Teenage Aleisha works at the Harrow Library, the place Naina took out her last books. Mukesh reads the book to feel close to his wife again and, inspired to continue that connection, he decides to head to the library for more fuel. Naina loved reading, and her connection to books had always been important to her. His three daughters check in on him worriedly, and among their mother’s things, they find one of Naina’s library books – The Time-Traveler’s Wife – and give it to Mukesh to return.
