1 PROLOGUE:THE GIRL IN MY ROOM

Aisha reclined on her polyster chair beside her excritoire her eyes were fixed on the latest novel that she was leafing, Broken flowers by robert M Drake. She had a buffonish grin on her face despite what she was reading , the unusal reason behind her smile was the low grunts and snoring of the lovely woman in her hostel room.She was fascinated in herself that what on earth had forced her to invite this woman to her room despite the fact that Bhawana(the woman) had been constantly denying ..... what was it that attracted her towards her.....she was confused but she knew one thing that there was some familar vibes that she got from her, those kinda vibes that had taught her love. But she couldn't be in love with her could she be she had just met her,was love at first sight possible?This ain't a novel or Shakespeare's paly she kicked herself mentally.I need to get a hold over myselfshe shook her head in utter disgust.

She sat there watching her tossing in the bed,it made her want to sleep too but she was too scared to close her eyes ,she was scared that those things that she'd been running from for so long.... she would see them again and she didn't wanted to grow weak for this time there was no one to hug her and tell her "Sweet girl it's alright I'm with you even when you can't see me.You have to figure outthat things don't always work the way you want them to and that sometimes you have to deal with the implausible ,it will all hurt despite all this you have to realize that, till the day you feel pain you are alive,for it hurts only when you love dearly and that's means you are in a true sense human-" Aisha out of the blue was vagued from her inner notions when Bhawana drowsily woke up and coughed, she shifted from her chair to the iron bed next to her and with concern in her eyes rubbed her back with her palm.

"Are you alright? Should I get you water?" Aisha asked,touching her temple with the back of her hand to check if she had fever.

"No it's alright..... am good.why are you up so late in the night?" bhawana answered.

"I told you I don't sleep, by the way you look cute while you are sleeping, it's like watching a baby and you low grunts that's really funny. "

Bhawana sat up crossed legs on the bed and smiled at Aisha's keen remarks she was fascinated by how could someone be such a kind soul. She wondered why had Aisha let her stay in her for the night anyone else wouldn't have done it.... she had no mattress that was her problem but after meeting her(Aisha) she didn't at all felt that it was just her problem,she felt so good about her.

"So if you are not gonna sleep I guess you are gonna have to bear the chattering me"she smirked.

"chattering is fine,even I'm one of the chatter box"

"Is It? So.... we don't know each other yet you insisted me that you are fine with sharing the room with me... I mean .....no offence but don't you think that's kinda stupid to let someone you don't even know.... to sleep..in your room.I could be a serial killer. "she bit her lower lip to veil her smile.

"Rather than stupid I'd term it kindness,and as far as my knowledge values like kindness exist. "aisha grinned

Bhawana goggled at aisha, her smile betraying her,she tucked the strands of hair falling on her face behind her ear, and in utter awe shook her head softly.

"Has anyone ever told you that you are adorable? How can you be so poise and so calm? "

"Will you give up with the flattery already! You are making me blush. "she admitted, covering her face with the book in her hand.

"Awe! I'm so in love with you "

Aisha frowned.

"Whoa! I gotta stop you right there,you are using a quite diplomatically big word be careful of the word 'love'"

"Hmm...why is it so huh! what makes you think love is diplomatic ?"

There conversation started takimg shape in the direction that Aisha didn't wanted it to, she knew she couldn't talk further ir her secret would be out, something that she had hidden for so long how could she let it out,but then her inside also assured her that nothing would the woman she was with right now didn't even know her and what harm could it possibly do to tell her and let the burden of her heart to lessen,bit then again she was confused about how many times. people had broken her trust and how lonely she was when they did it... how long had it taken her to grow back to the young chripy girl that she now was, she couldn't risk it all again.

"Hey,all good? "she muttered

"Hmm... "aisha pondered.

"Don't hold things back it will hurt.... I'm here if you need me. "she hinted realizing the precipitous amend in the situation "I'm going to sleep"she put in and lied back on the bed covering her whole body completely.

Aisha sat there pondering on the notions of the women who had triggered the feeling of love in her,she recalled the memories with her,the fact that back then she was so stupid near the women made her smile, JULIET the word traumatized her thoughts, she was scared that she might lose her and just because of that she had stopped talking to her but now she was reminded of her again and this time she wasn't gonna look back.... she took out her pen and her notepad and began scribbling all again.... this time to really send it. She puffed a huge amount of air and told herself everything would be fine... and she began her LETTER TO JULIET
