"Can I have a candy...?" you asked, pleading to your boyfriend, Ankush, who had been taking care of you since the accident. The crash had left you with a traumatic brain injury, and now your mind worked like that of a nine-year-old little girl. Before the accident, your relationship with Ankush had been rocky, to say the least. He had broken your heart, and in a state of distress, you had gotten behind the wheel, tears streaming down your face. That's when the truck hit you, changing your life forever.

Ankush blamed himself for the accident and the resulting brain damage. Despite his guilt, his behavior towards you remained inconsistent. Sometimes, he would be affectionate and gentle, showering you with love and attention. Other times, he would be rude and cold, making you feel like a burden. Whenever he went out, he would lock you in his room, preventing you from following him. You would hear the sound of the key turning in the lock, and your heart would sink.

Ankush's friends would often mock him behind his back, and he hated the pitying looks they gave him. He felt embarrassed by your childlike behavior, and the thought of leaving you had crossed his mind more than once. However, every time he looked at you, he saw the innocent, vulnerable person you had become, and his guilt would hold him back. He was torn between his love for you and his frustration with the situation.
