By the Lake — A Misty Morning, 2026
Apeksha & Rakshit
The fog did not lift. It stayed, and made a room of the whole field.
Chapter 1
The Field
We arrived before the fog could decide to leave. It never did — and so the whole field became a soft-walled room, the lake a pale mirror behind them.



Chapter 2
The Veil
Lengths of sheer fabric caught the wind and drew their own frames around the two of them — half curtain, half weather.



Chapter 3
The Nearness
Between the wide frames we kept the near ones — a forehead, a held hand, a laugh that the fog softened but could not hide.
