no food. no water. just vibes and you.
fasting since 4:52 am
that's a streetlight, jaan.
that's sharma aunty's torch.
that's a plane. sit down.
that's literally a roti. you're hallucinating.
…wait. it's here. it's actually here.
patience
drag the channi over it.
there it is. pretty.
but honestly? mine's prettier.
do it in order. mummy is watching.
diya lit. officially ready to be judged.
arghya to the moon. done. (you're next.)
first sip of water. from your hands. 14 hours, worth it.
first bite. now i can be nice again.
it's hidden in my mehendi. tradition. tap it.
nope. look closer.
closer… near the thumb, maybe?
okay okay, it's glowing now.
happy karwa chauth,
saat janam? done. but order dinner first.
