Publishing an "Index" after almost a year and 7 stories in this book, but better late than never.
If you haven't guessed already, the name of this book is an ode to IPKKND's first arshi scene, where Arnav locked Khushi in a room and broke her dress's pearl dori(string), scattering the pearls. [If anyone has a gif of that scene, please share so I can add here.]
Update 23/04/2025: After years of searching, the perfect 'bikhre-moti' gif is finally here, not discovered online, but beautifully created by my dear reader, deeppriya30. Thank you, Priya, for the magic❤️🤗

Coming to the stories, most of them are in the form of SS (short stories comprising of 4-10 chapters) while some are TS (two or three shots) and very few are OSs (one shots i.e. 1 chapter only). This book is primarily to keep all of my arshi short stories in one place so not to clutter my profile with separate threads for them and I'll keep adding stories here.
In my mind, this book has stories for your Saturday evening or a lazy Sunday afternoon read, the short stories format ensuring you finish them on the go!❤
Old readers, thank you all for supporting this book and please keep the love for BM ongoing! New readers, dive in and enjoy the journey of BM 😇
