Sometimes, you do crazy things for the one you love. No matter how mean or absurd it is, gagawin mo pa rin. Kahit na magmukha kang masama. Kahit na sabihin nilang madamot ka. Kahit na alam mong mali. Ika nga nila: "All is fair in love and war." It has no bounds. No rules. So fuck everything, right? Just when Maxwell finally realizes her true feelings for Rush, that's the time when he chooses to leave. No texts. No calls. No goodbye. Not even a single word from him. He just... disappeared. For three years, Grant never left her side-hoping Maxwell will love him again like before. Everything was smoothly sailing until the said devil decided to come back. Mean 2 of 2.

The S #2 There are different kinds of love in the world. May pagmamahal para sa pamilya, para sa kaibigan, para sa mga taong malapit talaga sayo, at bukod tanging pagmamahal para sa isang tao. Loving freely is an idea that seemed easy, but in reality, it is not. Some love are unrequited, some love are too much, some love are martyr, some love aren't enough, and some love... are doomed to be kept and hidden, until the heart burns out from loving quietly and ends up fading until you can't hear it beating anymore.

The S #3 She was the most innocent and purest Serrano... until she wasn't. Alister Santiesteban is the name that Hyon wrote in the back of her notebook with hearts all over when she was eleven years old. Ever since she laid her eyes on him the day he helped her when she tripped, she never looked at anyone else again. Until...

She hates it when he gets cold and bosses her around. She hates him for always being there to stop her in her wicked games. She hates him for making her feel like she's done something wrong. She hates him for treating her like a child who needs some babysitting. She hates him. She hates him with all of her life. She hates him... She hates him so much because he doesn't care if she does. When 1 of 2. This duology is incomplete. Book 2 is not out. Thanks.

The S #1 Hindi ako santa. I'm not nice on a daily basis. I've done things that conservatives and prudes will frown upon. I've got vices and guilty pleasures. I've done things that good and obedient students wouldn't. I've done the worse thing that you could do to a friend. Yeah, people will say I'm bad, but I don't care though. I'm every bad thing... And he's the complete opposite of me. He's an achiever, he's nice and patient, he's prim and proper, he's all things that are good. Me? I'm bad for him. I will only drag him down. That's what they say.... But will I care this time, though?

She should just go and forget him... It's too bad she couldn't. And worse, because it looks like he already did. If This 2 of 2.
