Ellina Skye R. Montemana was never the type to get attached easily.
She hated temporary things. Temporary feelings, temporary people, temporary promises. To her, everything eventually leaves anyway, so what was the point of holding on too tightly?
As a pre-med student chasing the dream of becoming a surgeon, Elli spent most of her days trying to survive quizzes, exams, and the pressure of building a future she badly wanted. Love was never part of the plan.
She was never serious when it came to love, even after having countless flings.
Until Liam Escallante happened.
That one classmate she barely noticed slowly became someone she kept looking for without realizing it. The kind of person who stayed calm while everything around them felt messy. The kind of person who somehow became part of her everyday life.
And somewhere between long quizzes, library afternoons, late night study, and ordinary college days, Elli found herself feeling something she never intended to feel.
But people change and so as dreams.
And sometimes, even the right people meet each other at the wrong time.
Years later, after choosing different paths and leaving certain memories behind, Elli unexpectedly crosses paths with Liam again.
Some feelings return quietly. Some memories never really leave. And some people... or person...no matter how much time passes, still feel familiar.
But maybe not every love story is meant to last.
Maybe some people are only meant to find each other long enough to change one another... before life eventually pulls them apart again.
