Description
Sahaja is our girl. Fifteen-okay, almost sixteen. Living in a house where the walls are thin, emotions thinner, and someone is always yelling "STUDY!" ...while Amma and Appa watch serials in the next room. Privacy? Myth. Microwave? What's that? The fridge wheezes like it ran a marathon. Sahaja folds her dreams like old clothes-quietly, and out of sight. She knows when to nod, when to vanish, and when to scream into a pillow. This is a story of middle-class chaos, secret ambitions, and love rarely said out loud- but always packed into your tiffin. Welcome to Sahaja's world. It's loud. It's nosy. It's unapologetically Indian. And somehow, it still feels like home. If you've ever fought over the bathroom, hidden feelings in lunchboxes, or been told 'no' with just a look-this story is yours too. Main Characters: Lakshmi (Amma) - Serial-watcher. Emotional blackmail expert. Swears by Vicks. Ravi (Appa) - Silent until provoked. Weapon: newspaper and guilt. Sagar (20.11) - Almost-adult. Musical secrets. Still fears Amma's slipper. Sahaja (15.8) - Quiet rebel. Sarcasm fluent. Dreams folded neatly. Navya (13.4) - Chaos gremlin. Secret-spiller. Would fight God for Dairy Milk. (Flashbacks show them two years younger, when things were simpler and just as loud.) This one's about to get so, so Indian. #Yourdamnlife
