Hindi si Eunice ang klase ng babaeng naniniwala sa forever kahit pa taken siya. At kahit pa apat na taon na siyang may boyfriend, sobrang bitter pa rin niya pagdating sa usapang love life. Nang magtagpo ang landas nila ng idol niyang romance novelist na si Gregory Troye, hindi niya inaasahang matatawid ang mga limitasyong ibinigay niya sa sarili para lang sa inaakala niyang tunay na pagmamahal. Sa sandaling halos ipamukha na sa kanya ng tadhana na mali siya ng mga naging desisyon sa buhay, mapaninindigan pa kaya niya ang paniniwalang walang happy ending kung ang inaakala niyang ending ay magdudulot sa kanya ng tunay na kahulugan ng salitang "happy?" Para matapos ang kuwentong hindi naman tungkol sa dalawang taong nagmamahalan, pero tungkol sa love; ano nga ba ang kailangan niyang gawin para matapos ang kanyang pinapangarap na collab? At sa di-inaasahang pagsasama ng dalawang taong hindi naman ganoong nagtagal, mahahanap niya sa di-inaasahang pagkakataon ang perpektong kasagutan sa tanong na "Naranasan mo na bang magmahal?"

PUBLISHED UNDER LIB Note: If you're not into flawed characters who make wrong decisions, don't read this. Save yourself from stress. Started: 10/07/2020 Ended: 11/18/2020 Elora Chin Valencia grew up in a toxic Christian family where she was viewed as the black sheep. Araw-araw ay ipinaparamdam sa kanya ng mundo na wala siyang lugar sa sarili niyang tahanan. She was a consistent dean's lister and an obedient daughter, which left her wondering what she had done so wrong to be disregarded as a speck of dust in the wind. They made her feel like she was just dirt, filling up the empty space. The one who would never have her own safe place. Feeling all of this contributed to her endless suicidal ideations. Baka nga tama sila. Baka nga wala siyang halaga at kailanman ay hindi na sasaya. She almost believed that. She almost held onto that notion. Not until she met the man in his BS Civil Engineering uniform and gorgeous grin, Troy Jefferson Dela Paz. He kissed her forehead, and her loud thoughts were silenced. Her demons calmed down. Her foes were defeated. For the first time in her life, she had proven her family wrong---a happy Elora Chin was possible. She was loved and well-taken care of. Troy embraced her sharp parts, not minding the wounds he might get. But fate had a lot of cruel things in store for her. Because when she thought she had reached the peak of happiness, she found myself drowning alone in the ocean she now called home, alone in her shame, alone with the waves she couldn't tame.
