As the plane landed at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai, Aarav felt a rush of emotions. He was finally back home. He took a taxi and headed to his family's residence in the heart of the city.
"Welcome Home 2024," he whispered to himself, smiling.
The evening was spent watching a Bollywood movie, with Aarav's family teasing him about his favorite dialogues and songs. The night ended with a warm dinner, laughter, and a sense of belonging.
