Then with just one reservation at a café, she met Samuel. He is mature, silent and an adult. Samuel is her first crush. Isn't it great that they both like each other? As she grows up and faces independence, learns of things she never knew, will the bad little girl Cana remain? Or does Samuel's love and care make her the good girl she has always wanted to look up to?

“Ten more minutes…” Her hand is trembling for every second that passes.“J-just a little bit more…” Sweat drops from her temples and a clear line as she crosses her brows. The atmosphere is so thick and there’s a clear tension.“Cana…”“Last five minutes…” the intense gaze makes her nervous.“W-wait!” In a blink of an eye she jumped out from her seat and raised her arms in the air.“I’m done!”“Finally Chelsea! I thought you'd be caught by the professor!” Meng exaggerates her tone teasing her friend.“Oh! No

It was one hell of a turmoil as the whole campus turned upside down to see the two sought after heirs of big company, not to mention the top freshman student and the most handsome guy in the campus. Cadmium Austen and Andrei Eldysse.“You guys, creeps me out.” Cana just shook her head and left the two who were busy bickering when they noticed she had left they followed through her.“The sophomore class is scheduled in the afternoon, why do you keep following?” Cad confronted Andrei who has neer left at Cana’s side.“I am just seeing her in class, is that a problem?” He keeps that casual smile on his face.“I am walking with her, we attend the same class, you don’t have to come!” He is now irritated that Andrei won’t leave them be, what more it is tiring Cana with their endless throw of words.“Oh please, you two mind your business I need to focus.” She then runs away from the two and leaves them speechless at how fast she was able to get away from the two of them.“You? Did you just ru

The kiss is short, their foreheads touching, both can feel the rising temperature and the flushed cheeks.“How do you learn that trick?” Samuel laughed at Cana, he never knew she would initiate first just to calm him down, still he is satisfied at how cute she is.“Just listen to me first…” Embarrassed, she buried her face to his chest and hugged him tight, Samuel smiled and from his bad mood he feels more blissful that Cana is relying more on him.It takes time, but as she foretells the whole story , he listens well, sometimes patting her head or kissing her cheek to console, with a hand holding hers, Cana was able to breathe out her worries and lift the heavy feelings that had accumulated in her chest.“If that was the case, do you want me to fetch you at school?”“Oh no, that would be a burden, I know that you are busy with your work and I don’t want to burden you.” The distance from Samuel’s workplace and her university is quite far and it’ll take an hour by car. Samuel just recen

“Cana, are you fine?” she snapped back to reality when she felt Samuel’s warm hands on her cheeks, when did he get closer she doesn’t know. They were actually eating dinner at a restaurant that he had reserved. It’s been a while since they were able to dine out and spend time together. “Samuel, well… I'm fine.” She tried to force out a smile, Samuel noticed a few scratches on her cheek and her wrists but he did not mention it to her since he wants her to confide more to him.“Then shall we walk outside? This place has a rose garden maze. It would be nice to watch the moon.” Guiding her out, as expected Samuel chooses such a romantic place and never fails to lift up her mood, as like what she has imagined the blooming roses on the walls are pretty and fragrant.“Wow! How can there be such a big maze here!?” While she is admiring the place Samuel has given a signal to one of the staff that was on standby.Looking at Cana, she has grown, her shoulder length hair when they first met is lo

Cana has forgotten the incident over the weekend, she has spent cleaning her room and of course a date with Samuel on Sundays. Her Monday morning is usually packed with major subjects, as she was about to enter she bumped into none other than Cadmium.“H-hello?” He greeted her first.“Hi?” They are both confused, and he was the first to enter the classroom, the other guys whom she thought acquaintances. She looked for a vacant seat, she saw Clarice on the other side and waved at her.“Clari--” Is it just my imagination or she avoided me?Cana just chose to be at the nearby vacant seat, she is a bit confused, usually Clarice will reserve a seat for them as the middle row. However this time, she was in the corner and way far from the usual seats. Class started and she forgot about those worries.“Then there will be the group report, I want you all to use the new platform for the presentation, it is important to have an impressive one.” The whole class complains at the hard assignment tha

The party that is supposed to be lively comes to silence as the confrontation with Cadmium and Jackies gets heated up. Those who knew their temper of the Senior Jackies are quiet and did not dare to speak of any, meanwhile knowing the only grandson and the successor of Austen Group got them tongue -tied, who would be so dumb to clash with someone who is from an influential family? “I’ll just leave no need to fuss over it.” Cana was the first to break the intense gaze between the two men.“Tsk… This woman, it was all your fault now leaving without any apology?” He still has a lot to say even though it was already clear who is the rude one and should be apologetic.“You still haven’t answered my question, Senior Jackies, I think you owe us an explanation.” His grip on Cana's wrist is tight and he is not letting go any moment so CAna cannot escape yet.“Cadmium, I know you are from an influential family but this matter is between me and that commoner girl so you should not bother and I h
