Nandini Murthy has always preferred the sidelines-quiet, observant, and content in her own world. With her extroverted brother, Abhimanyu, stealing the spotlight, she never minds blending into the background. Their bond is simple: no interference, no unnecessary questions. But one evening changes everything. When Abhimanyu invites his friends over for a match night, Nandini barely acknowledges them-except for one. Manik Malhotra. Her brother's best friend. The moment their eyes meet, something shifts. Manik, with his easy smirk and piercing gaze, is everything Nandini avoids-charming, confident, and dangerously perceptive. And yet, she can't ignore the way his presence lingers, the way he seems to see right through her silence. As stolen glances turn into secret conversations, a thrilling, undeniable connection builds between them. But when emotions grow deeper, so does the risk. Because if Abhimanyu finds out-about the lingering looks, the whispered words, the unspoken feelings-will it shatter the bond between them all? In a city that never sleeps, where secrets can either bring hearts closer or break them apart, Nandini must decide... is love worth the risk?
