Where Silence Met Sunshine
He believed in rules.
She believed in moments.
Neither believed in love - until they collided.
Dr. Rameez Qureshi is thirty-two, a professor of Urdu literature, and dangerously composed. He lives in crisp white kurtas, drinks his chai at a precise temperature, and edits his words - and emotions - with surgical care. Silence is his comfort. Order is his refuge. Love, he believes, is a beautiful theory best not tested.
Until Haya Zahra spills hers magics into his perfectly arranged world.
Twenty-two, loud in laughter and soft in faith, Haya is a journalism student with ink-stained fingers, mismatched earrings, and a heart that feels everything at full volume. She talks to stray cats, names her notebooks, writes Urdu poetry she swears isn't romantic, and refuses to dim herself for anyone - least of all a man who looks like silence stitched into human form.
Set in the warm chaos of Lucknow - where homes smell like cardamom, families interfere out of love, and chai is always brewing - Chand Aur Chai is a slow-burn, opposites-attract romance filled with soft banter, emotional tension, and moments that linger long after the page ends.
✨ A grumpy professor × sunshine student
✨ Quiet glances, accidental conversations, and almost-confessions
✨ Family chaos, faith, poetry, and domestic warmth
✨ A love that grows gently - and then all at once
If he is the quiet before prayer,
she is the laughter after.
And sometimes, love doesn't arrive like thunder -
it arrives like chai, warm and unavoidable.
