Childhood Part 3: No to Confessions

The falling leaves of August have always been nostalgic.

Ever since that month of June, Rielle and Victoria have become the closest of friends.

Rielle would support the actress in her schedules whenever the girl had the chance. She would go to the filming place and watch Victoria as the professional actress she is. The whole management was quite shocked by how the actress begged them to let her friend stay close to her, telling them, 'Please let her stay.' or sometimes, 'I want to talk to my friend'.

Whenever a filming was done and the girl was there. She was even bold enough to demand, 'I want her beside me! Let her come, or else I'll tell Dad' after few weeks had passed since she had met Rielle, this eventually lead their parents to meet each other.

The actress' parents were both lawyers, political lawyers; their names would be often mentioned in news and articles. Some people would say that Victoria seemed to be lost in her path as a joke, seeing that the girl's career took a turn for her family's background, despite the fact that the girl is still a child at the time.

While Victoria's parents are laywers, Rielle's were people in business. Her parents were mostly out of the country for business matters and the absence of her parents had gone to be a normal thing for her and so as Victoria.

Both kids were left alone, being taken care of yaya's or relatives in the stead of a supposed to be loving and supporting parents.

On the other hand, Rielle's feelings for the actor have bloomed quite a bit.

At the start, she was hesitant to approach the boy, but after almost always crossing paths on the set during the series in which he and Victoria had another child, everyone—including the crew—wasn't blind enough to notice that the actress's friend was crushing on the actor. She would always steal glances at the actor while make-up artists would surround him, and Victoria was busy talking to her.

But stealing glances came onto another level; she would sometimes follow the actor around and talk to him in a way that her feelings were transparent and so obvious.

But the actor was blind, maybe too young to understand the girl's admiration for him.

"Here," Rielle handed out a sweet treat to Dillon.

Victoria who just approached them, immediately showed jealousy. "Where's mine?" pouting with her arms crossed.

"T-Thank you..." Dillon said softly and accepted the sweet.

Rielle grinned with satisfaction as she faced Victoria, "Here."

The girl's forgot jealousy as he accepts the candy from Rielle, "That's... wait, cherry? Ugh, I hate this flavour."

"Oh, I didn't know..."

Dillon always thought that it's just a kind gesture coming from the girl or that he thinks that maybe girls are just like that, but he couldn't confirm since Victoria was the opposite.
