In the story "Guilt" by Rahul Thaker, we meet Ajay, who is stuck in a severe traffic jam on the SG highway in Ahmedabad due to heavy rain. The rain, which is the first significant rainfall of the monsoon season, has led to bumper-to-bumper traffic, frustrating Ajay as he tries to navigate his way home. Despite honking his horn multiple times, he finds himself unable to move at all. Ajay's frustration grows as he checks the time and realizes he is running late. He reflects on his life, revealing that he is a 31-year-old man from a middle-class family living in Ranip with his wife and elderly parents. He works as a Sales Manager at a private bank, earning just enough to cover household expenses and medical treatments for his parents. The traffic situation is beyond his control, and as he sits in his car, he begins to contemplate the recent events in his life.
