it feels odd, out and about alone with rohan. aside from somewhat formal conversations about updates and family over some chai and biscuits or in a crowded ballroom she really cannot remember the last time they have done anything without the buffer of either of their siblings or her husband. she can’t place where the disconnect comes from — they should be closer than they are, in theory. both firstborns, rohan uniquely knows it means to be in the positions they are in. still it is aditya he gels with, and antara he teases, and aarya who worships the ground he walks on. she isn’t sure where the part she plays in the walls fixed between them ends, and his begins. “ you’ve been here before ? it’s off the beaten path. seems interesting. ” she hopes he hasn’t done this to accommodate her, she’d asked to go somewhere he likes. really has discovered he likes.
