Ayan Sharma and Sara Mishra fall in love in their first semester of engineering college in Bhubaneswar-the kind of love that makes you forget the world exists. Wild, reckless, all-consuming.
But love at nineteen doesn't come with warnings. A public fight. A suspension from college. Families torn apart by shame. Everything they built... shattered in a single day.
On the banks of the Daya River, they make a promise that sounds like beautiful madness:
Wait five years. No contact. No letters. Just faith.
If our love is real, we'll find our way back.
The world calls them crazy. Friends say they'll forget. Families demand they move on.
Then, after 1,825 days of silence, a message arrives:
It has been 5 years. Let's meet at the same place, same date, same time.
He returns to Bhubaneswar, his heart a war between hope and terror. Did she hold on the way he did? Did she fight for them the way he did? Or has time done what everyone promised it would-turned their promise into nothing but a beautiful memory?
What he finds will either prove that devotion conquers all or that some loves, no matter how fierce, aren't meant to survive.
Inspired by true events, You Before Everything is not a story about moving on. This is about holding on when the entire world tells you to let go.
