His Widow
he whispered, his voice hoarse, barely audible over the sound of his own ragged breathing.
Asha didn't respond. Tears streamed silently down her face, her eyes distant as she remained paralyzed by the shock of what had just happened. She seemed frozen, struggling to process the violence that had unfolded in front of her. Raghav's eyes scanned her face for any sign of injury, his heart still racing in fear. Then he noticed it-a thin streak of blood on her neck, barely visible against her skin. His fingers gently lifted her chin, and now he saw it clearly. A shallow cut where the thug's knife had grazed her, a thin line of blood slowly trickling down.
