A/N :
The idea for this story came about when I was writing my other book - "Beginning of Love" chapter 17. I initially wanted to expand the story there itself but left it for a standalone story. However, this will be short story. Mostly 10 chapters, at max.

Trying a new writing style for this book. Let me know how it is, down in the comments.

Please vote and comment. Looking forward to meeting you for the next chapter.

Arnav hated her since she could outshine in academics with minimal efforts. He hated that she was spoilt and pampered in both their family. Afterall, she was the daughter his mother always wanted and the apple of their eyes on Khushi's side of the family.

But, as they say, Love and hate are two sides of a very, very thin line.
