"The one time you saw me, there was so much of passion in your eyes; I felt like holding your hand and pausing the moment!" a text message received on Questa's mobile while she was having her breakfast, sunday morning, with her cousin's around.

She couldn't even smile with the sparkle in her eyes, how could she?

Sometimes its just plain innocence which strikes the chord, for Truce it was her mesmerizing look and to her it was his text.

It was just a text but it meant so much to her. She felt like he just wrote down all his feelings in a nut shell.

She started falling for him when he described what he dreamt the previous night- "I saw you walking with a man on a beach but I couldn't see who he was. You looked very happy, like he was all that you wanted." From that day she'd been wishing he would say that it was him who he'd seen with her.

It had all began when Truce had finally got the courage to find her number and began to know her, "She's so friendly, " he tought!

They enjoyed each others company and ultimately she had to ask him WHAT made him talk to her.

There has to be something, right?

It was strange as she didn't at all know him before and to her curiosity, he honestly acknowledged that saying, "I'd been bowled over by you since I first saw you, 4 years ago and wanted to be your freind, and see!! Finally I am," each word dipped in pride.

"Whoa! that's a pretty long time", she exclaimed.

"I hope that doesn't diminish my image in front of you, did it?" feared Truce.

"Umm..I think it has risen", she blushed!

BINGO! It is going great Truce thought!

Questa fancied Truce but he wasn't what she wanted as her boyfriend.

She wanted someone who just pulled her to him with his one sight.

He was that, may be; but not the right key to her heart.

She found no harm in just fancying and flirting with him. Who knows, may be he could actually fit the criteria.

She'd slept late one night after attending to Truce's messages and her book too, keeping the conversation still on.

She got up @ 4 a.m. realising that she was yet talking to him and saw his messages saying "What is the harm in giving a try to a relationship? We both sense that we like each other, then what's the transparent wall in between?!" Even Questa couldn't figure out what was that.

He was alone in his house and he'd offered her to come visit him.

She refused to which he asked "Why??? We are just going to hang out."

Questa thought that this would be crossing a dangerous barrier and so she refused.

Truce thought gaining her would be easy.

Not all flings are.

But you have to work had for something in everything in life.

So why not this.

A/N so this is kinda of a prologue you can say. A narration of introduction before the story actually plunges in.
