The days that followed Aniruddh’s departure were draped in a heavy, suffocating silence. The Roy Choudhary mansion, once a beacon of life, felt like a hollow shell. Dida had physically and emotionally crumbled under the weight of the oath she had taken and the coldness of her grandson’s exit.
Bondita, despite her own breaking heart, became the pillar of the house. She set aside her own grief to serve Dida, gently coaxing her to take a single spoonful of rice or a sip of water with her medicine. But the news Bilal brought was the hardest to swallow Aniruddh hadn't been to the office. He was a ghost, wandering the city or buried in some dark corner of his past, unreachable and untraceable.
