Some people run toward love. Some toward money. I run toward anything that keeps me from sitting alone with my own brain. Shaan is twenty, rich enough to buy three countries, emotionally broke enough to make bad investments in people instead. Between Mumbai train rides, vada pav turf wars, and a best friend who might be more than a best friend (don't tell her I said that), he's drifting through college like it's an open mic set no one asked for. But the thing about drifting? You still crash. Eventually. DRIFT is a funny-sad, chaos-fueled look at friendship, love, and why we keep running - even when we have no idea where the road ends.
