What is a crush but a fleeting infatuation? Or is it really? Satyavati, despite being a hopeless romantic, has spent her entire life alone, dealing with a mental trauma she never managed to get over. Even after being the dearest professor, a successful novelist, an adored daughter, a beloved sister and the fan favourite of her Dojo the void in her heart has never really been filled by that special someone. Now that she has reached the autumn of her life a romantic connection is no longer in her bucket list. But love has a mysterious way of finding its way into your life when you are least expecting it. For Satyavati it comes in the form of Tasha, one of the students from her self-defence class. Satyavati could have laughed the attention from the young child off like all others that had a crush on their handsome mentor before; but surprisingly her heart starts fluttering in emotions she never knew she had. Tasha is forty years younger than her. Then again what is age but a number? Or is it really? Problems pile up when the root of Satyavati's traumatic past comes looking for her after years of slumber. To add to the burden a scar even Satyavati didn't know she had revealed itself at the same time. In a world where a love like theirs is considered a sin can Satyavati find her happily ever after with the woman she fell for? ****** A/N: All the characters, events and incidents of the story are fictitious and bear no resemblance to any real people or incidents.
