Chapter 4 - Characters

**ADRIJA PAUL**

Personality:

She is deeply sensitive—not weak, but emotionally aware in a way that makes her feel everything more intensely than others. Words linger in her mind, silence speaks louder than sound, and small changes never go unnoticed. She is a chronic overthinker, replaying conversations, imagining meanings that were never spoken, and blaming herself even when she's not at fault.

She loves softly but fears loudly. She pretends she's okay, but her heart is always searching for reassurance she never asks for.

Strengths:

Emotionally intelligent and empathetic

Loyal beyond limits

Patient and understanding

Values emotional connection deeply

Flaws:

Overthinks every situation

Takes words and silence personally

Afraid of being "too much"

ften chooses emotional pain over confrontation

Inner Conflict:

She knows she deserves clarity, yet she stays where confusion feels familiar. Her sensitivity makes her question her worth, especially in a love that isn't clearly defined.

**SIDDHARTH SHUKLA **

(Red Flag → Green Flag)

Personality:

To the world, he is a walking red flag—rude, emotionally closed off, distant, and intimidating. He doesn't care about people's opinions, speaks harshly, and keeps everyone at arm's length. Most see him as toxic, unapproachable, and cold.

But with her, he is different.

He is emotionally available only for her—always. No matter the time, mood, or situation, he shows up when she needs him. He listens when she overthinks, stays silent when she cries, and never makes her feel like her emotions are a burden.

"He is rude to everyone… except her."

Strengths:

Fiercely protective of her

Emotionally present when it matters

Loyal in actions, not words

Stays when things get hard

Flaws:

Emotionally closed to the rest of the world

Poor communication about commitment

Appears toxic from the outside

Struggles to express love verbally

Inner Conflict:

He doesn't know how to love publicly, but he loves privately with his whole heart. He fears that defining the relationship will change it—or ruin it—so he hides behind his rough exterior.

Red Flag or Green Flag?

He looks like a red flag.

He acts like a green flag—when it comes to her.
