September 2017- It was a formal gathering. 500 people standing in small groups in a large hall.

Loud music, dance, drinks, lavishing buffet and everyone was just busy…

He was standing in a corner with some of his friends. He was holding 90ml blended scotch on the rocks.
They were checking out girls whilst occasionally flirting with some beauties casually.

And then he saw her. She looked beautiful. She was hot enough to turn heads around. And he of course couldn’t take his eyes away. It felt that he’s stuck, not blinking his eyes, he just glared at her for 40 seconds straight.

She came closer and greeted him. He kept his drink aside and asked if she would like to have anything. His friends were surprised as he was never a gentleman to any other girl ever.

The next 2 minutes 40 seconds seemed liked a smooth discussion. He responded and participated very maturely. Little did he know, he was losing his heart with every word.

Days went by… He couldn’t forget her. That random tiny meeting was bothering him. He wanted to know more. He started finding about her and got to know that they share the same department at work.
