Before The Monsoon Ends 🌧️

The boy he put at ease, the words that would alter a stranger's course of life - Shubman Gill has no recollection of any of it.

It is only years on when he comes face to face with Ishan Kishan once more, now the unapproachable and handsome head of an Indian business empire as old as they come.

Ishan, for his part, has not forgotten a thing. He simply does not like the man Shubman has become.

There are forces at work pulling them in one direction: cricket and business, family ties and the monsoon season bearing down. Each encounter has a way of dismantling what one might have assumed.

Shubman is the first to see it. Ishan is the first to make sense of it. As for who will be the first to surrender, neither can say.
