I really liked how the story starts with such an ordinary, almost boring weekend and slowly turns into something much more mysterious. Mohit has nothing left to do, has already finished his book, his web series, and even cooked and eaten, so the mention of his insomnia immediately sets the perfect mood for something unusual to happen. The line about him being covered in sweat not because of exercise but because of the visuals he had seen instantly makes me curious about what exactly he witnessed. I also like how the peaceful setting of the pond contrasts with the unsettling feeling of the story—it makes the mystery feel even more unexpected. The writing builds suspense naturally without revealing everything at once, and it genuinely makes you want to continue reading to understand what Mohit saw, who the couple are, and how all these events are connected.
