EP 1; Placing the coffee mug on the glass table, "you know what darling, girls like you who always try to run away from dating and relationships, always end up falling in love at the end." 

Letting out a brittle laughter, "grandma I think you're under the influence of fairy tales. Or did you watch Cinderella cartoons before coming?" 

"Huh? I can't even remember the last time I watched fairy tales movie." 

"Then why are you talking bout dating and relationships? Because I know am not interested in them" 

Raising her eyebrows, granny Mathilda burst into laughter.

Scowling her face, "grandma what's funny? I didn't say something funny" 

Slightly pinching and pulling bianca's cheeks, granny Mathilda chuckled, "yes dear, you just said something funny." 

Frowning confusedly, "how?" 

Taking a deep breath, "first of all, let me tell you something." She sat up properly and faced her. "Do you know that old men and women of my age  still goes into relationship?" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, Bianca threw her hands in her mouth and gasped. "Ahh, you gat to be kidding me grandma" 

Nodding her head, "no darling, am not kidding, am talking legit." 

"But why do they have to go into a relationship when they're old and weak?" Shrugging her shoulders, "weird" 

Flicking her forehead, "oh you haven't heard of old people dating sites?" 

Frowning confusedly, "old people dating sites? No I haven't and why is it?" 

Chuckling, "okay I'll tell you" she whispered and explained. "Every woman needs a life partner, whom will watch over her, protect her and support her till the end of time. So no matter your age or who you are, you still need a partner." 

Sitting up properly, Bianca helplessly shook her head. "But it's not in my gene to date anyone right now, because–" placing her hand on her chest, she gave a doleful look and added, "I don't wanna suffer another heartbreak, please feel my pains" 

Patting the top of her head, she chuckled. "I do feel your pains too dear but heartbreaks are also part of life" 

Widening her eyes and mouth in shock, "huh?" Bianca shouted shockingly.

"Uh huh, if you didn't date someone then how do you experience heartbreaks? Or do you just watch them happen in the movies?"

BREATHLESS [A story that will touch your soul]

With the widest bug-eye and slack-jawed mouth, "whoa, did–" 


"I just lost my appetite" Bianca dashed out of the dinning room leaving Isabella alone. 


Shrugging her shoulders and looking at her plate of food. "More breakfast for me. Am gonna eat until am filled.  


"You're unbelievable, dude. Why didn't you call me to tell me about this syndrome?" Ryan lashed out on Justin whom was admitted for a bed rest. 


"Ryan why are you shouting? Can't you keep it down? My head is gonna explode if you keep on yelling at me." Justin groan fustratedly. 


"Justin, but how did it turn out to be this way? I mean you've–" 


Cutting Nelly off, Elsa said, "there's nothing wrong with my son." Placing her hand on his forehead, she sighed. "Justin is suffering from a typical syndrome called 'LIMERENCE' 


Scrunching their brows, "limerence?" Ryan, Thomas and Billy shouted in unison. 


"Yes, it is a scientific phenomenon and chemically influenced state, primarily fueled by the chemical dopamine, that is released by neurons in the human brain and plays a major role in the motivational component of reward motivated behavior." Elsa explained. 


"Aunt, does this means that Justin is officially having a mental health disorder or he has completely gone psycho?" Billy inquired confusedly. 


Letting out a chuckle, "no he is not mentally unstable." She sighed, "what I meant is this–" looking at Justin whom was busy looking back at her. "He is crazily crushing on someone."  


Widening their eyes and grinning from ear to ear, Ryan, Nelly, Thomas and Billy looked at Justin whom was giving them a weird look. 


"Dude, you're crushing on someone, so who's that person?" Thomas grinned. 


Sitting on the chair beside the bed, "who's she? You can talk to me about it." Elsa said. 


Massaging his forehead, "oh God, how do I explain this?" Justin groan fustratedly. 


"It's easy, just like the alphabetical letters, so come on, spill the beans." Nelly beamed. 


"Justin it's better you talk things out, because the dopamine and serotonin chemicals are still active and working in your system right now, and they can make you go wild if you decide to keep it to yourself and suffer alone." Elsa stated. 


"Mom you don't understand, it's not easy to explain. Infact I don't know how to put it because it's complicated and crazy." Justin sighed tiredly. 


Placing her hand on his shoulder, "you don't have to worry bout how you're gonna say it. I will understand you in any way you chose to put it, okay? So speak out." Elsa assured.
