Shades

She was from Mumbai.

She had gone back to Mumbai.

Day 6 - Beach days

The salty breeze welcomed us as we got down at the bus stop. The beach was crowded as expected on a Sunday evening. We walked towards the waves. The sunset was about to happen. The horizon reminded us of our minuscule presence in the world.
