The sound of water running from the shower filled the room as Atharva stood under the warm spray, his head bowed.

" Ahh, I'm fucking sick of this same nightmares"

He muttered to himself, frustration evident in his voice. He opened his eyes, letting the water wash over him for a few more moments before stepping out of the shower.

As he emerged, wrapped in a towel around his waist and using another to dry his hair, Aditya, his friend and secretary, greeted him cheerfully.

" Good morning atharva"

" There’s nothing good about this morning, Adi,” Atharva replied, his tone flat as he began dressing.

“C’mon, at least greet me back,” Aditya persisted, pouting like a petulant child.

Aditya sighed dramatically. “Okay, fine. Get ready quickly—we’ve got a flight to India in an hour.”

Atharva nodded, and Aditya left him to finish his preparations. Atharva gazed at himself in the mirror, his expression darkening.

" I'm coming ruhi " he said with a smirk, knowing that he was about to return to India after a four-year absence.
