Has anyone ever told you that you're good at something all your life -
But doing that thing slowly eats away at your soul?
Meet Khyati, twenty-two, the invisible engine of a five-star hotel: greeting VIPs, apologising for disasters she didn't cause, and collecting panic attacks like loyalty points. Her parents call her their strength. Her boss calls her irreplaceable. Her long-distance boyfriend calls at 2 a.m. with cheesecake and promises.
But no one asks her what she really wants.
When the cracks begin to show, Khyati spirals-from fluorescent night shifts to therapy waiting rooms, from monsoon-drenched Goa beaches to a keyboard lit by blog posts no one knows she writes.
Check-Ins and Chaotic Beginnings is a luminous, soul-baring debut about burnout, heartbreak, and the soft, stubborn art of starting over. Stirred with midnight cheesecake, salted with sarcasm, and lit by the glow of a single twinkling balloon, Khyati's story asks one burning question:
If the world keeps handing you someone else's script -
will you dare to write your own?
