Cobi was just a kid when his parents' past away and now he's already 15 years old, he makes himself alive by stealing.

He met this girl named Elyssia that have a same situation with him, he seized her and considered her as his sister.

"K-Kuya.." Elyssia called.

"Yeah?" Cobi answered.

"D-Do you have an extra money with you? I-I have to pay my classmate for our project." Elyssia shyly asked.

"How much?" Cobi asked.

"50 pesos, kuya." Elyssia answered. "K-Kuya, are you sure for letting me study? I mean--"

"Elyssia, you have to go to school, your talent is precious so, don't waste that no matter what happened okay?" Cobi answered.

She don't know what to say so, she just hugged her brother.

"Thank you so much, Kuya." she said, her brother just patted her back.

"Don't mention it, it's my duty."

After 5 years, Cobi is 20 years old already while Elyssia is 16 years old. Elyssia was already graduated in high school.

"Congratulations, my little sister!" Cobi greeted her.

"This belongs to you, Kuya." Elyssia showed her diploma.

"No, it's belongs to you. You made it, are you ready for the next step of your life?" her brother Cobi asked.

"Of course Kuya, as long as I'm with you, I am ready!" Elyssia answered and that's make her brother smile.

At home.

"Elyssia, I'm just going to my job." Cobi said to her, she just smiled and nod.

"Elyssia, can you hug kuya?" her brother asked.

"Of course, kuya!" she answered and walked closer to him and hugged him.

"You know that I love you, right?" her brother asked.

"I know kuya and you know that I love you too, right?" Elyssia asked.

"Of course, I know. I'm handsome that's why you love me." she just laughed.

"So high kuya, so high." she said.

"Alright, I really have to go, take care of yourself while I'm not around, okay?" her brother asked.

"Sure thing, kuya." she answered and her brother smiled at her and kissed her on her forehead.

"Always remember that kuya loves you." Cobi said.

"I love you too, kuya." she said back.

And Cobi walks out.

Elyssia was about to cry when her brother's came back and hugged her;

"I love you." and walks out again.

Elyssia knows what kind of job her brother's have and it's stealing.

At midnight.

Elyssia is waiting her brother to get home so, they would sleep together but, she woke up without her brother beside her.

She fixed herself before to go to her summer job.

She entered at the cafe and looked at the T. V. and then, she froze.

"Five men was found dead outside the Bank of the Philippines after stealing. According to those who saw the incident, the five men fought while they were being arrested and get shot."

She don't know what to do, all she want to do is to see her brother.

"The end." I said.

"Teacher, teacher." the baby boy called.

"Yes?" I asked.

"What happened to Miss Elyssia?" baby boy asked.

"She moved on, she's a teacher now." I answered.

"Just like you, teacher?" he asked and I just nodded.

"Okay, class is over." I said.

"Thank you, teacher." they said and I walked out.

"Hey kuya, I told them how amazing you are again."
