Together, they would rewrite the day.

Fateh went to Chandigarh. Akaal went into his father’s showroom. At first, they called every day. Then every week. Then Fateh’s calls went unanswered because Akaal was “busy closing a deal.” Akaal’s calls went unanswered because Fateh was “busy staying awake on four hours of sleep and instant noodles.”

The next morning, his father hugged him and said, “Don’t worry. We’ll buy another.” Together, they would rewrite the day
