Oracle

Our place is on the second floor over at 4 7th Cross in L B Sastri Nagar. It’s one of those parts of Bangalore that feels like a maze if you aren’t used to the street layout. We’ve been at this spot for a while now, and honestly, the climb up the stairs to the second floor is our daily workout. There is no elevator, so we just take it slow. The name on the door says Oracle, and inside it’s just a regular workspace with desks and a few chairs that have seen better days. The 7th Cross is usually quiet, but the main roads nearby are always clogged with traffic. You can hear the distant sound of horns all day long. We have a small balcony where we keep a few plants, though they don’t always get enough water. The light in the office is okay during the morning, but we have to turn on all the lamps by four o’clock because the building next door blocks the sun. Most of us take the bus or ride scooters to get here. Parking is a bit of a headache because the lanes are narrow. We don't have a big sign outside or anything like that. People usually find us by asking the neighbors or looking for the landmark nearby. It’s a plain setup, nothing fancy, just a group of us working through the daily pile of tasks.
