So There's This Boy...

"Nothing is as compelling as an almost."

₊ ⊹₊ ⊹✧⊹₊ ⊹₊

Myra Clarice Alinas is a hopeless romantic who's always waiting for the next guy to sweep her off her feet but always stumbles when finally faced with love, quite literally...

At 18, she was in the high school gymnasium when Alexei Ambré walked in and she tripped on her own two feet, falling off the treadmill.

At 19, she was staring at a flower shop across the street when she collided with a pole and fell back on Eli Medina, who was on his way to his part time job.

At 20, she got so drunk at her friend's party that she slipped on the stairs and landed at the bottom of Elijon Villarosa's basement.

Finally, at 21, she decided it would be her year clean of any more clumsy incidents with love. Except, Mikhail Ambrosio didn't quite sweep her off her feet. In fact, she got tired of waiting and decided she would be the one to do grand, romantic, gestures. Until she realized he wasn't the soulmate she was looking for.

Now at 24, Clarice is still single and catching flights, while friend after friend pop up with their engagement rings. She starts to wonder if there was anything she was doing wrong for her love life to turn out like this. Can fate truly have no one left for her? Or did she simply pass him by and didn't notice he was 'the one' after all?
