Synopsis
Love comes unexpectedly and inexplicably. But what can the clueless Etheena Aihley Sy do when a full-blown friendship, love, and romance hit her? Etheena lives her life simply and with contentment despite being an orphan at the young age of 2. You might think, "Why?" It is all because of the memories her parents left behind, the love of her grandparents, who, despite living a simple life in the countryside, gave all that she could ask for, and her best friend Zyl, who came into her life during her lowest time. They had each other to rely on ever since they were kids. Excerpt: During a school outing, the students gathered around a bonfire for a fun game night, joining all the first-year high school students and some senior students. During the truth or dare game, someone shyly asks Etheena, “Etheena, have you ever been in love before? Do you have an ideal type?” Etheena then replied, “No, I haven’t yet.” She then thinks about it seriously and proceeds by saying, “I also do not think I had an ideal type for a man. For me, love comes naturally without looking for it, whether it is the love for family and friends, or the right ‘One.’ If it is meant for you, it is meant for you.” She then said dreamily and passionately, “When the ‘One’ arrived, I'm 100% sure about him and married him right away.” One of her classmates then asked again, “How would you know that he is the One? And how could you say so? How sure are you?” Etheena said teasingly, “I just know!” without further explanation. “What a boomer!” “I can’t believe I fell for that, Etheena, I thought you were finally being serious hahaha” “Yeah, right! How could Etheena be serious? Shouldn’t you two date first and then be engaged? hahaha” Her classmates sound pissed, but they just laugh it off eventually after hearing her answer. All of them react amusingly, but three individuals react differently from the rest: the first one felt certain, the second one felt passionate, and the third one felt heartache. Let us all follow through Etheena’s journey and see how she will navigate these full-blown emotions. [DISCLAIMER: THE COVER PIC IS NOT MY OWN. CREDIT TO THE OWNER]

Chapter 1 - The Love That Made Me

When I was 2 years old, my parents tragically had an accident on their way home from work.

My mommy, Eleena Sy, is a surgeon who excels in her field but stays humble and true to her Hippocratic oath to save lives.

On the other hand, my daddy, Aithan Sy, is a university professor teaching business management. Just like my mommy, he also excels in his field. His time was spent deepening his knowledge and expertise in his profession, but his top priority is and will always be his lovely wife and daughter. Spoiling them to the heavens and becoming a henpecked husband and a doting father to his daughter.

My parents love and cherish each other so much that even death could not separate them. This inseparable love was the love that made me — Etheena Aihley Sy.

-------------------

 Aithan Joaquin Sy, 28 years old, well-known heartthrob and academic achiever during his years as a student, successful alumni and professor at Ford University, received multiple awards but stayed private all these years, also known for his coldness to others but deep love and strong protectiveness to his family, especially his wife ‒who he could endlessly be shameless with; an action, only reserved to his wife.

After working all day at the university, Aitan immediately calls his wife as he makes his way out of the faculty office after checking students' work and leaving his teaching materials on his desk.

Aithan, "Good afternoon, my lovely wife, how's your day?" lovingly said to the other side of the call as he got into the university's parking lot and into his car.

Eleena Sy, sitting in front of her table inside her hospital office, glancing at the medical report while on the phone with her husband, replied, "I just finished a surgery." Remember what happened 30 minutes ago, Eleena proceeds to say, "and it's chaos, my love, I almost got my face kicked by a 6-year-old brat who needs to undergo knee surgery while checking his injury, thank God, your wife has great reflexes," exaggeratingly and amusingly said, sounding like someone who wants to be praised.

Aithan, the doting husband he is, naturally complied, "Yes, yes, my wife is perfect; not just the most beautiful in the world but also the nicest and sexiest body of all," said dotingly and shamelessly. "But that brat needs beating, how dare he almost hit my wife!?" he said angrily.

Eleena "Shameless, when did I talk about being the sexiest?!" embarrassingly said. Still not immune to her husband's shamelessness. "Besides, it is a natural response of that kid since his in pain, so you don't need to overreact," patiently calming her overprotective husband.

Eleena "But I must say, no one could compare to our little angel at home, she's the best! Owwh, I miss her so much," squealing, remembering their 2-year-old daughter.

 

Aithan, sharing the same sentiment with his wife, "Our little princess is the best!" smiling gently, remembering their lovely daughter.

"I'm almost done with my work. How about coming to fetch me, my love?" Eleena asks as she tries to finish her remaining paperwork in front of her immediately.

Aithan "You don't need to ask, my love, I'll naturally fetch you from work because that's one of my duties as your beloved husband. I'm already on my way to your hospital. Do you have anything you wanted to eat?" glancing outside the car, "I'm near your favorite bakery," said dotingly to his wife, knowingly trying to impress his wife who had a sweet tooth.

Eleena "Ahhh, I love you very much, my hubby," squealing and excitedly confessing her love. "Please, buy me 1 piece of their shuffle cake with strawberry icing on top, 1 chocolate smoothie, and garlic bread, please add lots of cheese," said excitedly, almost drooling just saying it.

Aithan, "Noted, my love, wait for me. I'll be there in 30 minutes. I love you, my love!" dotingly said.

Eleena "I love you too, my love! Drive safely!" reciprocating her husband.
