Medyo tanggap ko nang hanggang third wheel lang talaga ako. Kahit tenth wheel nga siguro tanggap ko na rin. * * * Walang hiyang med school. Hindi ako makalandi. (insert mga mura) * * * Dalawang taong hindi malaman kung kailan ba nila mapapalitan 'yung relationship status nila sa Facebook; from Single to In a Relationship, ay biglang nagkita sa isang bar. Iyong isa, nahigit lang ng mga kaibigan kaya pumayag na rin kasi masarap naman daw 'yung pulutan. Iyong isa naman, planong humanap ng kalandian kasi, finally, nakalaya sa medical books niya. Nakahanap nga siya ng kalandian. Sino pa ba? E di 'yung nahigit lang ng mga kaibigan kaya pumayag na rin kasi masarap naman daw 'yung pulutan. At dahil pareho silang maloko, nauwi sila sa sarili rin nilang kalokohon. Iyon ay ang gawing jowa ang isa't isa. Paano ba naman, 'yung isa, lagi na lang third wheel. Kahit fling wala talaga. Never been kiss, never been touch. Iyong isa naman, sa sobrang busy sa medical school ay nakalimutan niya na kung ano'ng feeling ng kilig. Gusto niya pa rin maranasan. Gusto nilang maranasan. Kaya napagkasunduan nilang ibibigay nila 'yon sa isa't isa; gagawin ang mga bagay na ginagawa ng mag-jowa. Pero siyempre, lahat ng 'yon, sikreto lang.

Liking a person wasn't supposed to feel so encapsulating, but Una Madia Grajales freezes up whenever he's near. The knots and butterflies in her stomach makes her buckle and shut down and all she could do was gush about him to her best friend who was nothing but supportive. He cheered her on, gave her some pointers, he even made some adjustments just for her to spend some time with her crush. But down the line, Una realized she never cared for the butterflies. She didn't like freezing up neither the churning in her stomach. She wanted clear skies, warm blankets, fuzzy socks, and wistfully, the one who gave her a turtle plushie in the middle of the night-just because. And perhaps, she was too late to recognize that what she needed has always been there all along when he's already a thousand miles away. The chances were probably thin, but maybe it was exactly what they needed to begin again. Begin Again (Love in Paris # 4) Completed (2021).

Machidiel Hanvi already has a peaceful life. Growing up, he kept his space toxic-free and sacred, almost too good to be true. He lives by his faith in God and continues to practice what it means to be a good example, therefore he never engaged in making choices that were derived from sin. Until he met Gethen Aslarona who had a life different than his. The noise in her world was all over the place and she herself was carved out of chaos: wild and anarchic. There were ugly parts of her life that Machidiel would avoid, however, he didn't run away and accepted her as a whole. Even in the good or bad, Machidiel keeps coming back for Gethen, and that's when he realizes why people have addictions. In his case, it's a person.
