In novel

💖 Aavari Kapoor

Age: 23

Personality: Kind-hearted, calm, and endlessly optimistic. Aavari is the type of girl who always sees good in others — even when they don’t deserve it. She carries a quiet strength, choosing understanding over anger, and forgiveness over hate.

Aavari lives with her father, stepmother, stepsister, and half-brother. Despite feeling like an outsider in her own home, she never lets bitterness take root. All she ever truly craves is parental love and belonging — something she’s been denied since childhood.

Believes small acts of kindness can change hearts.

Loves helping others and often forgets to think about herself.

Avoids conflicts but never loses her dignity.

Finds comfort in nature, books, and quiet moments.Smiles even when her heart aches — her way of keeping hope alive.

Soft features with expressive brown eyes that reflect warmth. Long black hair usually tied in a simple braid. Her style is modest yet graceful — pastel kurtis, floral prints, and a silver bracelet she always wears (her mother’s keepsake).

Behind her gentle smile is a girl who silently yearns — for love, acceptance, and a place where she’s not compared or judged. She dreams of a life where kindness isn’t mistaken for weakness.

“I don’t want revenge or pity… I just want to be loved, once, without condition.”

👔 Viraj Kapoor (Aavari’s Father)

Age: 57

A successful businessman who deeply loves his daughter and his late first wife. He remarried for Aavari’s sake, believing she needed a mother’s care.

💍 Kavita Kapoor (Aavari’s Stepmother)

Age: 55

Greedy, manipulative, and obsessed with wealth. Kavita was once a friend of Aavari’s mother and always envied her life.

After marrying Viraj, she pretends to be loving in his presence but secretly mistreats Aavari.

💄 Kavya Kapoor (Aavari’s Stepsister)

Age: 25

Arrogant, selfish, and self-obsessed — a mirror of her mother.

Kavya always compares herself to Aavari, taking whatever Aavari owns — from clothes to affection, even Aavari’s boyfriend.

She thrives on attention and jealousy, never satisfied with what she has.

📘 Raj Kapoor (Aavari’s Half-Brother)

Age: 19

Currently studying business in college.

Unlike his mother and sister, Raj has a neutral and fair nature. He dislikes Kavita and Kavya’s constant scheming against Aavari but often stays silent to avoid family conflicts.

Deep down, he respects Aavari’s goodness and innocence.

Naman Birla (Male Lead)

Age: 28

Cold, silent, and controlled — Naman speaks little, but his actions always carry weight. People often mistake his silence for arrogance, but in truth, he simply doesn’t know how to express emotions anymore.

He is known for his discipline, punctuality, and intimidating presence.

Always seen wearing gloves and a mask, even in personal settings. Sharp features, calm eyes that reveal nothing, and a voice that commands quiet respect.

Diagnosed with Selective Haphephobia at the age of eight — a condition where physical contact, especially from women, triggers panic attacks, fever, or physical pain.

“His body remembers what his heart tries to forget. ’’

His condition stems from deep emotional trauma — one that only his best friend Kartik Khurana fully knows.

🕯️ Family

Father: Lakshya Birla – A powerful businessman who remarried after his wife’s death. His love affair began even before his arranged marriage to Naman’s mother.

Naman’s respect for him vanished the day he realized his father’s betrayal had cost his mother her life.

Mother suhana (Late): A gentle woman who died of a heart attack on Naman’s fifth birthday — the same day she discovered her husband’s affair and his illegitimate child.

Stepmother: Vidhi Birla – Lakshya’s former lover, now his wife. Though she once tried to mend the broken family, Naman never accepted her. He keeps his distance, believing forgiveness would mean forgetting his mother’s pain.

Half-Brother: Abhimanyu Birla (24) – Unlike his parents, Abhimanyu shares a healthy bond with Naman. Though their personalities differ, they respect and protect each other quietly.

Grandparents: The only family members who still see the broken child inside the powerful man. They often try to push Naman toward emotional healing, but he never lets them be too close.

“I don’t fear people… I fear their touch makes me remember.”

☀️ Kartik Khurana (Naman’s Best Friend)

Age: 28

Personality: Warm, cheerful, and childlike — the complete opposite of Naman.

He balances Naman’s cold silence with humor and mischief.

Known for turning tense situations light with his teasing.

Background:

Born into an influential family, but prefers to keep a low profile. His parents were close friends with the Birlas, and he grew up alongside Naman.

He’s one of the few who knows the real reason behind Naman’s haphephobia and has been his constant emotional anchor ever since.

The only one who can make Naman laugh genuinely.

Secretly hope someone will one day heal Naman — even if it means watching his friend fall in love.
