POV: Bunny
The day began like any other — late coffee, a near-burnt toast, and a rushed train ride.
But the moment she stepped into the office, something felt... off.
A group of employees stood huddled near the elevator. Their voices low but urgent.
> "He was here again today."
"The CEO?"
"Not officially. But yes. Someone from the top floor said they heard his name."
Bunny's ears sharpened.
> Bunny (thinking): The CEO again? That's twice this week.
She moved past them, pretending not to care — but her curiosity boiled inside.

Later — Team Meeting Room
Bunny sat across the table from two senior leads. The project was running well — until one of them mentioned:
> "We'll need approval from A.K. himself for the server-side updates."
"Yeah, Mr. Aarav usually signs off directly on dev-side testing."
Her head snapped up.
> Bunny (blinking): "Sorry... who?"
Lead: "Mr. Aarav K — the CEO. You didn't know?"
Other Lead (chuckling): "You're lucky. Most interns only hear about him. Never meet him."
Bunny (numb): "Yeah... right."
They kept talking.
She stopped listening.

POV: Bunny (thinking):
Aarav... K?
A.K.?
Her thoughts swirled like a storm.
> Bunny: No. That can't be right. Not MY Aarav.
She stumbled out of the meeting, phone clutched tightly.

Later — Chat with Unknown
📱 Bunny: Is your name Aarav?
📱 Unknown: ...Why are you asking now?
📱 Bunny: Because I heard something today.
📱 Unknown: Then you already know the answer.
📱 Bunny: Why didn't you tell me before?
📱 Unknown: Because I never stopped being that five-year-old boy who didn't want to leave you.
Her heart dropped.
