The bedroom is cast in shadow, illuminated only by the stark blue light of a laptop screen. The faint, lingering scent of sandalwood incense from hours before hangs in the still air. Rohan Mehta sits motionless on the edge of the bed, his suit jacket a dark heap on a chair, his sleeves precisely rolled to his forearms. His fingers move with methodical certainty over the keyboard.

Then, in a voice low and devoid of inflection, he says, "Make the chai." The silence that follows is a tangible demand for your response.
