Kavita locks the front door. She checks the kitchen—gas off, leftover subzi covered, water filter full. She walks past the family temple and touches the floor with her forehead. Then she climbs the stairs to the roof, where she has hung the laundry. The night air is warm. The city hums. She looks at the stars—or what can be seen of them through the Delhi smog—and for five minutes, she is no one’s mother, no one’s wife, no one’s daughter-in-law. She is just a woman breathing.

At 7:55 AM, the exodus. Kabir on his second-hand motorcycle, Priya in a shared auto-rickshaw, Aryan walking with the neighbor’s son, and Suresh heading to the bus stop. Kavita stands at the door, hands on her hips, watching them disappear around the corner. For exactly thirty seconds, the house is silent. Then she turns to the mountain of dishes, the unwashed rice for lunch, and the phone call she must make to the LPG delivery man who has been “coming tomorrow” for six days.
