Naveen, as promised, turned completely away, lowering his eyes toward the water and focusing on a distant tree line, giving her the privacy she deserved.
 
In his mind, he knew she was likely bathing now, fully vulnerable, and yet he did not look, did not even consider turning. “She trusts me… I won’t break that,” he thought. “She’s the only person I have on this island. Her trust is precious. I’ll honor it, no matter what.”
 
As she removed her clothes and set them aside, she was aware that these were the only garments they had, and they too needed washing. “I have to wash them… I can’t wear them another day like this,” she thought.
 
Carefully, she dipped each piece into the clear water, letting the cool current carry away the salt, sand, and sweat, then squeezed and wrung them, laying them out to dry in the sunlight. She carefully hung her clothes and shawl across low branches, adjusting them so the breeze would catch them.
 
She didn’t want to rush it; she wanted to savor the feeling of being clean, even briefly. “This warmth, this sunlight… I want it to last,” she thought.
 
“Even something as ordinary as washing clothes feels like a small victory,” she mused, feeling a little lighter already.
 
Once her clothes were set, she stepped fully into the spring, letting the fresh water envelope her. The initial touch sent a shiver through her, a shock of relief that made her gasp softly. “Finally… a moment of being clean,” she thought, letting herself breathe into it, fully aware of the sunlight on her back and the cool water against her skin.
 
She moved gently through the spring, splashing her face and rinsing her hair, letting the water erase the last remnants of two days’ discomfort. Each motion was careful, deliberate, a ritual of renewal, grounding her in the present. “I’ve never appreciated something so ordinary… so necessary,” she thought, the stream and sun becoming a sanctuary in the middle of chaos.
 
All the while, she felt Naveen’s presence upstream, his stillness and respectful distance a reassurance. “He’s not looking… he could, but he’s not. He trusts me… he values me,” she thought, her admiration deepening. “Even here, after everything, someone sees me as a person first.”
 
Naveen’s thoughts mirrored the weight of her trust. “She’s bathing now… fully exposed, vulnerable…” the man inside him forced him to turn and see.
