Against All Odds

Selene dwells with her rich father, together with her brother. She lost her mother at a very young age, thus, giving her the responsibility to take care and watch over them. As the only girl, she strives hard to make her family complete even if the two boys in her life can't even talk without getting into a pool of heated discussions.

She seeks to do best at all the things she do which makes her father the proudest of her. Like her name, she is beautiful, kind, reliable, secluded, and serene.

When she met him, she reached her hands for him. Soon, she found herself slowly relying on him. She lowered her armour and gave away every bits of her.

Agustin is a troubled orphan guy who interprets life as unforgiving. He chose to be alone so no one will weep once he's gone. No one would even know he lived. He doesn't want others to feel what he felt when he was left untended.

He is scarred; he is hopeless.

When he met her, he pushed her away but to no avail. He then backed down his guard, lowered his sword and risk his safe space.

Just as when you thought it's a perfect love story, things went downhill.

She's ready to sacrifice her comfortable and reserved life just to be with him.
But he didn't want her to break apart. If it means he should drown just to save her, even if it will cause her to hate him entirely, he will let her go.

And so he did.

She came back loathing him, as he wished.
And he swore he'll win her over.
