Between Almost and Always

How does it feel to meet the right person too early?

Elodie and Kaeo were never official, no labels, no promises. But in senior high, they were each other's constant. Tahimik na pagmamahal. Siguradong presensya. The kind that felt like forever back then.

But growing up meant choosing different paths.
Elodie left to chase her dreams. Kaeo stayed to carry responsibilities. Hindi sila nag kulang sa pagmamahal-nagkulang sila sa panahon at pagkakataon.

They could have happened.
They could have been an endgame.

But life asked them to grow, just not side by side.

Because sometimes, first love isn't meant to last.

It's meant to teach you who you are... before you become who you're meant to be.
