Perry, Mika's brother drove her to DLSU Taft. Makikita mo sa mga mata ni Mika na kinakabahan siya. Ngayon niya kasi malalaman kung nakuha ba siya sa Volleyball team or hindi. She was standing 5'11 tall and undoubtedly good in playing her sport, kaya marami ang gusto magrecruit sa kanya. Pero after some incident in her second year in St. Scho, she has been refusing recruitments from colleges like Ateneo and UP. But after countless convincing from her family and friends, she decided to try-out for DLSU.

Perry: Hey Miks, we're here.

*silence*

Perry: Huy Miks, lutang na lutang ka na naman diyan.

Tulala parin si Mika at nakatingin lang sa kanyang bracelet. It was a silver jewelry and there was an engraved writing on it saying "Seize the moment."

Perry: You know, if nagsasalita pa yang bracelet mo sasabihin niyang napakaganda mo..

Sa wakas ay natauhan na si Mika at narinig ang Kuya niya.

Mika: Huh?

"Kaso nga bingi lang." Perry whispered to himself.

Mika: Ano bang pinagsasabi mo diyan, Kuya? Hindi talaga kita magets minsan.. Lamo yun bigla ka nlng magsasalita.. Hahahah

Perry: Hay nako Mika Aereen. Kanina pa kasi kita sinasabihan na andito na tayo oh..

Mika looked out the window and there it was, the De La Salle University - her dream school. She had never stopped thinking about the day she'd step her feet here, breathe in and say "Finally." She wanted to be a Psychologist when she was still young. She never knew that Volleyball would lead her dreams right now.

"Thanks, Kuya! Thanks for driving me here." Mika said as she was starting to unbuckle her seatbelt.

Mika grabbed all the things she needed, and before she opened the door of the car, she gave his brother a very tight hug.

Perry: Teka teka! Hindi ako makahinga. Nakaka suffocate! Ahh!!

Mika: Makareact lang? Hahah wish me luck Kuya!

Perry: Break a leg, baby girl! See you later okay?

Mika: Bye!!

Bumaba na si Mika and headed straight to Enrique Razon Sports' Complex. While on her way, she heard voices behind her talking out loud and seem to be so excited..

Girl1: This is it! This is really is it is it! Sana makuha tayo!

Girl2: Hahaha! Ano ka ba kambal, sabi nga ni Achi diba? Have faith and leave it to God. Trust me, we'll be in the team.

Girl1: Oh nga! But I'm just reeeaaallly excited ahhhh!

Girl2: Kung hindi lang kita kambal, iisipin kong nababaliw ka kanina ka pa sigaw ng sigaw dyan eh. Haha

"Kambal? Wow.. I've always wanted a twin before.. Siguro nag try-out din to sila sa team. Magagaling ata to sila ah." Mika thought.

Without knowing na nakapigil pala siya habang nakikinig sa kanila, bigla siyang nabangga ng isang tao.

*BUUUGSSSH*

Mika: ARAAAAAAY!!!!!!!

"Sorry!! Hala sorry talaga Miss. Hindi ko kasi sinasadya, nagmamadali ako. I'm sorry talaga! Sorry ha!" Tinulungan niya at kinuha ang mga gamit ni Mika na nahulog.

Mika: Ah eh okay lang. Sorry din hindi ako tumitingin sa dinadaanan ko.

Habang tinutulungan siyang kunin ang mga gamit na nahulog niya, napansin niya na tinititigan nito ang ID ni Mika sa St.Scho.
