In a small, modestly furnished bedroom, Namrata lay on her stomach, scrolling through a pirated webnovel site on her phone. She had just finished lunch and wanted nothing more than to unwind with a romantic fantasy story. Applying for part-time jobs had drained her, and this was her cheap escape.
Her phone suddenly rang. The contact flashing on her screen was 'Rohit š'.
She answered quickly, her voice bright and cheerful. "Hiā¦"
But Rohit's tone was serious and urgent ā nothing like she expected.
"Hello Namrata. Are you available right now?"
She sat up, her mood shifting instantly. "Yes, I'm at home. Tell me."
"You won't believe where I am," Rohit said. "I'm at 'Baba Saheb Welfare Hospital' ā the same place you used to work. I'm here at the request of a close associate, looking into something⦠and I found something truly shocking."
Namrata's grip tightened on the phone. "What exactly?"
