    So firstly people.... this book is not my regular book. This is a fanfiction of an Indian TV show. Now don't get me wrong, I am not a fan of Indian TV or this show's the couples. There is just one relationship that indulged me enough to write this story. This is one of those books I wrote for self indulgence during the covid time period. A.K.A from the stash. Read at your own will and convenience... happy reading.
