I refuse to look at the world positively. For me, walang kwenta ang mundo. It's meaningless and full of agony. It's dark and colorless. I don't see the point in living a life that's full of hatred and pain. I hated the world, not until I met him. When I met him, my monochromatic life started to have colors. Yellow for happiness, gray for sadness, and red for hatred and pain. I started to feel something and he was the only one who made me feel that way. With him by my side, my world became lively. He became my yellow, and he made my world meaningful. - I don't have all the good things in life. I don't think I ever have. I was always alone with my own thoughts. I refused to see the good things in life, not until I met her. Her eyes lit up the entire place the moment I saw her. My lifeless life started blooming because of her. I knew from then I have found the reason to see the good things life can offer me. I started to hope for the better. While staring at her glistening eyes, I hoped I could be better for her. She became the reason for my joy and changed how I perceived the world. . GENRE: Romance, Adventure, Young Adult.

Hearts are breaking. Promises undone. A heart turned cold. The day he became ruthless.
