1-THE MOONLIT STARRY NIGHT 

It’s a clear sky. The moon is shining brightly. Hundreds of tiny stars are twinkling like diamonds and are reflected on the still water near the beach. The charm and magic of this limitless sky can be deeply enjoyed only in a starlit night. Silence is what you feel at this hour of night. 

The weather is pleasing and wind blowing towards the shore as if muses are whispering through the marshes. 

It is evident that if a young heart is staring at those stars in the sky with hopeful and gleaming eyes, and enjoying the cool breeze then the person is looking for a soul mate. 

Sheena, a young girl of 26, loves to come and enjoy the cool breeze of the sea in a moonlit night. 

Even today she is here. She is wearing a summer blue short dress with knee length and her golden hair is slowing caressing by the cool wind. So beautiful is the view today that her mind is filled with wonder. While watching the stars she is clasping her hands and placed them close to her chest as if to keep herself warm from the cold wind. “Huh! I wish it happens right now”, she utters a few words.

“Excuse me” a male voice interrupted her enjoyment. “Are you lost?”. She turned and saw a young attractive man clad in summer partying dress. He, tucked his hands in his pocket, was giving an appealing and friendly smile to her. 

“Oh! No, I am just…hmmm.. enjoying the sky”, she replied trying to evade direct eye contact. 

“OK. I see. Hi, I am Albert. Birthday partying with my crazy friends out at that restaurant”, said he pointing towards a colorfully lighted restaurant from where noises and music can be heard. 

Albert continued with his words, “It pretty nice out here. A good place to relax and refresh mind”. 

“Yeah! It’s a beautiful place. Ahh, Hi. My name is Sheena”, she said with a curve smile and slowly nodded her head. 

“You live here close by” enquired Albert. 

“No. I am here just for short time with parents” said Sheena. 

“Ok. Family trip” “Yeah! A sort of. I think its too late I should leave” said she, and started walking away from him. 

“Ok! See yeah.” Albert with a tone of bidding goodnite said. 

But Sheena didn’t respond and gave a casual smile but just nodded and lowering her head walked slowly away. 

“Strange!” in a very low voice Albert said to himself and looked towards the sea. 

While she walked away, he turned his head a couple of times watching her and saw finally vanish in the darkness of the night. 

2-THE FIRST TIME 

Next morning Albert while strolling in the little market area with his two friends, laughing and clumsily walking halted at a coffee shop.
