"I actually think that Elijah is a nice guy. But isn't it too early to say that you like him?" Timothy said what was on his mind."Does it take a long time to like or fall in love with someone? I am not going to waste my time waiting for him to make a move. I am going to do something." Elisse stated, while looking determined."But what if he's in love with someone else? What if he already has a girlfriend? And what if he only sees you as a friend?" Tim started bombarding her with questions."Whatever happens, at least I knew to myself that I did everything I can. And I won't have any regrets later on..." Elisse relayed, in a confident manner.Timothy just nodded in return, without saying anything. But deep inside, he is hurting and jealous at the same time...==============================Marian looked around the basketball court of Palmridge High School, while feeling a sense of nostalgia, washing over her.Several decades have passed since the Basketball Championship Game happened
Elisse is currently at the Arrival Area inside the airport. She is holding a cardboard which has something written on it, which says:"Welcome back home, twinnie!"She is now waiting for her twin brother, Elliott, who's coming back home from Switzerland for a holiday vacation.Elisse secretly watches her father who is standing beside her. Even though she can't see any emotions on his face, she knows that he is excited to see Elliott again.She lets out a big smile when she finally saw a familiar face walking out from the door, while looking around..."Elliott!" Elisse calls for her twin brother.Her brother looks at their direction, while grinning from ear to ear. He hurriedly pushes his luggage cart towards their direction."Dad! Ellie!"The three of them gave each other big, bear hugs, after a long time of not being together."We're so glad you're back, Elliott. Your sister and I missed you a lot." Edward smilingly told his son."I can say the same thing, Dad. And what's with the fr
Elijah's eyes followed Elisse as she quickly runs away from them. Why did she suddenly run? Did they do something wrong?He snaps out from his reverie when he suddenly heard Elliott laughing out loud as if there's no tomorrow. He wondered on what's so funny that he started laughing."Just a friendly advice, my friend. Be careful from now on. Looks like you're the next victim." Elliott mysteriously announces."Huh? What do you mean by that?" Elijah asked in confusion."Oh, just wait and see." Elliott said in return, while chuckling.Elijah can't really understand what's going on, but he decided to go with the flow. Anyway, Elliott and Elisse looks harmless..."Anyway, let's just wait for my sister, then, we'll eat." Elliott informs him.Elijah secretly gets himself ready on what's going to happen next...=============================Elijah, Elliott and Elisse are now eating lunch together.The boys are happily chatting while eating, while Elisse is trying to be lady-like infront of El
The night of the Palmridge High Reunion Party has finally arrived.Elijah and his mother decided to rent a car, and now, they are driving their way to the party venue."Are you excited to see your friends again, Mom?" Elijah smilingly asks his mother."I'm excited and a little nervous, son. I mean, I'm excited to see and talk to my high school friends again, but I'm also nervous because we have high expectations of each other, after decades of not seeing each other. You know, everyone's expecting you to be successful..." Marian relayed her opinion to her son."Don't worry, everything's going to be okay." Elijah tries to reassure his mother."Thanks, son." Marian gratefully smiles at her son.================================Meanwhile.Elisse has been craning her leg as she looks around the party venue. She's been looking for Elijah, but he's nowhere to be found.Uncle Theo and Auntie Bea, the organizers of the reunion party told her that one of their classmates is attending the party,
Theo wanted to say something more but he wasn't able to do so because they are now being called to go onstage because they are the emcee and they should start the programme..."We'll talk again later, Marian. The program is about to start. Bea and I needs to be onstage. Sit down, eat, drink, relax and enjoy, okay?" he hurriedly stated."Break a leg, Mom and Dad!" Timothy said to his parents.Theo and Bea went onstage and started hosting the event.Marian along with his son Elijah, and the rest of the kids decided to sit at the same table and enjoy the party... =============================After an hour.Everyone is having a blast at the party, and it's all thanks to Theo and Bea's great hosting skills.

Edward and Marian continued with their chat."---After I graduated from College, my wife and I immediately got married. She was already pregnant with Elliot and Elisse at that time. I had three roles to fill; being a husband, a father, and a lawyer." he narrated."And I think you've raised them well, Edward. I'm so happy to know that my son is friends with your twins, and Theo's children as well." said Marian."Just like you, Theo and I few years back." Edward nodded in return.Their conversation suddenly stops in a halt when they saw Bea coming down from the stage, and she's now walking towards their table. They can clearly see the worried look on her face..."Has anyone seen Tiara? I've noticed that she hasn't been back to the table for more than an hour now." she is getting worried for her daughter."She told me that she's going to talk to some of her friends at the party, Mom." Timothy told his mother."Can you please check on your sister again, son?" Bea requested."Alright, Mom.
"Don't you dare do anything to Elisse. Leave her alone!" Elijah seriously stated, while giving David a warning look."But what if I don't want to? And besides, I have the right to talk to Elisse. We go long way back, more than you can imagine." David relayed, while grinning from ear to ear."We didn't have any romantic relationship, you prick!" Elisse exclaimed, as irritation crosses her face."But Tiara said you liked me. You were heartbroken because you found out that I liked Tiara more and not you." David insisted."Yes, I did, but it was ages ago! It's totally different now!" Elisse shot back."But----!" David wasn't able to finish his sentence when Van suddenly spoke."Look, just let Elisse go and we won't have any problems." Elijah interjected.David can sense that Elijah is dead serious. And besides, he is much taller and larger than her, with all the muscles in their right places. He will definitely lose if he tries to fight with him.He slowly let Elisse go, and Elijah was qu
Elijah lets out a big smile after he heard words of positivity and encouragement from Elisse. Her words somehow made him feel good, and he likes this kind of feeling.He then stares at Elisse, who was busy watching the sunset. He can finally admit that he's feeling something special about this girl...Elijah stared at Elisse as if he is memorizing her whole face. Thea's face is glowing, and he was surprised to know that she got hazel brown eyes. He also find his button-like nose really charming, and she got the most amazing smile..."Hey, why did you become silent again? You're not really much of a talker, huh? Well, you don't have to worry, I'll do the talking, and all you need to do is just listen. You can stop me at anytime if you think I'm talking too much already." Elisse blabbered again."Sure. I would love to listen to every word that you say." Elijah agrees.Elisse started talking about interesting things, and Elijah is just listening, as his smile never leaving his face...==
