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.

Nalilimitahan nga ba ang bilang ng tibok ng puso para sa isang tao? Ang gusto lang naman ni Xei, isang estudyante mula sa Section I ng isang science high school, ay matataas na grades at tahimik na "crush" life. Tanggap naman niya na imposibleng magustuhan siya ng crush niyang sobrang nagpatibok ng puso niya sa una pa lang nilang pagkikita at heartthrob ng batch nila -- si Kyle. Pero magugulo ang tahimik niyang buhay nang dahil sa mga di inaasahang pangyayari: nang magustuhan siya ng kaibigan ni Kyle na si Chris, nang magustuhan ni Kyle ang kaibigan niyang si Rai . . . at nang mapalapit siya kay Kyle na mas nagpalala ng mga nararamdaman niya. Dito higit matututunan ni Xei na hindi lang basta-basta sinusunod ang tibok ng puso, lalo na kung may masasaktan -- kailangang pag-aralan din.
