Why do we always fall with the things we know we couldn't have?... Or maybe, there are things that we can truly have, if we just try to do everything to get it.

You know, being the only girl in the family makes me actually lucky. I can have anything, and I can easily get everything if I wanted to. But a chance to be with him?

Nah, not in this lifetime.

"You're zooning out, you okay?" I blinked at that.

I looked up at kuya Darius, naglapag siya ng glass of milk and muffins sa harapan ko. I immediately took a bit of it, napapikit pa ako sa lasa no'n.

"Yes naman..." I said nalang para he won't try to ask more questions pa.

He stared at me for a few seconds before he turned his back, bago pa siya makahakbang ay tinawag ko na siya. Ihh, ang gulo ko lang.

"Kuya..." I called.

Nilingon niya lang ako but he did not talk, like he's waiting for whatever I'll say. I was a bit nervous because of how serious he is, but I know better.

"I have a... crush." I opened up.

That's when his brows furrowed. I bit my lower lip. "And he's uhm, way older than me. He's a Law student—"

"Chandler?" He blurted out that made my mouth dropped open!

Just how?! There's no way na nahahalata niya ako na laging nakatingin doon sa lalaki... Or Chandler is just popular in our University? I'm shock!

"H-How..."

"Hindi ganon kadami ang Law student sa University para hindi ko siya makilala, Hezekiah." My heart beat faster than usual because of nervousness, especially when he said that seriously with my name on it!

"W-Well?" I gulped.

I'm anxious, seriously! I hate it pa naman kapag galit si kuya sakin, all of them naman. It's just that, kuya Darius's being mad is a different kind of story.

"He's a good man. I can support you, but not until you're 18." He said with finality then left.

I pouted, a bit down. But at least he'll going to support me, right? Kesa naman siya pa ang pinaka hahadlang, I don't want a fight... with them of course.

After that talk, I quickly finish my breakfast and went to my room so I can prepare na dahil may group project pa kami. Good thing na wala kaming training because if meron my schedule would be really doom.

The weather is very fine today, so I chose to wear a summer dress nalang, I partnered it with my flat black sandals para more comfortable. I also tied my hair up. I just put a baby powder and my favorite perfume and I'm ready to go! 

I put my phone, wallet, towel and basic hygiene in my small bag before I went down to find my brother dahil sa kanya ako magpapahatid.

Luckily I found him agad sa patio dahil I'm 5 minutes late na! Ang sabi pa naman ni Chachi ay medyo malayo ang bahay nila, she sent me their location and I think 10-20 minutes ang byahe.

"You sure about this place?" My brother asked all of sudden nang makarating na kami.

I nodded as I unbuckled my seatbelt. I looked outside. Well, the surroundings look good naman. The houses are pretty simple, not big and elegant as our but I like the style. Also, there are so many threes and green, the scenery can surely give me a peace of mind.

"I'll call you kapag papasundo na 'ko." I said while chatting with my mates group chat to inform them na I'm already here na.

"You should." He cleared his throat. "Chandler's house is just around the corner."
