Weddings. Vanya Nadine Joson dreaded weddings. Within her circle of friends, she was the only one remaining single and unmarried. Single, for as long as she could remember. She was slowly accepting the fact that she'll grow old alone, and she was already preparing for it. Her retirement plan was laid out, she already picked her senior home, she even began to draw out her last will on her mind. Until zooming out for the possibilities for the next forty years began to overwhelm her. Living alone wasn't so bad after all. But there was a time where she hoped for her wishful thinkings to come true. A time where she pictured an entire future with someone. Every night, in all of her prayers, he was there. In her mind, in her dreams, in her wishes. In the quiet. He was her secret she kept hidden in the dark. There wasn't a second passing by where she didn't regret how everything fell apart. They almost had it. If she could stop the clock and trace back every second, she would. Because the moment he left, everything came to a pause. The stillness made her numb as the years went by. Vanya remained unmoving. Stuck. And always wishing. Stuck on Pause (For the Record # 2) Completed (2023).

Overwhelmed by academic pressure, Vina Nathalie Joson decided to drop everything that could be a source of distraction, even her three-year relationship. Filled with doubts and seemingly spiraling into the deep end, Vina was losing grip. Losing herself. That breathing alone was hard. And the only person that has been keeping her steady and hopeful was gone. But she couldn't allow herself to drag him with her into the deep end. It was cruel. She had to let him go even if it means she needed to hold her breath. Yet, there he was. Still staying by her side. With a love that's steady and unwavering. Silently wishing for everything to go back the way it used to be. Or maybe, that was just him being hopeful. And all he was holding on to was an idea and moments in time that are too precious to let go. If We Could Press Rewind (For the Record # 1) Completed (2022).

It was a complete three-sixty. From the girl casually winding up at the bar who suddenly turned into someone's pretend girlfriend, Nastia Kahlila Quijano never saw it coming. She wasn't supposed to give into someone who were clear and upfront with their boundaries. There was no other choice but to treat him as an off-limit, like a whiskey bottle hanging at the top shelf-seemingly invisible to her eyes. After all, Nika was only returning a favor. Pretend relationships were bound to end anyway. But the thin line between their make-believe and their reality were beginning to blur. They couldn't draw out what's real and what's made up anymore. Then the boundaries began to solidify and the haze was gone. The line became clearer than before, reminding Nika why it existed in the first place. Maybe it was too soon. Maybe, they should leave it at that. After all, how could she lose something she never even had? This is an epistolary story written in taglish. Completed (2022).

She was laser-focused with the top priority on her list. Adrianna Venaventura only wanted to pass the bar. But how could a night out suddenly change her course? It wasn't in her plans to meet anyone, wasn't in her plans to entertain, and most definitely, it wasn't in her plans to engage to a certain relationship-for whatever they call it. Something must have transpired for them to finally meet, someone must have trampled and messed with the strings and she knew it wasn't supposed to turn out the way it did. But Andy wasn't above resisting the call. She doesn't know why, which, or who, but somehow, that Wednesday night, something outside her list must have turned up again beyond her control, keeping her off track. It was a free fall when the strings were suddenly becoming undone. And if there's one thing she's good at, it's working hard beyond any circumstance to pursue what she wants head on, straight on.
