She didn't know life outside was full of hues, until she met the five beautiful persons in her senior high school life. Pwede naman palang sumaya kahit sobrang stressed na sa pag-aaral, pagod sa pag-aasikaso sa kapatid, paghuhugas ng plato, paglalaba kahit galing sa school at bago pumasok sa school, at pagtulong sa hikahos na mga magulang. Ang pinakaayaw niya lang, makakita ng taong nagsasayang ng tsansa at oportunidad sa buhay. Kawi Savral is one of those people who wastes opportunities and chances in life. Ang rason? Tinatamad.

Is she willing to accept him? No. The question is, is he willing to accept her? Achievers Series 2 by huescria

Kit Sachiel has always wanted one thing: freedom. Freedom to choose his own colors, to find peace in silence, to live quietly in the softness of his own world. He's never been one for chaos, always doing his best to stay out of trouble. But then trouble found him anyway - with a dragon tattoo sprawled across his back, a voice that rumbled like thunder, the scent of smoke that lingered like heartbreak, and a noise that ruined the calm Kit worked so hard to keep. He told himself he hated him. And maybe, for a while, he did. But hate doesn't make your heart race like that. It doesn't make the world feel less lonely. It doesn't make you wish for more. Because somewhere between the noise and the silence, Kit realized that trouble didn't destroy him. It freed him. Sweater Weather Series #1 COMPLETED
