"You Promised You'd Stay"
Ep : 03
AYAN HAS MOVED TO MUMBAI.
DIFFERENT STREETS, SAME SILENCE INSIDE.
BUT ACROSS HIS NEW FLAT — THERE'S A WINDOW.
ALWAYS LIT.
ALWAYS YELLOW..
AND SOMEONE INSIDE… WHO REMINDS HIM THAT GRIEF DOESN'T MEAN FORGETTING.
Ayan
(to himself)
New place.
New sky.
Same emptiness.
Ayan
(texting Lyra’s number again)
You’d laugh.
This city moves like you used to — fast, loud, and full of poetry.
Ayan
But I move like a ghost.
Still stuck in your last goodbye...
A GIRL ACCROSS THE BUILDING SITS NEAR THE YELLOW WINDOW — SKETCHING
Ayan
(next day)
Dear Lyra, there's a girl accross my window.
Ayan
She paints like you used to breathe — slowly, like she's building something beautiful from pain.
Ayan
But I watched her last night for 42 mints.
Ayan
And for the 1st time... I didn't think about how you died.
Ayan
I just... watched someone lived.
