1 Past Flashback: Admiration from Afar

It all happened with a silent BANG! Juliana saw Romero for the first time. She saw in her mind's eye her first love start to bloom. But she was shy and afriad of saying hello. She silently suffers with a rising curiosity. Sooner than she realizes, she walks up to him and says her first "hello". He too is shy and utters in a low voice "hello". Sparks slowly rise and dance around them.

Time passed by her slowly like drifting smoke. She silently waited for his reply. She waited hour after hour. Juliana started to think up theories as to his silence. She waited for his pigeon with a tied note dangling from it's leg. Ah finally a bird flew to her. She caught the bird and read his scrawled note "I will be waiting for you." Time stood still for a bit, then she wrote a message back saying: "Just wait for me a little while longer. " She smiled and tied her message to the bird and set it free.

Juliana from that day forward started to dream of Romaro. Her heart gave out happy little cries whenever she caught a glimpse of him. He likewise silently admired her. It wasn't until two months later that they actually started to talk and interact. It was a slow love that brewed.
