Sabina was walking home. She was tired after college. She is supposed to do some house chores and then help her father with works at his shop. That day, she was wondering whether she could do that all. She was walking while deep in thoughts and collided with a young man. "Sorry." They said to each other. They blushed. "I will look where I am going next time," said Sabina. "I am glad that we did... I mean it was my mistake too," said the young man flushed with embarrassment.

Sabina and the young man went their ways. Sabina was very tired when she reached home but she gathered strength and got to her feet to do what she is supposed to do. She went to the kitchen and cooked and cleaned. Her father was overjoyed to see her when he entered the kitchen. "What is my sweet daughter making?" asked her father. "Your favorite, chicken soup," replied Sabina.

Sabina and her father sat together and ate. Then they went to their shop. They were working there when a young man entered the shop. Sabina greeted him. It was the same young man she saw before. The one she collided with. "Hey, what a coincidence! By the way my name is Rayan." "Nice to meet you and my name is Sabina." They talked for a while and Rayan bought some things from the shop.

After a week, Sabina went to a travel agency and was surprised. She met Rayan in the reception. They both were surprised. "Wow, we crossed paths with each other the third time now and we already feel that we know each other very well," said Rayan, "By the way where are you going?" "I am going to Paris for a vacation," said Sabina. They talked and Rayan arranged everything for her. It seemed they had a connection, a magical connection.

Days later, Rayan was going to home from bank when he saw Sabina walking and went after her. Then he saw someone following her. Rayan was worried and kept following the person who followed Sabina and caught the man before he could come close to her. The man yelled and Sabina looked around to see them both. The man was a thief. He apologized to both Rayan and Sabina and went away.

Sabina thanked Rayan and asked him whether he will hang out with her more. She wanted to know more about him. Rayan was overjoyed. He always wanted to know her. Now he has the chance. By chance they crossed paths and became friends. And after three years, they are husband and wife.
