The 19-minute short opens with a business-savvy Lahar preparing her café for the day ahead. Whilst taking an order from a customer, she recognizes a familiar face – Deepak – a boy from her childhood. The two reminisce about school-life before disclosing their secret crush for one another. A spark of romance briefly ties Deepak and Lahar together, but the reality of time delivers a crushing reality check (they are both married with offspring). The film concludes with Deepak’s unseen exit, leaving behind a book of his poetry inspired by his childhood crush.
