one step to love

Vlad, 22, is the captain of the football team at St. Xavier's College in Mumbai. He's a cheerful, confident, and slightly rebellious guy. He excels in both academics and sports. Nika, 22, is a gentle girl who always excels in exams; she's also the best dancer in the entire college. She's Vlad's classmate, and they both harbor a mutual hatred due to their constant rivalry.

In two months, their college was holding its annual festival, featuring a variety of events, from sports and dance to debates, and they were both assigned to events they knew nothing about. Vlad was assigned to dance, and she was enrolled in the sports club to join the soccer team.

Left with no other choice, Vlad turned to Nika, his sworn enemy and a brilliant dancer, for help, asking her to teach him how to dance. She agreed only on one condition: he had to teach her how to play soccer, as she knew Vlad's football skills well, having captained the soccer team. They became enemies with benefits, gaining certain academic advantages while maintaining their enmity.

Two months had passed, and they spent their time teaching each other the skills they excelled at and bickering about what they enjoyed. They discovered new sides to each other, unwilling to admit they were falling in love, remaining rivals with a renewed attraction. Vlad was proud of Nika, who had won a gold medal in soccer with her team.
IT SEEMS YOU'VE FALLEN IN LOVE...
