Robert was driving the car continously taking number of turns. I was sitting silent beside him looking the objects and people passing by from the window. When we passed the street I saw children playing in the park. They were looking innocent and energetic. Those children make me recall all the memories of my childhood. Me and my friends play number of games for hours. How happy I was. I wished that I could get those moments back. But after the accident my life was changed. That accident ruined my childhood and taken me away from myself. I was boating in my thoughts when I feel a warm touch of Robert's hand on my shoulder. In the soft voice he said that we had reached our destination. He open the door and went out of car and then walk to my side and open the gate for me. Then he gave me his hand to come out of car. I was suprise to see our destination. The grass was moving gently in the cool breeze. There was a huge tree with a beautifully decorated tree house. There were wooden steps covered with creepers falling down the tree. We went upstairs through the wooden steps. Inside the tree house, there was two chairs and a table having candle and plates on it. The ground was floored with rose petals. Walls were decorated with balloons of red and white colour. He pulled my chair little to make me sit comfortably. The atmosphere around was pleasant and refreshing. The air was pure. There was silence all around.

Robert:
  Did you like this place?

Susan:
  This place is fabulous. This atmosphere act as a blam to my ailing heart. Thank you Robert for this beautiful place. But how did you came to know about this place?

Robert:
   When my grandfather had expired I was very much affected and depressed. Then I build this tree house and spent hours here to came out of my depression. And I know you like silence and peace. So I brought you here. Alex helped me to make all arrangements for our dinner. I know you don't like her but trust me she is very innocent and will never hurt you.

Susan:
   I never told you that I don't like her. I don't have any problem if you share your feelings with her because she also your friend like I. Thank you Robert for making my day so special. I love y............ I mean to say that,  I love this place alot.

Robert:
  He looked at me and asked I love y......... what. Complete that sentence why you stop in between. For her I am his friend but , for me she was more then a friend. I wished she would say I love you.

Susan:
   I feel shy and red scars devloped on my cheeks. To hide my scars looking to ground I told what you mean by complete the sentence. I mean to say that this place is very lovely. What you thought?

Robert:
    Nothing , I thought nothing. When I look at her glittering face I wished to hug her tightly and say all my feelings in her ears. But I have to control my feelings as it might be so early. I have to give her some time. To drive my  thoughts away I changed the topic. Susan would'nt you feeling hungry? Lets start eating your dinner before it would become as cold as ice.

Susan:
  Yes I am feeling very hungry now. He serve me food. It was red sauce pasta with chilly and corn mixed pizza. There was piece of blackberry cake with chocolate sirrup on it. It was delicious. We completed our meal and after that he droped me to my home. I wished  I could spent some more time with him. I went upstairs to my room and wear pajamas after taking bath. Lying on my bed recalling all the memories of the day. Each moment spend with Robert was unforgettable. Finally after many years I have enjoyed being with someone. Was I was falling in love? No offcourse I cannot fall in love. Robert is just my friend and for him I am also her friend only. My soul feeled so relaxed after long time.

So guys what you think , is it a begining of love? Really they both started loving each other.
