Author
Welcome come to my new story, my lovely readers 😊
let's meet the main characters
Pratik Malhotra
Hey. I’m Pratik Malhotra, 26.
Team Lead in an IT company. Basically, I’m the guy who makes plans, overthinks them, and then ruins them by panicking 😑
People call me logical. I call it “avoiding disasters.”
Best friend = Naeem. Don’t ask me how that happened.... life is full of mysteries 😂
Small fact: if you bring me chai, I’ll be loyal forever ☕✨
Avani Roy
Hi, I’m Avani Roy. 23.
Bank Team Lead – Savings Department (yes, I literally save people’s money AND their bad habits 💼).
I’m a bookworm + chai addict 📚☕
I can be sarcastic, but honestly, I’d rather keep peace than argue.
My best friend is Zoona. She’s my constant, my filmy queen, and my partner in all madness 💖
P.S. I ignore drama faster than bank spam calls 🚫📞
Naeem Khan
Yo! Naeem Khan here ✌️ 26.
Another IT Team Lead (but unlike Pratik, I don’t stress.... I eat 😎).
I’m known for three things: my terrible jokes, my love for biryani 🍗🍛, and my loyalty.
My best bro is Pratik. He’s boring, but someone has to balance my awesomeness 😂
Oh, and I only flirt with one person in this world — my Zoona 💕 She’s my drama queen, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Zoona Ali
Hiiii 💕 I’m Zoona Ali, 23. I’m a college professor right now, waiting for my Master’s results 🤞 so I can start my PhD. journey soon 🎓✨
I’m bubbly, filmy, emotional — and yes, I expect my SRK-style proposal someday 😍🎬
My best friend Avani is my soul sister. Anyone who messes with her has to face me first 💖
And about Naeem.... let’s just say he makes me laugh, annoys me, and flirts shamelessly.... but only with me 😘
