What do you do when you hear stories about the people in power in your state bully the 'common man'? You often ignore, thanking god that it wasn't you or someone close to you. What if that person was your closest friend? What do you then do? When the things you cherish the most are taken away from you, what do you then become?
A simple college going guy from Delhi, sharing an apartment with his friends and enjoying the best phase of life is unaware of such adversities, until one day something happens which halts their easy going life. What happened that day? That is a mystery which remains unresolved yet. The answers people had given him, were not convincing enough. He knew something was amiss, the dots just didn't connect. How long could he ignore? How long could he stay an unperturbed, selfish mortal.

We were never just FRIENDS
Somewhere between my chaos and calm, I found a rhythm that felt like home-and suddenly, I was in love.... But love, in college? It's never just about roses and DMs. Especially not when your best friend's crush turns out to be already taken. And not just by anyone - but by Anirudh Vikram, the senior every guy respects, every girl swoons over, and every faculty secretly fears. The guy's got abs sharper than his attitude, and trust me - both hurt. Enter Sanjay Kumar - our "I-don't-care-but-I-actually-do" boy. A guy who values friendship more than logic, loyalty more than safety, and somehow ends up in the most avoidable mess ever. All he wanted was to help his bro Rahul talk to a girl... not poke the sleeping lion of the cricket battlefield. What follows? A blend of bromance, backlashes, sixers on the field, cold stares in the gym, mysterious smiles, unexpected love, road trips, late-night confessions - and a lot of "Oops... did that just happen?" So buckle up. This isn't just another college story. This is chaos served hot, with a side of gym sweat, cafeteria gossip, and cricket fever.Complete
Written In The Stars
"So.. go on a date with me?" I can't stop looking at him. He's just so beautiful. As he always was-just ten years younger. Same brown eyes, same lips, that boyish charm. The only difference is the hint of innocence in his gaze and the curiosity in his expression. No doubt he's surprised by my sudden question. I can't really blame him. His boring, nonchalant classmate of one year has just asked him out after a nice evening together. But I know he'll say yes. He has to. He never said no to me. I can't wait to plan all the amazing, adventurous dates with him, to make him feel special this time-just like he did for me. I'm eager to get to know him all over again. That's when I hear mumbling. "Hmm?" I ask, not hearing him properly. "No. I'm sorry, but I'm not interested. I had a great time today, Anu, but I don't see you that way. I'll have to decline." I can hear my heart breaking. Funny, isn't it? All your life, you think: Okay, this will be my last heartbreak. This guy will be the one. He's going to make it all worth it. And then, suddenly, life throws another failed attempt at love into your bucket. If I can manage to get rejected by my husband of three years, then there probably isn't any hope for me. . . Anu had everything-power, success, and a love so deep it felt unshakable. Three years of marital bliss with Ashwin, the man who was her home, her heart, her forever. Their life was perfect, built with love, laughter, and quiet mornings wrapped in each other's warmth. But in the blink of an eye, everything vanished. She woke up not in their home, but in a college dorm. Not as the woman who ruled boardrooms, but as a twenty-year-old student. And then she saw him. Ashwin. But this Ashwin didn't know her. He wasn't her devoted husband. He was a stranger, a boy still finding his way in life. She had been thrust back into his past, into a time where she didn't belong. And the most terrifying question of all- Would he still fall in love with her?Complete

Luna's Diary
Ever since I was a kid, I knew I was different. Other children didn't like hanging out with me. I was silently bullied, and even the teachers seemed to hate me. And honestly? I was ugly. I really was... different. The way I talked, the way I walked-people even said my walk was horrifying (don't ask). The way I did things, the things I found interesting... they all set me apart. Then I entered high school. Suddenly, I became popular. I was beautiful, with a figure people envied. I had tons of friends-three-quarters of whom I still don't know by name. I had the perfect best friend. Teachers adored me. I was even the school's valedictorian. Sure, people still called me weird, but I ruled. Until everything came crashing down... all in one day. --- The day I didn't talk to my best friend. Just one day. Only, I didn't know we wouldn't speak again for days, then months... then years.
