Bodhini

She ran through the endless corridors with carefree laughter, the delicate chime of her anklets echoing through the silent mansion. Her crimson sari fluttered behind her like a flame as she giggled, refusing to stop.

"Bodhini! Stop! Where are you going?" a young man called, chasing after her with a smile, but she only laughed harder and kept running.

Then everything changed.

An elderly woman suddenly grabbed Bodhini's wrist with an iron grip. Her warm laughter vanished.

"You are the daughter-in-law of this house! Have you no shame?" the old woman snapped. "Where is your veil? Is this how a married woman behaves?"

Without another word, she dragged Bodhini away and locked her inside a lonely room.

The laughter faded into helpless sobs.

Behind the closed door, Bodhini cried until the painful truth finally settled into her heart.

This was her life now.

A life where freedom was a sin, happiness was forbidden, and every smile came with a punishment.

But no one knew that the girl they had imprisoned wasn't born to live behind locked doors.

One day, the same Bodhini they tried to break would become the reason this mansion's darkest secrets came crashing down.
