You look exhausted... when was the last time someone took care of you?

[kevinUsa]

Hi, nenu 29F, married, Texas lo vuntanu. Na husband chala decent person, but manam 2/3 different worlds lo untam. Conversations dry ayyayi, connection slow ga fade ayyindhi. Nenu office lo busy avthunna, ayana home-office madhyalo trap ayyadu. Appudu entry ayyadu Kiran (fake name), 32M, my senior. First few weeks just professional talk. But gradually, our conversations turned personal...food, family, dreams, regrets. Nenu laugh cheyyadam marchipoyina time lo, ayana malli na laugh ni

tippinchadu. Oka late Friday, project review tarvatha office lo only we both were left. He said, "You look exhausted... when was the last time someone took care of you?" Na throat lo words daggipoyayi. That line was dangerous, but kind. That night I couldn't sleep peacefully. Next few days lo texts start ayyayi. Like "Had lunch?" "You looked lost today." Chinna chinna messages, but mind lo big storm create chesayi. Meetings lo accidental touches,

long eye contact, silent moments. These emotions fire laga perigayi. Oka weekend work trip came up - to conference. Team lo five members, kani last moment three cancelled. Only me and him travelled. Journey lo casual talk start ayyindhi, but hotel lo check-in tarvatha, silence became louder. Dinner lo ayana just said, "Let's not pretend we don't feel it. A line lo honesty undedhi, guilt kuda. Nenu chusthe ayana eyes lo same confusion kanipinchindhi. We didn't cross limits that night, but we both knew the line was blurred already. Every minute together felt

like borrowed time. I know it's wrong, but irresistible. Ippudu nenu torn-ga vunnanu. Na husband ki edhi telusthe anni destroy ayyayi, kani Kiran ni ignore cheyyadam possible kaadhu. Every message, every glance feels like a secret I shouldn't have, but can't let go of either. Sometimes nenu mirror mundhu nannu chusthe, question osthundhi.. Is this love born out of loneliness? Or lust disguised as care? Na manasu lo rendu voices fight chesthunayi..oka side guilt, inko side desire. Should I walk away before it's too late... or take one step further and risk everything?
