. I just need some space right now. And why are coming here to my college without informing?"
He was struck by disbelief and couldn't understand why the woman he loved was shutting him out.
Anbu's heart sank as he heard the coldness in her voice. He felt a sense of desperation creeping in as he tried to make her understand.
Anbu: "Space? What does that even mean? I don't understand what's going on. I thought things were going great between us. If you had responded to any of my messages, I wouldn't need to come like this."
Ilakiya: "I know, I'm sorry. It's just that, I've been going through some personal stuff and I need to focus on myself right now."
Anbu felt a sense of betrayal wash over him. He couldn't understand why she hadn't told him what was going on.
Anbu: "Personal stuff? Am I a stranger? Why didn't you tell me? I would have been there for you. I thought we were in this together."
Ilakiya: "Please understand. I just needed to figure things out on my own. Leave me alone."
Anbu: "I don't understand. Does this mean our relationship is over?"
Ilakiya: (tears welling up in her eyes) "Yes, I think so, Anbu. It's all meaningless."
Anbu felt his heart shatter as she spoke those words. He couldn't shake the feeling that he had lost the woman he loved. He watched her walk away, tears streaming down his face, feeling lost and alone.
He turned and walked away, a broken man. He couldn't understand why Ilakiya had shut him out, and he couldn't shake the feeling that he had lost the woman he loved forever.
