✔ | Sun Rays Series #1 Ritienzy, a social butterfly from HUMSS, wears her carefree smile like armor. Palakaibigan siya, oo, pero hanggang do'n lang. Ever since she witnessed her parents' love collapse, she learned to keep her heart at arm's length. Maybe bata pa siya at marami pang kailangang matutuhan, but the wounds beneath her laughter aren't as healed as she pretends. Then there's Jayscen from STEM, a smart, academically-driven guy who chases dreams bigger than the limits around him because of his expectations to himself. And behind his quiet composure hides a temper he once couldn't control. Fate crosses their paths twice, accidental yet strangely inevitable. . . at sa gitna pa talaga ng kalsada. Two teens. Two masks. Two hearts carrying battles the world doesn't see. Naging magkaibigan sila, pero hanggang kaibigan na lang ba talaga? And how will she, who's afraid to love, and him, who's afraid to fail, ever realize that their meeting is more than an accident, but the beginning of a path they must walk together--one that might just lead them past their limits, and into something infinite?

✔ | 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

✔ | Sun Rays Series #3 A life you never chose, yet one you're forced to survive. Rhyolite of HUMSS, the class president, the eldest, the one who learned early how to carry a home that was never meant to rest on her shoulders. She raises her siblings without question, even when she herself is running on empty. Hindi niya hinahanap ang presensya ng ina na matagal nang kulang, mas abala siyang punan ang kakulangan ng perang kailangan para mabuhay. Then there's AJ, the HUMSS' class clown. The boy everyone gravitates toward. Athletic, loud, and irritating... at least, to Rhyolite. Or maybe that's just how she chooses to see him. In a world that keeps shifting beneath their feet, they learn to sway just to stay standing... parang buhangin na hindi mo mahawakan nang buo, pero kailangan mong kapitan para hindi ka tuluyang lumubog. But how long can you keep choosing to stay afloat, when the very hands that were supposed to catch you are the ones letting you fall? Because the hardest truth to face is even when you gave everything you had, it isn't still enough. And for two of them who's barely surviving in a life without privilege, the question remains... hanggang saan aabot ang "kaya pa"?

Interstice Trilogy #1 There are things that never work the same once they are separated from their other half. Anna Wisteria spent years trying to become someone people couldn't easily dismiss. She learned how to be smart, composed, and dependable. Para sa kan'ya, mahirap magpakita ng kahinaan dahil buong buhay niya ay sinanay siyang patunayan na kaya niya. But somehow, those rules have never applied to Wendell Eliezer, her childhood best friend, the constant source of her frustration, and the only person who always finds a way past her defenses. Simple lang naman dapat, magkaibigan sila simula pagkabata. Yet, college has a funny way of changing things. New people arrive. New feelings get in the way. And for the first time, Wisteria finds herself questioning a relationship she never thought she had to define. After all, paano mo malalaman kung saan nagtatapos ang pagkakaibigan kung matagal nang naging bahagi ng buhay mo ang isang tao? Because no matter how much they try to move forward, there always seems to be an asterisk between them, and perhaps, something waiting to be rewritten.
