Chapter 28: Chance Encounters
First we hopscotch back to 2001, in which we see the first time Aria and Dylan meet and have a truly pretentious exchange that can only be had by college students.
Then, present day, Aria and her friends bump into Rahul and his friends at the bar, and Aria's worlds collide. If you're a desi girl, or have grown up cross-culturally, you might know how weird that can be.

Chapter 30: No Boys Allowed
For a culture that is so obsessed with getting their kids married, Indians are very averse to their children dating. So, in 1997, when Aria gets her first ever Valentine, she has to hide it from her mom and dad. And the secret double life of lies and deception begins, just so she can have a normal American school life.
Then, 20 something years later, her parents want her to get married, after telling her not to date. Make it make sense. Thanks goodness she lied. Aria does have a boyfriend, and she's bringing him home to meet the parents. This can only end badly. So, naturally, Aria goes to her best friend's house for tea, or something stronger, to calm her nerves. Visit with Aria and Hayleigh in Chapter 30: No Boys Allowed, of No Dating Till You're Married, an audiobook podcast.
