But what about the loneliness that comes with it in the first few weeks? That was Muna's life until a gym accident got her falling on Nicklaus Gray, a lawyer, who lives on the floor above hers. But then, her first impression of him, made him her first enemy in the city and their second and third encounters were not so good either.
