SEQUEL TO DID YOU GET YOUR PERIOD?


Shouldn't you be brimming with confidence after graduation? Armed with a degree in History, her high school love story still strong, camera roll filled with boomerangs and an insatiable appetite for Schezwan Maggie- why is this spunky desi girl feeling more lost than ever?

***

The façade of "college life" that Karan Johar movies have promised you shatters within the first week of university. An extravagant Bollywood marketing gimmick. 

After three tumultuous years at college, it's time to face the real world. But what if you're not ready?

Having convinced her mother to let her take an unconventional gap year, she's back at her home town.  What was supposed to be a year of de-stressing; slowly begins unfolding to be everything but that.

A sarcastic boy in a wheelchair, blue-haired yoga teachers, an absentee boyfriend and periods that happen four times a year- seem like a lot for a twenty-one year old to deal with. Throw into the mix a mother who won't stop hinting about UPSC examinations, a sister dropping bombshells and some very strange Gmail notifications. This nuclear Indian family has a lot to deal with!

Shweta is learning how to answer some difficult questions this time. 

Who was the eighth Prime Minister of India? Will moon bathing help her menstrual cycle? And quite importantly, is love just a marketing gimmick too?

Going back to my old title 'Is He A She?!' instead of the Tapas one 'Testoster-zone.' _______ ❝Sometimes you don't have to be Superman or Spiderman to save a soul. You just have to dress as a guy.❞ _______ Parents and troubled looks are always a bad combination. Just like how getting bankrupt and asking to dress as a guy are a bad combination. Mission objectives: 1. Befriend unfriendly, cold, rich loner. 2. Make him social. 3. Get the hell out of this all boys school. But some things go unplanned just like how the mission gets altered a 'teeny' bit. Like, for e.g., 1. Make friends. 2. Become one of the boys. 3. Make her roommate 'life of the party.' 4. Have the time of her life. 5. And maybe, just maybe... fall in love. ________________ Dedicated to my sister/mentor/inspiration @Litdark ________________ r e a d e r ' s o p i n i o n "Your story has dripping sarcasm and drool worthy attitude of girls, and the amazing romance - I kid you not, no one wants to miss an amazing sarcasm dripping hilarious fiction."

It may feel good to be pretty, but the problem with being beautiful is that there are thousands of people who look like you. Ugliness, however, is unique. ------------------- One girl, a walking-talking example of contradictions -- ambitious but naive, kind but blunt, social but awkward -- is living in perhaps the most competitive society in this world. She has a dream, a fairly conventional and acceptable dream, one which every parent would approve of. Unfortunately, millions of others share this dream, and in order to fulfill hers, she has to eliminate her competition, literally. Throw in a fair share of drama. Friends and family, crushes and exes, decisions and choices, and the life story of an Indian teenager would be complete. ---------------------- The last few years of school are the most memorable; grades, stress and career mixed with friends, fun and dreams. But most of the time when we are planning our awesome candid picture-perfect life, we end up crossing the 'i's and dotting the 't's. ------------------------------------ COMPLETED ON JULY 14, 2018 Featured in the teen fiction reading list of Wattpad India!

"If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were." ♡ Almost all of us have fallen for someone in the tender years of life. They are purest love stories, where emotions intertwine with innocence. A few make it through those stories, but many get their heart broken, savoring that first bittersweet sip of love and heartache. Some confess their feelings, and get their heart broken. Others hold back, feeling the same ache in silence. Time split some apart; some are pulled away by destiny. But how many of us get the chance to reunite with them and rewrite that story? Well, Sharvi Kashyap and Parth Sharawat did. Sharvi and Parth, having fallen in love at the age of 13, never shared their feelings and were eventually torn apart by destiny. Now, belonging to two different worlds, where one has patiently awaited true love while the other has borne the scars of a tumultuous past relationship, they have given up on all hopes of a reunion. However, destiny has some other plans, as it orchestrates a serendipitous reunion, giving them a chance to rekindle their love. But the journey to love is not easy because lingering beneath are concealed burdens and hints of past torments. There are scars etched deep, and there is a reluctance that shadows the prospects of rekindling love, leaving their future uncertain. Will they overcome obstacles, creating a timeless tale? Or will their love remain unfinished, leaving echoes of what could have been?
