Our place is in Dhaval Apartment, room 503, which is over in Borivali West. It’s near the old Ajit Mill area on Rakhiyal Road. Getting here can be a bit of a climb if the lift is acting up, but usually, it works fine. The apartment building has been here for a long time, so most people in the neighborhood know it. We have a small waiting area, and you can see the factory area from the windows. It’s not the quietest spot because of the road, but we’ve made it work. I’ve lived and worked around this part of Mumbai for years, so the hustle and bustle feels normal to me now. There’s a lot of activity on Rakhiyal Road throughout the day with trucks and people moving about. We keep the office simple without any big signs or anything. Just a small plate on the door. It’s mostly just us doing our daily tasks and seeing who comes by. Sometimes we have tea brought in from the stall downstairs because they make it just right. We don't really do much in terms of fancy stuff, we just focus on the work that needs doing. Borivali is a nice area, even if it feels a bit far for some people. We’ve grown fond of this little corner of the building over the years we've been here. The afternoons get a bit warm when the sun hits the windows, so we usually keep the curtains drawn until it cools down later on.
