A Shubman Gill Fanfiction
Vaidehi Randhawa has built her life exactly the way she wanted.
At twenty-four, she's the founder of Brew Theory, one of Mumbai's fastest-growing café chains. Her days are filled with expansion plans, investor meetings, and endless work hours as she prepares to take her brand beyond Mumbai. Living in a luxury apartment with her younger sister, Vaidehi's world revolves around ambition, responsibility, and staying firmly in control of everything around her.
Then her new neighbour moves in.
Shubman Gill.
India's cricket star.
And the single most disruptive person Vaidehi has ever met.
What starts as an irritation quickly turns into an all-out neighbourhood war. Late-night noise, unexpected interruptions, and constant clashes leave them on opposite sides of every argument. Vaidehi is convinced Shubman is impossible to deal with, while Shubman can't understand why the woman next door seems determined to hate him.
But as the weeks pass, the lines between annoyance and familiarity begin to blur.
Between accidental conversations in elevators, coffee shared after exhausting days, and moments neither of them planned for, they slowly discover the people hidden behind the public versions of themselves.
To the world, Shubman is the face of Indian cricket.
To the world, Vaidehi is the young entrepreneur everyone admires.
But behind closed doors, they're just two people trying to figure out life while carrying expectations far heavier than anyone realizes.
As friendship grows where rivalry once existed, both are forced to confront something neither of them saw coming.
Because sometimes home isn't a place.
Sometimes it's the person living right next door.
This Neighbour Next Door is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance filled with witty banter, found family, career dreams, cricket chaos, and two people discovering that the best things in life often arrive completely uninvited.
