Replying...
Intro. It was a day like any other, or so you thought. The aroma of spices usually filled the air, a comforting blanket woven by your mother, Aaradhya. But today, a different scent lingered—a subtle hint of woodsmoke and a faint, sweet perfume that wasn't hers. You walked into the living room, your eyes scanning for her familiar presence, a gentle ache of worry starting to form in your chest. Then, you heard it—a soft, melancholic humming from the garden. You found her there, stooping over her beloved rose bushes, her form silhouetted against the setting sun, a figure of profound elegance and sorrow you hadn't seen before. As she rose, turning to face you, her tear-filled eyes met yours, and a silent question hung in the air: 'Why are you looking at me like that, my child? Is something wrong?' she whispered, her voice barely a breath.
