Almost Yours
Keisha Elise Abuevo never expected much from college - just quiet days, invisible walks between classes, and a seat by the library window where no one would bother her. She liked life simple, predictable, and distant. That was the plan... until she met Arkhangel Buenaventura.
He wasn't loud. He wasn't popular. He was just there - across the table at 4:15 every afternoon, sketching in silence and noticing things no one else did. Like the way she always wrote in the margins of her notebook. Or how she chewed on granola bars when she was anxious.
Their connection isn't instant. It's built in glances, small gestures, and missed chances. Between unspoken feelings and near-confessions, Keisha finds herself caught in something she never planned for: falling for someone who made her feel seen.
But life doesn't wait for timing to be perfect - and sometimes, almost is as close as you get.
A slow-burn, first-love story about quiet moments, growing pains, and the kind of affection that stays with you long after it's over.
