(Game Series # 1) For as long as Katherine could remember, Juan Alexandro Yuchengco has always been her dream guy. He's smart, kind, and could be funny when he wanted to... but the problem was, he never saw her as more than his sister's friend. And she's determined to change that. She followed him to law school. She made sure that he's aware of her presence... and thankfully, her efforts paid off. Finally, Jax was looking her way. But life is never simple. Life is a game. It's either you win or you lose. It's either you get it all or you lose it all. Kapag akala mong nandyan na, biglang mawawala pala. Kapag akala mong iyon na, may iba pa pala. But how will she play if all the cards are stacked against her?

This is my first poetry collection. Most of these were written way back in college. I hope you like it guys.

Sophie hated drama. Ayaw niyang magtiwala at mag-open up sa ibang tao. Inis na inis rin siya sa mga kakornihan ng mga tao ngayon. At hindi na rin siya naniniwala sa destiny. Or with anything that might make her vulnerable again. She was living on her own, little world, until one guy named Christopher came. He was her complete opposite; hopeless romantic, believer of the power of destiny, and very optimistic. Kaya siguro hindi na nakakapagtakang iniwasan siya agad ni Sophie the very first time they met (albeit accidentally.) But that's just it. Parang kakampi pa ni Christopher ang tadhana. Kahit anong iwas niya, nagtatagpo sila sa iba't-ibang lugar. Sa iba't-ibang pagkakataon. At paano nga kung magtatagpo sila ng labintatlong beses accidentally gaya ng sabi ni Christopher? Will she finally let him in? Will she finally believe in destiny? Or in love?

Magkababata. Parehong mula sa isang heartbreak. At palaging nagtatagpo kapag umuulan. Si Florence, na masayahin ngunit may tinatagong heartaches mula sa nakaraan. At si Geoff, na may sariling mundo ngunit may matagal nang inaasam. Will they find love in the pouring rain?

Nawala ang ala-ala ni Janus nung maaksidente siya bago pa man siya maka-graduate ng high school. At sa pagtuntong niya ng college, gusto niyang makilala ulit ang mga kaibigan niya noong high school pa siya. Ngunit sa paghahanap niya sa kanyang mga kaibigan, makikilala niya ang isang babae na magpapabago sa takbo ng buhay niya. Siya si Cassidy; nerdy, geeky, at palaging tinutukso ng dating barkada ni Janus. Dahil sa isang gulay na wala sa bahay-kubo, mga gabing puno ng amoy ng kape, at isang kantang hindi maalala, magiging magkaibigan ang dalawa, at malalaman ni Janus na may sekreto sa pagitan ni Cassidy at ng dati niyang mga kabarkada. Si Cassidy na kaya ang makapagpapabalik sa mga nawawala niyang ala-ala?

Star-crossed lovers. Yun sina Franceli at Luthan. Franceli was that nobody obssesed with the school heartthrob, and Luthan was a rebel star, as in a literal shooting star yearning to become human. When fate brings them together, magtutulungan sila na makuha ang kanilang mga pangarap. Even if it means sacrificing their feelings for each other.

Endings are beginnings of beautiful things. #1 on the end-live-begin trilogy.
