"How much painful could it be to be just friends?"
***
For Talullah Euphrasia "Eullah" Balaguer, love could have been so easy if it were not for her best friend. No matter how she hardly denies her feelings to herself, the more that it goes out of hand. All this time, she thought she would be just fine playing the "Tinkerbell-like" role in Tim's life, helping and supporting him in everything to find his very own true love.
But fate has a twisted sense of humor because she realizes that being "Wendy" is what she wanted all along. But does Ultimus Mercavah Fabroa, a.k.a. "Peter Pan," her best friend, would be able to see it, or would she end up like "Tinkerbell," who will never be chosen?
How she wished that he would look at her the same way as she does.
If only he knew, would it change everything?

SYNOPSIS
Eullah likes Tim more than just a friend.
Tim, on the contrary, likes Eullah as his best friend, and there's nothing more to that.
But the world seemed to notice behind the facade.
She likes him, but he failed to feel it.
He likes her, but she failed to see it.
It's evident to everyone, except to themselves.
And it wasn't that simple.

THE BEGINNING
(A Prologue)
To my favorite "what if,"
I would be direct.
Me, your most trusted best friend, hid two things from you. Maybe because I don't want to risk it — the friendship that we had built — for such a reason that I couldn't lose you, or maybe... I was just a coward, afraid to show what I really feel for you because I know you're not feeling the same way as I do.
You know how much important our friendship is to me, and I know that you do too.
Before further reading this, I want you to know that I never regret being your friend, your very best friend. Who wouldn't want someone like you, right? I'm fortunate because you're the best thing that ever happened to me, and I'm sure that most people would agree. I couldn't be any prouder of having such a man in my entire existence. You're so dear to me, but lately, being with you became so hard for me. There came the point in my life that I started to pity myself just by being your friend. I wanted to change my place in your life, and that's when I realized that I don't want to be your friend anymore. Because I didn't know just being your friend could be this painful.
I'm quitting now...
So, please... forgive me. Yes, you read it right, Tim. I don't want to be your best friend anymore...
