Malaiah, the woman of hope. She was too young when her father walked away, and too unprepared when her mother was taken from her. Somewhere between those two losses, she became someone who learned to live without being held, carrying a life she never chose, and memories that were never given the chance to exist. Sa murang edad, natuto siyang tumayo sa sarili niyang mga paa, pilit binubuo ang isang buhay na kahit kailan ay hindi naging madali. Aiah learned early how to disappear in plain sight. It became instinct, whenever she felt her presence grew too heavy, too complicated, too much to carry, she would quietly step back. Distance became her language of self-preservation, a way to keep others safe from the emotional chaos she had long learned to endure alone. But Tibo Alexandre didn't respond the way she expected people to. He didn't flinch at her silence, nor did he take her withdrawal as a final answer. Will Aiah stay where silence keeps her safe, or will Tibo become the sound that lingers long enough to break what she never thought could be heard again?

Wounds heal, but scars remain. So even with the possibility that one can accept and move forward, it's impossible to forget. Because there will always be an irremovable mark that will remind you of every bit of pain. Growing up without a mother was Zarih's first heartache. It scarred her more than anything else. She sees how her dad grieves for her mom all the time-even after years-and it breaks her. When Zarih learned about the possibility that she might have inherited her mother's heart disease, she knew she couldn't afford to love because she wouldn't want anyone to suffer at her death. She wouldn't want to love someone just to wound him at the end. It was easy not to fall in love, only if Ace Timotheo Salvador, her summer enemy, didn't dare touch her scars... as if they were the most beautiful parts of her existence. Zarih feels like losing it... She wants to love and be loved. Maybe he can heal her scars. Maybe their story is different from her dad's. Maybe they can have a happy ending. Or maybe... She should've not risked it at all. Maybe she could've not scarred her heart more. Finished: July 21, 2022
