Behind the Heart

A person who truly loves will always find love in any form of nature. This story is about Rony and Mony.

Rony – He is stubborn and lazy, but he always carries an air of arrogance—though only with a few people.

Mony – She is ambitious, active, a daydreamer, and an early bird too.

Rony and Mony were deeply in love, until one day Rony decided to move on. Being stubborn, he could easily forget her. But poor Mony was too attached to him, constantly begging for his love. Even though Rony showed affection at times, there was always a boundary. Mony believed that boundary was lifelong love.

Eventually, Rony moved on and happily started a new life with another girl. Mony, however, fell into depression. She tried to bring back the old version of herself—the ambitious Mony—but she failed.

In this state, she developed trust issues, lost her appetite, and could not sleep, constantly thinking Rony would return to her.

Here enters our hero. One day, a pure soul with scared eyes crossed Mony’s path. She offered him food, comforted him, and began caring for him from that day. This was Simba, who had lost his sibling in an accident.

Simba, like Mony, had trust issues. Both were sailing in the same boat of pain, but under one umbrella, they discovered love.

Simba was active and began loving Mony unconditionally. Mony, however, was afraid of loving again. But Simba’s efforts were impeccable—he never let her feel alone. Though unable to speak, he expressed his love in countless ways, showing Mony the world from a new perspective.

With Simba, Mony began to find hope again. He played, painted, and spent quality time with her, making every moment meaningful. His adorable reactions—like widening his eyes whenever she wore new earrings, a dress, or anything new—made her days brighter.

Mony often thought, “Why didn’t I meet you before?” Whenever she cooked, she thought of Simba, making sure to share half (or even more) of her food with him. Others found it strange, but their bond was special. If Mony cried, Simba would become sad too. When she was angry, Simba would call to her in a soft, pleasant voice, and she would melt instantly.

Perhaps this is true love—expecting nothing more than love in return. A girl never needs to be greedy for anything else.

As time passed, Simba built his own little family, yet he never ignored Mony. Earlier, Mony used to think about Rony 100%, but gradually that place was taken over by Simba. She not only thought of him but also cared for his family.

One day, Simba proudly introduced his next generation to Mony. He called her to step outside, saying his baby and girlfriend were waiting. Then, in a soothing voice, he introduced his baby with a gentle “meowww.”

Mony accepted Simba’s family and began caring for them too. And you’re right—

Yes, Simba is a cat! 🐾

Loving the opposite gender is not the only love.

Loving family is not the only love.

Even loving the voiceless is a true voice of love.

Some love nature. Some love strays.
