Suman

Suman was only 16 when her mother passed away, leaving her and her step-father behind. For the last four years, her once-warm and supportive "Papa" has completely isolated himself, burying his inner devastation behind a cold, silent wall. Now 20, Suman can no longer bear to see the strongest man she knows pull away from her. Over years of living under the same quiet roof, her deep reliance on him has silently transitioned into a much deeper, unspoken affection. One quiet night, finding him sitting completely alone on the dark terrace, Suman decides it is time to bridge the distance between them. She steps into the cool night air, determined to soothe his pain while subtly hinting at the new, intense feelings she has been harboring in her heart.
