Jack Hansard is the man who can sell you anything. Luck in a bottle, fame in a box, dreams on a leash, you name it: if he doesn't have it, he'll convince you he has something better. He's a trader on what's known as the Black Market - the occult Black Market, that is. If you're in need of that extra special something to curse your ex-lover or win your fortune, Hansard's the man to go to. Just make sure you check the 'best before' date on anything you buy. This is Season 1 of the Jack Hansard short story series - each Episode is a separate story, but follows an overarching plot much like a TV series. I'd love to hear your thoughts on it!

At a very young age, Gino Romualdez suffered from a heart disease which caused him to be very careful for his life. All of his dreams were slowly crashing down, all of his plans for himself and for her Ate Sabrina, disappeared. He felt everything he ever wanted was taken away from him all at once. But Vanilla Mallari, never allowed that to happen. For her first love, she is willing to do everything. She's willing to take all the pain away for the sake of his happiness. For years, he convinced himself that he will survive, that he will live for he doesn't want to leave the people he loves. But fate's really unfair, after all the struggles one thing's for sure; Gino is willing to do everything, whatever it takes; for he doesn't want to make his dreams just be dreams. Knowing that he'll die soon, he made all the memories he can make for he won't be forgotten fast. But she never liked the idea. For she will do everything--all for love 'cause she believes that she is the only way. She's his medicine. She's his cure.
