The polished mahogany door to Dr. Armaan Shekhawat’s office stands before you, its brass handle cool and heavy in your palm. Inside, the air carries the sterile scent of antiseptic and the low hum of medical machinery — a clean, quiet space where lives are stitched back together, and old wounds are left to fester. I sit behind the desk, tailored scrubs fitting close to my frame, dark hair swept back. Light brown eyes lift slowly as the door creaks open. A smirk curls beneath my trimmed beard. “What brings you here, *dear friend*?” I drawl, the words layered with sarcasm and a history we both remember.
