[IF I FALL SEQUEL] Hindi lahat ng sequel, maganda.

Collection of ficlets/one shots for my stories (TDG, IIF, TMEUAS and TSIB).

The thing with Valentine's Day is, either you hate it or you love it. And Zade Pascual definitely belongs to the first category. Para sa kanya, isang araw lang ito ng commercialized version ng pag-ibig. Walang kakilig-kilig at napakalayo sa true love stories na nababasa niya sa mga libro. Nasubok ang kanyang anti-Valentine's sentiment when she unexpectedly meets Andreau Cortez-an award-winning actor and film student at her university-in the cafe where she works-- on Valentine's Day of all days. Andreau, their new cafe regular, surprises Zade by asking for her help with his latest short film project, which she hesitantly agrees to. Despite a rocky start, Zade discovers the real Andreau Cortez beyond the camera and celebrity gossip. Over the fika-not date hangouts and late-night conversations, their effortless friendship blurs into something more, to the point na akala ng lahat (yes, friends and family included) na sila na ni Andreau. Caught off guard by her evolving feelings, Zade must confront her own heart. Hanggang best friend nga lang ba ang tingin niya kay Andreau? Can their story unfold like the happy endings she loves in books? Well, sometimes, the best love stories take time to tell.

Sabi nila, pag nag bilang ka raw ng siyam na bituin sa loob ng siyam na araw at sinabi mo ang hiling mo, magkakatotoo raw ito. Ang hirap maniwala sa mga pamahiin na 'yan, pero wala naman masama kung susubukan 'di ba? Malay natin magkatotoo ang hiling ko na sana....magustuhan mo rin ako.

I was 16 back then when I married you. You were 18. Kahit bata ka pa lang, successful ka na agad. Ikaw na agad ang nagpapatakbo ng kompanya niyo. Samantalang ako, sakit sa ulo ng mga magulang ko. Kaya nga siguro ako ipinakasal sayo para magtino ako. Pero kahit isang taon na tayong dalawa na nagsasama, we are still strangers. Walang kibuan, walang pakialamanan. Minsan nga wala pang imikan. Pero that's fine with me kasi hindi naman kita mahal At alam kong hindi mo rin ako mahal Pareho lang tayong naipit sa sitwasyong ito na hindi natin kayang takasan. Pero sana lang dumating ang panahon na kahit papaano masasabi kong YOU ARE MY HOME

For Ara Angeles, the plan is to live the simple, ordinary life she's been living in Batangas-to study hard and work harder to help her family. And Aivan Vinn Montemayor, the grandson of her boss, was not part of the plan, and falling in love with him...well, plans can change. Hearts don't. *** Ara Angeles and her family have been working at the Rancho De Monteyamor ever since she can remember, living a simple, ordinary life tending to horses and cows and sleeping on hay. She never imagined to be noticed by one of Don Gabriel's grandchildren, but she's certainly not complaining--not when Aivan is giving her the romantic fairytale she's always dreamt of having. The catch? He's already engaged to someone else. Will Ara get her happily ever after, or will Aivan remain an unreachable prince charming? DISCLAIMER: This story is written in Taglish.
