Love is blind

Is love blind or is it in reality a myth.

Muskaan was very happy today. It was her first day of college. After 2 years of hard work, she would now be able to enjoy the real world, away from the protection of her doting parents. She was excited to make new friends, may be she will get her best friends like Ron and Hermione. Oh well, she was a harry potter fanatic. And couldn't help herself living in the dream world created by JK Rowling and colored by her own imagination.

She reached college and saw a couple of girls who would be her class fellows chit chatting. She joined them and introduced herself. "Hi, I am Muskaan. Friends call me Muski. How are you all doing?" After the usual greetings, the group continued its previous discussion which was about something apparently known as "Or kutt".
"What's that?" Innocent Muskaan asked them.
"Oh! you don't know about Orkut. Wait, I will send you an invitation today itself. It is awesome to catch up with friends", one of the girls Neha told her.
"Oh right, thanks"
"You have a email address?"
"Oh yes I do", Muskaan said while thanking God in her mind. She had made one just a few days back.
"Great. Write it down for me and I will send you one positively by tonight", Neha told her while turning to continue their discussion.

The college day turned out to be a pretty normal one, albeit a lot of exhaustion and the lessons turned out to be pretty boring and useless. No revolutionary magic lesson. Welcome to engineering college, and real world.
Muskaan got back home and opened her new laptop to promptly find the invitation from Neha.
"Oh Wow! The girl is fast", Muskaan thought to herself.

She eagerly completed the signing formalities and tried to get hang of the interface and the purpose. Pretty soon, she had found her magical world, the virtual world of internet. She got totally engrossed in it.
And started to make new friends, people who she thought was from her year. Although she had never talked to them, but it seems a norm to add people with a few mutual friends.

One day, she found out a Harry Potter Community, in which she found a quizzing thread. She didn't know it, but something as simple as joining a community was going to take her into a different world.
