Chapter - 1

Words that are kept in heart, should be uttered before it's too late.

Lying to yourself doesn't bring a single benefit but only regrets.

" I-i've always had a crush on you! " The girl, whom had a crimson red face said while holding onto the hem of her skirt nervously. Her head was facing the ground in embarrassment but with hopes of not getting rejected. Little did she know, there was another girl whom was watching the scene behind the bushes.

' He wouldn't accept you for sure! ' The girl whom hid behind the bushes with the name, Ilestial Zhang Chen Yi said in her mind with a smirk on her face as she did not moved her eyes an inch away from that interesting scene which she seemed to seen it before.

" I'm sorry Andrea. We barely know each other. " The guy rejected with an apologetic face on which only lasts for awhile. He never like girls who confessed their feelings towards him just because of his jaw dropping face.

' Hah! Knew it. Jackson wouldn't accept people like you guys who just like him because of his face. He hates it. ' Ilestial thought in her mind, still not wiping the smirk on her face away. Ilestial had always been a good friend of Jackson—the guy who rejects the girl, Andrea. So she knew and understands him well.

" But, we can try to get even more close. We can try to understand each other. " The girl, with the name Andrea tried to persuade Jackson as she inched closer towards him before grabbing his arm.

" Maybe. " That one word which came out from Jackson's mouth made Ilestial's heart dropped. Her eyes widened with negative thoughts running in her mind.

' No no no, Jackson. I. .' Ilestial sighed, pausing for a few seconds before continuing her words.

' I've always liked you. '

It is true that Ilestial had developed feelings for Jackson a few years ago where they are still close friends. But, she never had the gut to confess her feelings. All of these years, she kept and buried her true feelings deep in her heart and never thought of confessing. Because, one thing for sure, she knew Jackson wouldn't accept her.

That is the reason why she had always been watching how people often confess towards Jackson and knew they're all gonna get rejected. You could say, Ilestial just understands Jackson too well.

" I'm really sorry Andrea. But I've got to go now. " With that, Jackson pulled his hand away from Andrea's grip gently—not wanting to make Andrea mad or boil in anger. He tried to maintain his gentleman attitude, not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings even if he actually hates the reason why the girl confessed.

' Yesh. I almost thought he's gonna accept her. But, even if Jackson accept her. . . I shouldn't care. It's his life after all, why do I even care. ' Ilestial heaved another sigh, as she walked out of her hiding spot with her head lowering. She was deep in her thoughts that she did not realise where she was heading to.

' I do not like him. I take back my words earlier, I must've think too much. He's my friend, only a friend. Nothing more. ' Once again the girl lied to herself, not wanting to accept the fact that she has officially fell in love with Jackson. She had always think that Jackson is way more outstanding than her, where a guy like him deserves someone better.
