Balancing Sheets and Hearts

Veer had always believed numbers were safer than people.
Equations didn't judge, balance sheets never laughed when he stammered, and silence was easier than speaking up. In a crowded CA coaching class, he was just another backbencher-quiet, invisible, and perfectly fine with it.

Until Kiara sat three rows ahead.
Ambivert. Bright. The kind of girl who could make friends over a single chai break, yet often disappeared into her own thoughts when no one was watching. She was everything Veer wasn't-confident, effortless, alive.

Their worlds were never meant to cross.
But when study sessions turned into late-night conversations, and shared calculators became shared secrets, Veer realized that maybe life wasn't just about balancing accounts. Maybe it was about balancing hearts.

And in the quiet corners of ledgers and libraries, a shy boy and a not-so-simple girl might just learn that love doesn't need to be loud to be real.
