Mr. Alonso decided to marry Ursula when Emma was thirteen years old. Her parents realized that it just wasn't meant to be.

And that broke her heart. Emma grew up reading dozens of fairytales, so she strongly believed that true love conquers all. When her parents gave her the news of their divorce, it seemed as if true love was just a dumb lie that no one should follow.

So, at the tender age of thirteen, Emma quickly decided that true love didn't exist. So that's how it's been ever since. Three years later.

But what Emma didn't understand was that how could this boy, Jax, have such a strong effect on her?

Emma shut her eyes and turned off the tv and decided that she needed to take a nap.

The next day on the bus, Emma decided to sit on a different spot. Despite the fact that Emma had a crush on Jax, she really didn't want to see him. The effect he had on her was painfully strong.

So, she sat by herself and stared out the window. Then she felt the seat next to her sink a little. Emma turned her head slightly.

Please don't be Jax.

"Hey." It was a girl's voice. "Emma. Right?"

"Yeah. That's me." Emma gave the girl a bright smile. "It's nice to meet you."

"I'm Andi Cruz." She smiled. "Would you like to be friends?"

That was a little odd to ask.

But Emma couldn't refuse.

"Okay."
