From strangers to friends. From friends to close friends. From close friends to lovers. When Joey met Psalm, she didn't think that they'd ever be together. Paano ba naman, ex niya ang best friend nito! Psalm had seen her at her lowest, and she didn't think that there's a possibility of them being together... Pero habang tumatagal, mas lalong napapalapit ang loob niya dito. But how could they be together if he couldn't trust her? Trust... parang isang maliit na bagay lang, pero kapag wala sa isang relasyon, hindi mo alam kung hanggang kailan magtatagal.

My short stories.

"Do you want to be his favorite obsession?" DAHIL sa isang trahedya, ikinubli ni Virgo ang kagandahang taglay. Itinago niya iyon sa pamamagitan ng pagsusuot ng mga pang-manang na damit. Ayaw niyang maulit ang trahedya na kumitil sa buhay ng mga magulang niya. Halos magta-tatlong taon na rin siyang ganoon, hanggang sa maubos ang pera na iniwan ng mga magulang sa kanya at kinailangan niyang magtrabaho. Hindi naman siya nahirapan humanap ng trabaho dahil tinulungan siya ng kaniyang tiyo na makapasok sa Kallean Financial Firm, kung saan ang tiyo niya ang CEO. Things were normal. Kahit papaano, masaya siya sa trabaho niya. Until one day, her uncle just disappeared into thin air and he was replaced by Lucien Kallean, the owner of Kallean Financial Firm. At dahil sa sekretarya siya ng kaniyang tiyo, nangangamba siyang baka matanggal siya sa trabaho dahil wala na roon ang tiyuhin niya. Ngunit laking gulat niya ng hindi siya nito sinisante. The insolent man even kissed her and offered her to be his lover! What the hell was happening? Why on earth would a handsome man like Lucien Kallean would kiss an old maid looking woman like her? And really, his lover? Was the world coming to an end? Hindi ba nito nakikita na mukha siyang manang? CECELIB | C.C. MATURE CONTENT COMPLETED COVER: ASTRID JAYDEE

Ang pag-ibig ay parang nagsusugal. Pag sigurado kang mahal mo ang tao, ibibigay mo ang lahat. Ang problema dito ay di mo alam kung may maibabalik paba sayo o wala. Maswerte ang nakakakuha ng higit pa sa inaasahan, pero luhaan ang mga sumugal at natalo. Pero ganun paman, tulad ng sugal, kahit walang kasiguraduhan, marami paring umiibig, marami paring sumusugal. Dahil... Baka Sakali... Baka Sakali...
