We Were Better Anonymous

Mihira Rao was used to disappointment.

Bad marks. Unrealistic expectations. Silent dinners. The exhausting feeling of watching everyone else move forward while she stayed stuck in the same place.

Joining one of Hyderabad's most competitive IPMAT coaching institutes was supposed to be her fresh start.

Instead, she found Dhruv.

Cold. Brilliant. Untouchable.

The kind of boy teachers admired and students feared.

They hated each other instantly.

But every night, hidden behind anonymous usernames and late-night conversations, Mihira found comfort in someone who understood her better than anyone else ever had.

Someone honest.
Someone addicting.
Someone she never wanted to lose.

The only problem?

The boy she was falling for online was the same boy she couldn't stand in real life.

And when the truth finally comes out, not everything survives the reveal.
