A/N: Hello! This is Angelo! Jenika's older cousin~! Today, she's somewhere with her mom and dad and their friends. So i decided to write this spin-off chapter. I'm gonna tell a part of Jenika's 'tragic' story that i only know. No one else knows this except me, not even her friends. I'm gonna tell Jenika's story with Wayne's POV. Imagine Wayne talking about Serina's life in here. Enjoy~

Wayne's POV

Hmmm... I remember something about Serina. Her dream of being an actress, i guess? Yeah, an actress. She hid it from her parents, she lied about wanting to be a scientist. I noticed that when she lied, her mom and dad seemed to not notice it. They were happy. They wanted her to be a scientist. Serina really hates things like those. But when she revealed the truth later on, her parents were disappointed. Not because she lied, it's because her parents that dream is too much for her. Her parentd thinks she can't reach it.

I supported her with her grandparents. The rest of her family didn't really supported her. It was just me, her grandparents, and her a few of her friends. There was a time Serina's father bad-mouthed her mom. She was angry. She yelled out a bad word once her father walked out of the house. I was also in that house. She said, "Motherfucker. You can't just say something like that to my mother." she was in the verge of tears. Having your family not supporting you is really tough. I wanted to be a police/detective. Serina joked about me not reaching it but still, she supported me.

I feel bad about her. I want to just hug her and say everything's alright. Even if she can't reach that dream, she can always be something else. And so, Serina ended up dropping that dream. Now she wants to be a volleyball player or a photographer. Her parents agreed. But still... I think they still not support her... Why? Is it that hard? Sure Serina may be not that smart, clumsy, slow, and useless but it doesn't mean she can't reach it. At least she was chasing her dream instead of other girls who was chasing their boyfriends back. A family should be supportive and proud... Serina's family is really fucked up.

I always see the sadness in her eyes. I feel like she wants to cry. I wanted to leave her alone, but i can't. I know she had to have a quality time with herself... But i also know she needs comfort. Seeing her look up to her idols really hurts. I mean, she can't just look up to them forever. If you want to be like them, then so be it. I want her to know that i'm always here for her. I want her to know she can do this.

Some even said she has no talent. She's useless. She's worthless, like her old father who left her mom alone. I know she can do everything if she focuses in it. She can be an actress, a volleyball player, a photographer, or anything she wants to be. Serina was so sad that she cries everytime she's alone at her house. Serina can act well, she can sing well, and even dance well. But without determination and support, those talents are nothing. What kind of family are they if they don't support their own relative?
