Outside, the campus throbbed with winter preparations: steam rising off the library roof, students hauling boxes into car trunks, a dog asleep in the quad. Inside, in the glow of the monitor, Asha found a final note tucked into a comments block, like a postcard from a vanished friend.
She didn't tell Arjun. She didn't broadcast praise on the forums. She closed the laptop and slept with the quiet relief that belonged to people who mend things in the dark.
