Twitchy was his type, and he couldn't help twitching his fingers every now and then. What else was expected of the IT expert? He'd even made his name out of codes. He didn't mind. Love wasn't something that was supposed to be on his plate until she swung in, in his life and turned it upside down - literally. 

This time, yet again love wasn't what was supposed to be on his plate after the bygone. The woman he fell in love with already belonged to someone else. Friendship wasn't something he simply wanted to settle for; regardless of the matter that he knew that he couldn't have anything else. That made him twitchier. He knew that love was something that wasn't supposed to be in his fate because code numbers were not supposed to find partners.

She was the dandelion amidst the stalks of grass that surrounded her. She was the breath of air, in the odour of muggy, slimy creepers. She was yellow in stretches of grey. She was someone, who'd been born herself out from that grey, and pulled her to become the dandelion of the grass. She was tipsy in her own world. She was the one who loved turning people's lives upside down. 

She loved metaphors of the greenery; she loved being called names of flowers. What else do you expect from a botanist? But one experience from the past had made her steer clear away from love. She winked at boys, flirted, had her own fun time staring at the hot bodies; which included one of her best friends too but love was something which she'd reduced to ashes as soon as they were placed on her plate.

What happens when technology meets flora?  

What happens when twitchy meets tipsy? 

What would happen when Twilight and Dusk collide? 

They were yet to know.

At 33, Aryav Singh is Bollywood's reigning superstar-sharp, strategic, and fiercely private. A small-town boy turned screen icon, Aryav views love as a weakness and emotions as distractions, focusing solely on his career. At 23, Sana Upadhyay is a kind and optimistic soul, driven by love and second chances. Balancing work and family, she finds joy in life's little moments, valuing connection over control. Aryav and Sana are complete opposites-he thrives on control; she's all about letting go. He's guarded; she's open-hearted. Yet, when fate brings them together, sparks fly. Will Aryav's defenses withstand Sana's warmth? Welcome to their journey, where two worlds collide, and a new story begins. Snippets : Sana stepped forward, composed and professional. "Hello, Mr. Aryav," she introduced herself formally. "I'm Sana, representing our PR team for today's event." Aryav's eyes met hers, and though his expression was hidden behind his dark shades, there was an unmistakable spark of recognition. He extended a handshake, his grip firm but reserved, and responded, "Good to have you here."................ .........Aryav leaned over, his fingers gently brushing against her bare skin as he carefully lifted the strap back into place. The contact was slow, deliberate-his fingers lightly tracing the line of her shoulder, pausing just long enough to ensure the strap was secure. Sana stirred at the touch, her eyelids fluttering open as the warmth of Aryav's fingers lingered on her skin. .........Sana turned back, a laugh bubbling up as she looked at him. She walked over, her steps light and unguarded, and wrapped her arms around him in a warm, heartfelt hug. Aryav was momentarily caught off guard, but his arms instinctively came around her, holding her close. This hug was not just casual; it was a deep, lingering embrace that went on for over five minutes. Aryav gently pressed her body against his, feeling her softness against him from her chest down to her core.
