Truth and Proof

Both Aastha and Denisha watched them quietly. Adhir came out of the kitchen. Aastha opened the camera, ready to click pictures. She tried to click, but only his side face was seen.

Adhir handed Reason a glass of water and sat on the couch, showing his full-back towards them.

"Shit," Denisha muttered.

"Are you hungry?" Adhir asked.

Reason shook his head.

"Just had a snack."

Reason was trying to find a way to start the conversation about Prayas. He saw Adhir's brother Badal's photo on the table. He had an excuse to bring up the topic.

"It's been so many years. I still can't believe it," Reason whispered, not taking his eyes off the photo frame.

Adhir sighed.

"I miss him. It's been three decades without him."

"I was wondering where are your...." he paused. "those friends who used to come to the cafe? that vampire and the human?" Reason asked: taking a chance.

Adhir went silent. His eyes were filled with anger, but he quickly covered it.
