It's 7pm in a foggy December and fairy lights are twinkling all over at "The Rose Buds".

Inside the store, a young girl as beautiful as a rose is arranging the flowers at its shelves.

Jhilmil be quick beta(son), we have to close now...it's getting late. Came a voice from the cash counter at the back of the store.

Coming Maasi(mother's sister)- came a soft silk voice.

She is Jhilmil, a real beauty of 20 years old. She works as the florist at the store with her only family maasi, Sanjana Rai, who is a widow but a mother to this young girl.
Together they own The Rose Buds.

Jhilmil leads a very satisfied happy life as of now. She is the Perfect example of the Girl next door.
She is gifted with gardening skills and creates magic with flowers and plants.

Just then, both the ladies were about the lock the front door, they heard a voice almost yelling at them..."Please Don't Leave"!

Jhilmil turned around to see a handsome man looking towards her with hope.

She nodded and her maasi sighed co she knew Jhilmil can never turn down a needy person.

It was Sid. He came almost panting ...and said- Ma'am can i please have some flowers, it's for our mother.

Jhilmil said- You certainly can! Come on in.

With that they entered the flower shop and Sid looked around.
He smiled looking at the display and said- Wow!!! This is major VM. I mean the display looks so pleasant to the eyes.

Sanjana said- this is all because of my niece, Jhilmil. She is the Florist, the heart of this place.

Jhilmil smiled and asked- Thank you so much. Which flowers do you want, Sir?

Oh! Call me Sid, I am not very comfortable with the word "sir".

To this the three of them chuckled.

Someone cleared his throat and they all turn around.

They met a standing handsome hunk who was looking intensely around the shop. And just Then his eyes fixed upon Jhilmil.

Yes Sir?? How may I help you! - A hasitant Jhilmil said.

Sid said- Hey Buddy, you here! Oh! He is Raghu, my Bro!

Jhilmil felt wierd under Raghu's intense gaze but she just gave a weak smile.
She walked towards the shelves and asked- So, which one do you want?

He felt a strange pull in his stomach at her silky voice and spoke in a Deep voice- Rose!!!!

What?

I want roses for my mother. - said Raghu not averting his eyes from the Beauty in front of his eyes.

How many?? - asked Sanjana, this time.

As many as you have in your store. - told Raghu.

Jhilmil including the two others, gaped at him but she quickly turn to Sid and gave him a "is-he-serious" look.

I am Serious!!!! She heard Raghu again.

Amused, She just said ok!

And began to collect all the rose bouquet from shelves. She felt his intense gaze at her every move. She was uncomfortable but dodged the feelings and quickly put forward all roses and asked her maasi to make the bill.

Sid paid the bill and Raghu took all the flowers to his car.

Back in the store both maasi and Jhilmil were surprised that what the hell just happened?

Sanjana patted her shoulder and said- Don't think much beta. And now let's just lock the store and leave.

When they turned towards their i10,
She again felt a tingling sensation at her back. She turns around only to find Raghu still looking at her through the closed window, all intense. Their eyes met for a couple of seconds and soon Raghu stromed out in his Audi.

Well, that was wierd!!

Get in Jhilmil, fast!! She came to reality with her maasi's voice and hopped in and they drove away.

While in Audi,
Bro! What was that all about??? So many roses!!! Are you even real!!!! Mom would go crazy looking at them!!!- asked Sid

Nothing!!! Raghu wishpered.

But Raghu was in a wonder land. He was stumped by the beauty he just saw and was under the spell of her dark brown captivating eyes.
He had never felt this way before for any girl all his life.

She was something from above, His ROSE, in his life that is full of thrones.

She was the Rose for the Beast.
