 CHAPTER 3 IS LIVE! 
          
          Hey everyone!
          
          The wait is over! Chapter 3: The Harbour is officially up, and let me tell you... The tension is real. 
          
          If you thought the banter in the stadium was intense, just wait until you see what happens when the adrenaline of match day fades and reality sets in. This chapter is all about what happens off the pitch when a high-stakes, friendly wager collides with unexpected team dynamics.
          
          What to expect in Chapter 3 (without giving too much away!):
          
          The nerve-wracking anticipation of a rostered day off.
          
          Some truly top-tier, chaotic meddling from both squads (because let's be honest, teammates never miss an opportunity to get involved).
          
          A masterclass in overthinking.
          
          A completely different, off-duty side to our favourite players.
          
          A quick snippet to hold you over:
          
          "It was one thing to feel a quiet pull toward a rival. She’d managed that for years. She’d boxed it up, labelled it ‘Professional Respect,’ and shelved it where it couldn't cause any trouble. But this... this was active. This was inviting the opposition onto the pitch."
          
          Grab your favourite snacks, settle in, and get ready for the angst, the pining, and the incredible team banter!

Hey everyone!
          
          First off, I’m so sorry for the long silence and the lack of updates. I truly appreciate your patience and continued support—it means the world to me.
          
          The past few weeks have been absolutely packed. I recently had my external jury for this semester, and I’m super excited to share that I presented my very first short film as a director and writer—alongside my amazing team. The jury saw potential in the project, which is both thrilling and nerve-wracking! Now, we’ve been given the opportunity to reshoot the entire film properly (we originally had only two weeks to make it!) and prepare it for submission to small film festivals.
          
          As the director, I want to give it everything I’ve got so that we can truly make it shine—and hopefully win some awards too! That means my schedule is packed for a little while longer, but this is a huge step in my creative journey, and I wanted to share it with all of you.
          
          Now, about this story…
          I will continue it—Smriti and Ellyse’s journey isn’t over. But it might take me a little time to reconnect with their world and tell their story the way it deserves to be told. I sincerely apologize for the delay, but I promise I haven’t forgotten it.
          
          Thank you again for sticking with me. I’m grateful to have such supportive readers.

I just finished reading your fanfiction, and it's WOW, it completely hooked me for the whole time I was reading which happens rarely. I must say you have a real talent for writing. The words you used, the scenes you have used made the story more real, it was like I was watching the scenes in a movie, or rather it was like the scenes were happening in front of me. It's the best book i have read in a while, I hope you write the updates soon as I have already checked your latest notification that you are going to focus on other things, and I wish you good luck for it. :)
          P.S. ~ don't get insecure about your writing, you are writing it very well. And even if there are some things on which you can improve, they will get improved as time passes. :)

Alright, so… I don’t really know how to say this.
          
          I’m not okay. Mentally.
          
          I’ve been so… so stupid, putting my energy into things that don’t actually matter in my life.
          
          I don’t want to unload all my emotions onto you, but I think I needed a serious wake-up call. And RCB’s match was exactly that.
          
          Cricket used to mean everything to me. After COVID, I gave up so easily—but not anymore.
          
          Sitting in that stadium, watching the match, I imagined myself back in 2018, still playing on the pitch. And that hit hard. I could’ve still been playing if I hadn’t let go so easily. But that stops now. I’m giving myself one last shot to see where this takes me.
          
          So, I’m taking a break. From everything. I need to focus on what actually matters.
          
          I don’t know how long it’ll take to get back on my feet, but when I do, I’ll try my best to finish this book for you.
          
          Until then, this is goodbye—for now.
