If granted any wish you desired, what would yours be?

For Shweta Roy, it would be what every human dreams of, at least once in their lifetime: Popularity. But not for the sake of being popular. Rather, to catch the eye of Utkarsh Sharma, the lead guitarist of their school band and a star of the basketball team.

When a witch appears in her room, offering Shweta a chance at being the popular girl at school for two weeks, will she take it?

Or, most importantly, will she make it?

As a tumultuous fortnight unfolds, will Shweta Roy finally break the rose-tinted glass that obscures popularity and discover its downsides?

Or will she find a way to stay afloat in these shiny waters, forever?

Find out now, in The Downsides Of Popularity.

'Popularity isn't at all what it's credited to be. It's not always rainbows and sunflowers. It's the rare glimmer in the dark you need to hop on to stay afloat lest you might drown among the commoners and never be seen again.'

'So why would people want to remain popular?'

'Because of the fear of never being seen. Of never being known for who you truly are.'

TERA BHI KATEGA/ YOU TOO WILL GET DUMPED (FLASH FICTIONS) by sapphireruby1918
27 parts Complete
Teenage boys and girls get many chances to fall in love over and over again. They fall in love and overcome from that love very easily. In this phase of life break-up does not hurt much. Friends become happier when someone gets dumped rather than when they get their love. Love rivalry is also very common between classmates and friends. When someone starts feeling for someone, friends become happy. They expect to see a failure. They encourage them but also warn them saying, "Tera Bhi Katega," or "You Too Will Get Dumped." I take the name of this series from a very common phrase of teenagers. In this series I will share some unsuccessful love stories. Don't expect happy ending and don't be sad. These stories are short and crisp just like potato chips. Take these stories lightly as there is nothing wrong in getting dumped or rejected by your crush. These life experiences make the young generation world ready. This series is mainly for BL flash fictions. These stories are unrelated to each other. For my convenient I used seven main characters in this series but they may or may not be the same persons in different stories. There would be no character description as the character of a teenager would change with each passing year or after each failure in love. Enjoy them as they are. If you like these stories please vote and comment. I would reply if you ask questions related to any story or character. These stories are totally fictional; I just took a few references from my daughter's random blabbering about her day at school. Do not match them to any real incident; I may not have any idea of that incident anyway.
