Mistaken identity. Unreciprocated first love. Worst first impression. All the bad ingredients that connected Qing and Dayu's fate together. Both of them thought they chose the other one, for obvious reasons. But only one of them got it right. The ot...

Present Day
Qing's POV
I was making coffee; again, feeling my face and grimacing because I still felt the sting of the slap I received some minutes earlier.
########
As I waited for Dayu to get ready, so that we could go to the cafe together, I heard the doorbell ring. My first thought was, it was Dayu's landlord's son, who's in love with Dayu. And I stormed to the door; not even bothering to look at the peek hole.
As soon as I opened the door; I froze because the person standing in front me was not that boy; but someone else. Someone I knew very well; someone who's the last person I wanted to see today or any days.
"Ann..!!What are you doing here!?" I hissed, my brain was already running at that time, trying to find excuses so that she'd go away, and thus wouldn't find out that this was Dayu's apartment.
But I could come up with anything, out of the blue I heard Dayu's voice from the background, "who's that?" If I heard it, so did Ann. She knew that voice as well as I do.
Immediately Ann's face lost its colour and I literally saw the anger flooding in.
"So, it's true!" She hissed back at me before she swung her hand and her palm made contact with the side of my face, so hard, I staggered back a little. She didn't hold back. My cousin, really didn't hold back.
Then, she just pushed me out of the way and barged in; coming face to face with Dayu, who had just walked out of his room.
There's a moment of silence, as Ann and Dayu looked at each other before she ran towards Dayu and lunged herself into Dayu's arms.
If I didn't know the true nature of their relationship, even I would have been jealous of the emotions that bonded them together. Really; I was blind. If only I looked deeper into my cousin's eyes, I would have known that she loved Dayu as she loved me; Like a brother. I might not be able to read Dayu's thoughts, but I would have been able to read my cousin's. If only I wasn't so self centred when it comes to Dayu. If only I wasn't so engrossed in my own turmoil of feelings when it comes to Dayu. I would have seen this bond, the moment I introduced them to each other.
