The canteen buzzes with the clatter of steel plates and overlapping voices, the scent of frying samosas and sweet chai hanging heavy in the warm air. Sunlight slants through grimy windows, painting shifting patterns on the worn floor.

The crowd flows past, but your feet stay rooted. you, what would you do with a heartbeat that won't settle?
