Once upon a time, nagkaroon ako ng crush, 'yun nga lang, hindi niya alam ang existence ko. But that one summer, nagbago ang lahat. A short story written by Alyloony in collaboration with Cornetto <3 Movie version: This Time

"Paano ako mag mo-move-on kung nasanay na akong lagi siyang nasa tabi ko? Paano ko kakalimutan ang nakaraan kung pati yung future na binubuo ko ay kasama siya?"

Merong iba't-ibang paraan ang mga tao para makatakas sa reyalidad. Yung iba nagbabasa ng libro, nanonood ng mga drama sa tv, nakikinig ng music. Meron namang nagsusulat, nag d-drawing, nag p-paint, at nag co-compose ng kanta. Pero si Angelique, ang paraan niya ng pagtakas sa reyalidad ay tuwing nananaginip siya.

Five years have passed and finally, Timi is back in the Philippines. Being away and studying culinary abroad, Timi thought she've finally moved on from every pain that she experienced on her teenage years.

Does science or society set up any rules for those kinds of situation? When is it okay to care for someone again? When is it okay to fall in love without the guilt? When is it okay to be with someone again? When is it okay to find solace in someone else? When is it okay to be okay? This is what happened after the Terminal This is the continuation of life.

Sabi nila, lahat ng taong sobrang in love ay nagiging desperada. Kaya naman sa kagustuhan ni Jillian na mahalin siya ni Luke, nagawa niyang nakawin ang pana ni Kupido. At dahil sa ginawa niya, limang tao ngayon ang nanganganib na hindi na mahahanap ang kanilang one true love at idagdag pa ang pag-a-alboroto ni Kupido dahil naudlot ang pagkikita nila ng kanyang asawa na si Psyche.
