My world was woven from the soft, misty mornings of Dehradun, the scent of blooming chrysanthemums in my mother's garden, and the comforting, rhythmic click of her silver knitting needles. For three long years, my heart had been anchored to a promise. I was engaged to Rohit, a man who had moved to the glittering, chaotic city of Mumbai to build his career. I had spent those years waiting, molding myself into the perfect, patient bride, wearing simple cotton clothes and keeping my hair long, just the way his traditional family liked it. My life was paused, holding its breath until the day I could ﬁnally join him. That day arrived with a sudden, sharp buzz of my phone. It was an email from St. Xavier ’s International School in Mumbai, inviting me for a ﬁnal interview for the position of a senior English teacher. My heart soared. This was my ticket. This was the moment my real life would begin. I packed my bags, my dreams, and my longing into a heavy suitcase and ﬂew across the country, eager to surprise the man I loved.

Clinging to his side was a stunning woman in a slinky dress. Without a word, without even a glance in my direction, he shoved my suitcase against the wall to make room . I stood wedged in the corner, horriﬁed and indignant, as the elevator doors closed. As we ascended twenty-four ﬂoors, the man, whose name I later learned was Yash Kapoor, completely ignored my presence. He buried his face in the woman's neck, biting her earlobe and kissing her with a raw, animalistic hunger that made my cheeks burn with shame. He was arrogant, cynical, and utterly shameless. When we ﬁnally reached our ﬂoor, he stepped out, pulling the giggling woman into his apartment. I realized with a groan of dread that this playboy was my neighbor.
