This was how Vincent made it through his kindergarten years, eventually growing up to become the handsome, popular guy in high school.
Back then, I thought of Vincent as my sworn brother. He used to pester me daily to help him with math, insisting that we should go to the same university.
Eventually, I did as he wished and ended up at the same college as him.
He became the campus heartthrob at Arora University and turned into my biggest obstacle in love.
No matter how attractive or outgoing I was, and despite having countless friends, no guy ever approached me, let alone confessed his feelings.
On graduation day, Vincent took me to the university's science museum.
He had his friends in the student council turn off all the lights in the building, leaving only a breathtaking view of the universe illuminated just for us.
He held my hand, and I could feel his palms sweating.
"Mia, will you marry me? I swear on my life that I'll always treat you well."
At that moment, I didn't hesitate.
But now, facing Vincent, I refuse without a second thought.
"Mr. Dent, that's my business, so you don't need to worry about it. I'll handle it."
