Pia Malhotra has always been the responsible one. As the eldest daughter, her life is a careful balance between family expectations, school, and taking care of everyone around her. She doesn't complain. She doesn't ask for help. She just... keeps going. Aayush, her childhood neighbor and the most annoying boy she knows, has been part of her life since they were six. From stealing her chocolates to teasing her every single day, he has always been there-whether she likes it or not. Now Pia is in 11th grade and Aayush is also in 11th grade at Sunshine College, and somehow their lives are still tangled together. Between college chaos, teasing friends, late-night study sessions, and years of shared memories, their friendship begins to change into something neither of them expected. But when the person who knows you the best is also the one who can break your heart the most... what happens when friendship slowly turns into love? A childhood friendship. A boy next door. And a love story that was growing quietly all along.
