Chapter 1: Childhood Crush
I was once a believer of happily ever after. Hopeless romantic kung baga. At a very young age, I started to plan how my love story would be. I want to make it sure it would be the best Love Story ever existed in the history. Movies, books, anime. All of them contributed and injected enough ideas how my story would flow in perfection.
And a princess wouldn't be complete without a knight in shining armour, right?
I really like a boy who I mentally visualized with me facing and conquering the world. The one which I can safely held my hand without any doubts, without any reservations. The one which I can assure that can take care of my heart no matter what circumstances we face through. But I guess a kid has a very different perspective.
Every morning, I would wake up early and wouldn't go out of my room unless I'm properly dressed and well groomed. Alam ko kasing anumang oras ay makikita ko siya sa bahay. Gusto kong maging presentable sa harapan niya. Yung tipong hindi maaalis ang mata niya sa tuwing lalapat ito sa akin.
As I'm going down the stairs, due to my clumsiness, I didn't notice an umbrella and accidentally step on to it. I fell and broke my ankle. I cry loudly but no one heard me. Until someone went out from the back door and I saw him rushing his way towards me.
"Yzabelle, what happened? Okay ka lang ba? Saan ba ang masakit? Stop crying. Hush," He said while caressing my back to stop me from sobbing.
I can't utter a single word not because of the pain but because of him. My system literally bug down and I couldn't say anything.
Bago pa ako makapagsalita ay binuhat na niya ako paakyat sa kanyang likuran papunta sa kwarto ko. Pinahiga niya ako sa aking kama at hinawakan ang apektadong paa ko.
"Ouch Kuya Xylem. It hurts a lot," I'm calling him kuya not because I wanted to but he wanted me to call him so. Isang taon lang naman ang tanda niya sakin but I don't mind since I really like him.
"Teka lang Yz, tatawagin ko lang sila Tito para malapatan agad yan ng first aid. Wala kasi akong alam dito eh," Sabay kamot niya sa kanyang ulo. Those little getures made me fall for him even more.
Akmang aalis na siya nang hawakan ko ang kamay niya. Nagulat siya sa ginawa ko."K-Kuya Xy, please don't go. Can you please stay here with me?" I look at him intently and use my puppy eyes to him.
He was about to say something but he chose to sigh and then smile. He sat beside me while I'm lying down on my bed and kiss my forehead.
"If this will make you better then I won't leave you Yz." It's just a simple sentence but It made my cheeks heat up.
He stayed with me and didn't dare even to stand up. I endured the pain and hold myself from crying coz I don't want him to know that I'm still hurting. He'll might call Dada and I don't want that coz he'll probably leave me. We stayed in that position until I fell asleep.

Nagising ako nang naramdaman kong may sumuklay sa buhok ko. I opened my eyes automatically hoping that I'll see him but I saw my Dada instead. I was disappointed but I still manage to smile.
"Princess baby, are you feeling better now?" Malambing na sabi ni Dada.
Nang tiningnan ko ang aking paa ay napansin kong nakabalot na ito sa bandage. "Yes Da. I already feel better now," I answered with a smile.
