The Boy Who Drafted Other People's Futures
Aarav Awasthi knows how to draft everything except himself.
At nineteen, he is a law student with a promising CV, a crowded inbox, unfinished articles, rejection emails, and a phone full of poems he is too embarrassed to call poems. On paper, his life looks impressive. In reality, he is lonely, anxious, ambitious, and still trying to understand the parts of himself he was taught to hide.
When a private manuscript about his first year begins to leak across campus, Aarav is forced to confront the rumours, friendships, betrayals, and silences that once nearly broke him. There is Ritika, the girl he loved wrongly but honestly. Kabir, the boy who arrives like relief and disappears like a habit. Samar, the friend who hides tenderness behind sarcasm. And Dadi, whose simplest question, "Have you eaten?" becomes the language of survival.
Tender, sharp, intimate, and painfully funny, The Boy Who Drafted Other People's Futures is a novel about ambition, shame, queer longing, friendship, family, and the dangerous freedom of finally writing the truth.
It is a story for everyone still drafting themselves.
