YOUNG LOVE SERIES #1 When is the right time to express love? Jedidiah Albano believes she already knows the answer. For her, love doesn't exist at their age. Teenagers don't really fall in love, not truly-not the kind that lasts. To her, romantic love between a boy and a girl at this stage is nothing more than borrowed words and fleeting sympathy disguised as "I love you." Drazen Kiel Villegas shares the same belief. Love? It's just another weakness. His own mother told him so, and she was never even in love with his father. So he drifts through his days, toying with hearts, never looking back. But everything changes when Drazen and Jedidiah start gravitating toward each other-drawn by something neither of them wants to admit. Just when closeness starts to feel like something more, Jedidiah pulls away, afraid to be just another girl he'll eventually leave behind. She convinces herself it's not real. That he never cared. And maybe it's too late now to tell him what she really feels. August 21 2022- June 30, 2023 [Editing]
