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.

Jillian first spotted Enzo Aldeguer at a Jollibee Store. Cute, was her first description of him. Smart-and-intelligent-and-very-manly cuteness. Neat at mukhang laging amoy mabango. So, she called him her Cute Jollibee Guy since she still did not know his name. One hottie, cutie guy at that. Jillian followed and stalked him hanggang mapagtagumpayan niyang makilala ng personal ang lalaki. Nalaman niyang Pretty Jollibee Girl naman ang tawag sa kanya ni Enzo. Okay na sana ang lahat. She liked Enzo, and Enzo liked her back. Their mutual relationship was like Jollibee Spaghetti-meaty, cheesy and sweet-sarap. Masaya siya kapag kasama ang lalaki. Unti-unti rin ay nahuhulog na ang loob niya rito. She was getting there-to falling hopelessly in love with him. Pero may excess baggage si Enzo-he had a six-year old daughter. At hindi iyon nagustuhan ng kanyang konserbatibong angkan sa probinsya lalo na ang kanyang ina. Sa ganitong sitwasyon, sino ba ang dapat na mas matimbang sa kanya? Ang pamilya o ang lalaking nagpapasaya sa kanya? She couldn't, honestly, answer that question. Will there be a future for her and her Cute Jollibee Guy? O tuturuan na lang niya ang sarili niyang maghanap ng ibang cute guy na walang excess baggage? But Jillian knew in her heart that there can only be one Cute Jollibee Guy in her life. Si Enzo Aldeguer lang. A BIG thank you to @yhang__yhang (yhangunnie) for my nice book cover. Please follow her ❤
