AEGGIS Series #2 - Athan Falcon AEGGIS' Lead Guitarist First sight. First smile. First song. First kiss. First night. All of your firsts come only once in your life. Ireserba mo ito para sa taong karapat dapat sa kaunaunahan mo. Matuto kang maghintay, kahit gaano pa iyon katagal. You should endure, because endurance is the name of the game when you fall inlove. Unang kita pa lang ni Leria kay Athan, napagtanto na niya na ang lahat ng una niya ay ibibigay niya sa binata. He was her first love. Iyong lalaking nakakapagpawelga sa mga paruparo sa kanyang bituka. Iyong lalaking laging laman ng iyong panaginip. Iyong lalaking iniisip mong magiging kapareha mo habang buhay.Pero hanggang kailan mo kayang maghintay sa isang bagay na hindi naman sigurado? Hanggang kailan ka aasa kung alam mo namang wala kang aasahan? Up to what extent will you fool yourself on believing on fairytales? The world is not a manufacturer of dreams. Hindi lahat ng pangarap mo ay natutupad. May mga taong gusto lang makuha ang una mo, pero hindi nila aangkinin ang panghuli mo. May mga taong iiwanan ka lamang kapag dumating na ang orihinal. May mga taong itatapon ka na kapag hindi ka na kailangan. You are useless. You have surrendered your first. Karapat dapat nga bang ipaglaban ang una kung sa simula pa lang, talo ka na? Will you face a losing battle? Will you let the man who conquered your first take your last?

All her life, Mary Imogen Suarez was led to believe that she should end up with Parker Adrian Palma. Na dapat, kay Parker lang siya. Na si Imogen ay para lang kay Parker. But the problem was, Parker never looked her way, at least, not the way she wanted him to. For him, she's just the best friend-and a reminder of something he badly wanted to forget. For years, she lived with the knowledge that Parker would never like her back. Akala ni Imo, hindi na siya makakaahon sa naraaramdaman niya para kay Parker-until she met Saint Iverson Gomez de Lianño. Saint was a breath of fresh air. He's attentive, and he made Imo feel loved and appreciated-something she never felt during all the years she loved Parker. But when things started to fall in their right places, Parker decided to finally look her way. What would Imogen do? Would she brave the storm to be with Saint? Or would she tread the strings that connect her with Parker?
