Home, Slowly

Sanyukta Singh has always lived a life that looks perfect from the outside-privileged, polished, and planned down to the last detail. A second-year software engineering student by compulsion, not choice, she moves through college quietly, her dreams tucked away behind a camera lens and expectations she was never allowed to question. With an almost-engagement looming over her future, her life is already decided-until it isn't.

Rehaan Purohit has built his life one step at a time-grounded, warm, and unapologetically real. Surrounded by friends, driven by ambition, and deeply in love with the world of tech, he knows exactly where he's going. What he doesn't expect is to notice the quiet girl who always sits at the edge of everything-and stays there.

They begin as strangers sharing the same classroom. Then come small moments-shared notes, quiet help, accidental conversations. Slowly, almost imperceptibly, those moments begin to mean something. But where Sanyukta has spent her life living for everyone else, Rehaan has learned not to hold on to things that might not stay.

In a world where one is bound by expectations and the other by unspoken limits, Home, Slowly is a story of finding space, choosing yourself, and discovering that sometimes, love doesn't arrive all at once-it builds, quietly, until it feels like home.
