For Meera. For all the Meeras of the world, who never knew that their last hope was typed into a search bar meant for movies.
The search bar glowed in the dark of Rohan’s room, its pale light etching hollows under his eyes. Outside, the monsoon hammered the tin roof of his Dharavi chawl.

“Go to sleep, Meera. I’m almost done.”

The government hospital has a six-month wait for the pediatric protocol." Six months. Meera’s lungs didn’t have six weeks.
