I'm scared of the sea. I can't help but think of the danger it brings. The width and depth seem forever. But I know that someday, I'm going to swallow all my fears and sail into that immense body of menace. Because I have to find him. I have to see him. I have words I haven't told him yet. There are things he needs to know and I don't care if it matters now or it never really mean anything at all. I just have to find him.

From strangers to friends. From friends to close friends. From close friends to lovers. When Joey met Psalm, she didn't think that they'd ever be together. Paano ba naman, ex niya ang best friend nito! Psalm had seen her at her lowest, and she didn't think that there's a possibility of them being together... Pero habang tumatagal, mas lalong napapalapit ang loob niya dito. But how could they be together if he couldn't trust her? Trust... parang isang maliit na bagay lang, pero kapag wala sa isang relasyon, hindi mo alam kung hanggang kailan magtatagal.

(U Series #1) Para kay Chino Alejandro, the best thing about life is its simplicity. Panatag ang loob niyang nakakakain ang pamilya nila tatlong beses sa isang araw. Kampante na siyang nakakasama ang mga kaibigan sa klase at computer games. At masaya na siyang mas nagiging close na sila ng all-time crush niya. Rose petals. Humiga sa kalsada. Skateboard. Maghintay ng himala. Beers. Pagka-intimidate sa chandeliers. Unexpected drunk tattoos. Ang Mabuting Salita ni Deus. Paintings. Prayer meeting sa loob ng elevator. Checkered polo shirts. Spoken words. . . at mag-YOLO. When lots of craziness, belief contradictions, and spontaneous adventures intertwine with uncensored words, not supposed to have feelings and out of hand emotions - life can get a lil bit out of hand for Chino. It's about time to get out from his comfort box to think, decide and act. FAST. Before that one particular girl gets trap in the box she wants to get out from. Life can never be just that simple and that's the best thing about it.

"Malalim," aniya. Tumikhim. "Mukhang based on experience." Tumawa si Kaye, hindi um-oo, hindi rin humindi. "Ikaw, ano'ng answer mo?" "Ano na bang pagmamahal pinag-uusapan natin? Fans, supporters-readers o romantic na ata 'yan?" natatawang aniya. "Hindi ako nag-a-assume kaso 'yang mga hugutang ganyan, eh. . .may mga pinaglalaban." Tumigil sa paglalakad si Kaye. Nagpamulsa. Ang lawak ng ngiti sa labing may kaunti pang kintab. "Sige, romantic na." Umiling si Rayne, nangingiti rin. "Bilis ng change topic natin." "Oo nga, eh. Let's take it slow," anito, may pilyang pagkagat pa ng kaunti sa labi. "Dito muna tayo sa usapang 'to."
