Return to the Car – Something New Settles
Back in the car, Meghana chose the backseat this time.
Varnika sat in the front,
Claiming the AUX cable like a queen and playing old Bollywood songs.
Abhi drove quietly, occasionally stealing glances in the mirror.
Varnika sang under her breath to a Kishore Kumar classic.
Meghana hummed in harmony.
No declarations were made. But something had settled.
Not tension.
Not confusion.
But permission.
To feel what they feel.
To move forward
However this triangle was meant to shape.
