Epilogue: Love, Unplanned (But Kinda Perfect)

Feli spent the next day avoiding all eye contact, even with doorknobs. Her soul had practically left her body from embarrassment.

Until she opened her locker—and found a note.

“Thanks for the chocolates. Sobrang sarap.
You ran faster than I thought, though.
But if ever gusto mong i-walk lang next time...
maybe we can do it together?”
– Syrius :)”

She froze.

Then squealed.

Then reread it seventeen times.

She turned around—and there he was.

Holding two choco milks.

“For energy,” he said, smiling. “In case tumakbo ka ulit.”

She laughed, heart pounding.

This time, she didn’t run.

She walked beside him, holding her choco milk, smiling like a kid on Christmas morning.

Maybe fate really did bump into her.

Literally.
