Two families. An arranged marriage. 
What could possibly go wrong?

A story filled with love, laughter and lots of embarrassment.
_________________________________________________
"You can't find someone so pretty, smart, funny, stubborn, mature, childlike, fearless, shy, insecure, emotional, no bullshit; all at the same time."

"You're like a broken compass. You are either happy or just fucking annoyed with everything. Either way, you don't know exactly how you feel and what you want."

Despite not wanting to get married, when Naira's family insists her to tie the knot, she decides to give Ayan a chance. Cocky, friendly, and extremely attractive, he shares an unlikely trail of secrets that haunt his past and come knocking down his present. Getting kidnapped, temporarily adopting a seven-year-old, attending a marriage, making new friends... Naira does it all. Amid all the chaos, she'll find not only love but also herself.

"Your laugh wrinkles your forehead. It touches my foolish heart."

"You're like a book I keep on reading but can't remember. Every time I read, I find a new section, a new paragraph, a new sentence."

The characters are both Indian and reside in Delhi as of now.

What a mess

"She feels so much. Just doesn't know how to show it as others do, which is okay for me because I like her for who she is, not who she should be."

I look at her in horror, my mouth agape. There's no way I can handle both Ansh and Ayan in the same house. I'll go crazy...more than I already have.

"Mom, that's not a good idea. Why bother him?" I start. "He has a life too, you can't just ask him to leave that and take care of me- I mean, us."

"I thought about that at first too but all of my worries dissipated when Ayan assured me that it won't be a problem. In fact, he can't wait to spend time with Tara," she gives me a stare- the stare; the one where she scrutinises me and judges all of my actions, "What did you do to the poor guy? He wouldn't stop asking if you'll be okay with him staying with you. Said he was scared of you..."

So that's what he meant by very soon.
