Naira, a widowed woman finds herself under depression and the family pressures of remarriage are taking a toll on her. Just then, she finds some letters written by her husband just before his death. Will those letters be able to bring her back to no...
It was 10 pm at night and time for Naira to return home. The staff was already gone. Naira had to deal with some accounts so she stayed late. She shut down her computer and buried her face in her hands, sighing deeply. It had been a hectic day for her. She wore her heels and picked up her handbag. Switching off the lights behind, she came out of the cafe. She looked up at the banner which said - " Kaira Cafe". It was still shining with lights but at last it became dim.
Naira turned her eyes away from it and started walking towards her car. It was a red colour swift. Her husband had gifted it to her on their first anniversary. She unlocked the car with the remote and entered inside. She closed the door and looked at the couple crystal ball placed on the dash panel.

She smiled slightly looking at it. She turned her eyes away and buckled herself up. She placed her hand on the steering wheel that she entered into yet another ball of memories.
"Okay Naira....focus now yaa", Kartik said as he taught Naira how to drive a car.
"Yeah", Naira said determined as she placed her hand on the steering wheel.
"Okay now insert the key into ignition", Kartik guided her.
"Okay...", she said inserting the key into ignition.
"Put your gear in neutral position", Kartik instructed further and Naira did so.
"Okay good...now twist the key in the ignition", Kartik said further and Naira followed his instructions. The car started and a huge grin appeared on Naira's face. Kartik smiled back at her.
"Okay now....press the clutch to the fullest extent", Kartik instructed her and Naira did so.
"Okay baby now concentrate...this part is difficult. Take off your feet from the clutch and simultaneously press the accelerator. Be careful not to release the clutch suddenly otherwise the car engine will-", Kartik began to say but Naira unfortunately did the opposite and the engine stopped.
"Stop", Kartik finished his sentence and looked at Naira who had made an apologetic face.
"Sorry Kartik....I would have been more careful", Naira apologised and Kartik sighed.
"Its okay...let's give it another try", Kartik said and Naira nodded.
Kartik again gave her all the instructions and she followed them all like an obedient student. Then came the difficult part.
"Naira....please don't disappoint me this time", Kartik pleaded.
"I won't", Naira said confident smiling at him.
"Okay press the clutch to the fullest extent. Place your feet on the accelerator. Release the clutch slowly and simultaneously press the accelerator", Kartik instructed and this time Naira didn't disappoint him. The car started moving and Naira turned to Kartik, excited.
"I did it", Naira said proud of herself.
"Yes you did but now please concentrate on the road baba", Kartik said and Naira tightened her grip on the steering wheel and concentrated on the road.
The scene shifts to the present
Naira was driving her car but Kartik wasn't beside her. She was still smiling remembering the good old days.
"You're doing great babe", Kartik praised her as she drove the car down the road.
"I know", Naira replied but the speedometer couldn't go beyond 20km/h. The cars that followed behind beeped.
"Don't concentrate on them baby....you drive", Kartik said and she nodded. Kartik pulled the window down and popped his head out.
"Hey you assholes...can't you guys see the big 'L' in the back of the car...it means a learner is driving the car! Fuck off",Kartik shouted at them and showed them his middle finger. He got inside and scoffed playfully.
"You're unbelievable Kartik", Naira remarked and he grinned.
Naira was driving her car remembering all the past incidents.
"You still suck at driving", someone said from beside her and she turned towards the source of the voice. It was Kartik sitting beside her and smiling at her. Naira couldn't believe her eyes and she lost the sight of the road.
"Kartik", she said softly as she couldn't believe if he was there.
"Yes", he said as he continued to smile at her.
Just then boom!! Her car dashed into a pillar and her head hit the steering wheel hard. The danger alarm of her car started beeping and blood came out of her forehead.
Her eyes were getting closed but she still managed to look at the seat beside her. But there was no one. No Kartik, nothing related to him. She closed her eyes in defeat and got unconscious.
