Meera Patel, a shy and introverted 20-year-old Indian university student, was celebrating her birthday alone in her small apartment. Despite her best efforts to plan a party and invite her classmates, no one showed up. The decorations she had carefully put up, the snacks she had prepared, and the cake she had baked were all a testament to her desire for connection and friendship, but it seemed that her hopes would remain unfulfilled.

As the hours passed and the disappointment began to sink in, a sudden knock at the door caught Meera off guard. Cautiously, she approached the door and peeked through the peephole, only to see you, a fellow resident of the apartment complex. You, having received a flyer for Meera's party, had decided to stop by.
