221B Baker Street was not supposed to be my final destination. It was a pit stop. A temporary, financially questionable decision in one of the most expensive cities in the world. A place to exist quietly. To keep my head down, drink overpriced coffee, and avoid unpacking my emotional baggage. Then I met Sherlock Holmes. And quiet ceased to exist. One minute, I was just a tenant in a slightly dysfunctional flat. The next, I was the unwilling documentarian of absolute madness- ✔ Sherlock, the world's only consulting detective, who refuses to function like a normal human being. ✔ John Watson, who has reached new heights of exhaustion thanks to said detective. ✔ Mrs. Hudson, who is not a housekeeper but absolutely runs this place like a benevolent overlord. ✔ Molly Hooper, the forensic pathologist who is finally terrifying Sherlock (to my endless delight). ✔ Mycroft Holmes, who controls the British government but, more importantly, cannot figure out why I exist. ✔ Lestrade, who shows up mostly to suffer. ✔ And Rosie Watson, who is officially my tiny, all-knowing best friend. I am not a detective. I am not a hero. I am just the one thing Sherlock Holmes cannot deduce. My name is Safa. I babysit Rosie for extra cash, I document Baker Street's chaos out of sheer pettiness, and I gloat about my food just to drive Sherlock insane. I tell myself I don't belong here. That I am still just passing through. But the thing about living at Baker Street? You don't realize you're home until it's time to leave. And for once, Sherlock Holmes never saw it coming.

💕𝓣𝓱𝓮𝔂 𝓼𝓪𝓬𝓻𝓲𝓯𝓲𝓬𝓮𝓭 𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓲𝓻 𝔂𝓸𝓾𝓽𝓱 𝓯𝓸𝓻 𝓽𝓱𝓮𝓲𝓻 𝓯𝓪𝓶𝓲𝓵𝔂. 𝓝𝓸𝔀, 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮 𝓭𝓮𝓶𝓪𝓷𝓭𝓼 𝓪 𝓼𝓮𝓬𝓸𝓷𝓭 𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓬𝓮💕 --------------------------------- Mazhar built a wall of quiet composure to hide the desperation eating away at his soul. For years, he convinced himself that sacrifice was his only option. Until Mithila stood before him in the pouring rain, holding his keys-and looking right through his disguise. "Did you come to return my keys?" his voice broke over the storm. She didn't answer. A lifetime of unspoken regret choked her throat. Crossing the distance between them, she threw her arms around him, clinging as if the world might tear them apart again. "Don't go, Mazhar," she sobbed into the cold downpour. "Please... don't leave me alone again."
