✔ | Sun Rays Series #2 Words are powerful, even the ones you never say out loud. Redler, an ABM student, has always been better at writing things down than actually saying them. She's not trying to be invisible; it just kind of... happened. Being quiet is safer and less complicated, and she doesn't even mind staying in the background. Then there's Davin from the HUMSS, her complete opposite. The charming guy everyone knows who's carrying air that draws people in. An artist who believes that art has always had a place in this world, and somehow, he speaks about literature like it belongs just as much. He doesn't try to change her. He just stays and sees her in ways no one else ever bothered to. And for some reason, that's more terrifying than being ignored. Now Redler's caught between the comfort of being unseen and the risk of being known by someone who actually pays attention. Because what happens when the girl who hides behind her words meets the boy who believes those words deserve a place in the world? And what if, for once, she wants to be seen... instead of just writing herself away? Disclaimer: story is written in taglish. Date Started: 03/13/24 Date Ended: 07/16/24

WCS 1: Threads of Oxytocin Minsan, may mga bagay na hindi mo kayang ipaliwanag. May mga pagkakataon na kahit anong pilit mong kontrolin, hindi mo pa rin matitimbang ang mga nangyayari. May mga koneksyon sa buhay natin na hindi mo alam kung paano nagsimula. Pero isang araw, mapapansin mo na lang na tila nakatakda talaga ang lahat. Para bang ang bawat hibla ng sinulid ng tadhana ay humuhubog ng isang kwento. Isang kwento ng pag-ibig, sakit, at pagkakaibigan. Just like oxytocin, the hormone responsible for love, bonding, and trust. There are connections you can't explain, bonds that tie you to someone when you least expect it. It's the invisible thread that pulls you closer, even when you're fighting against it. In the bustling halls of Eastbridge School of Medicine, two paths would cross. And, in the midst of sleepless nights, high stakes, and endless pressure, would they discover the power of friendship, teamwork, and maybe... even love? With every connection comes a challenge, and their threads would be tested in ways neither of them had imagined. As their lives intertwine, one question remains: Would their threads still hold together?
