She had met him two years back…
She remembered how she admired his dedication to work and his ethics. He was really young but emitted so much wisdom; it was the first time she would be drawn first to a man’s personae before his looks not to say that he was anywhere far from handsome. His voice, his looks, his character, his person; it all was appealing to her but she had convinced herself that it was pure admiration for a man with befitting personality.

One could imagine her joy when the opportunity came for the bond of friendship to be built, a friendship that quickly turned into “flirtship” and shortly after; a relationship **wow! so many ships**.
She loved him and all of the traits she had earlier admired, even more, the way he loved her and was crazy about her… this relationship seemed perfect.
