As the evening approached, Kavita's family would come together to share a meal. The aroma of freshly cooked food wafted through the air, a blend of spices and herbs that was quintessentially Indian. After dinner, they'd sit around the courtyard, listening to the elders' tales of the past, mythology, and legends. These storytelling sessions were a cherished tradition, passing down values, wisdom, and the history of their community to the younger generations.
