Eliana Izel Mendoza once believed she had her life perfectly mapped out. Back in senior high, she was the composed student whose world revolved around plans, deadlines, and quiet ambitions. She wasn't supposed to fall for anyone....especially not for Laurence Gomez, the boy whose calm presence felt like a secret she was never meant to keep.
Years later, Eliana's life looks exactly as she hoped: successful, independent, and built on the steadiness she once craved. A licensed architect living on her own, she has traded school corridors for city skylines. Yet beneath the rhythm of her carefully managed days, something feels unfinished.
When a chance encounter with Laurence's mother reconnects her to the Gomez family, Eliana finds herself unexpectedly facing the past she thought she'd outgrown. Laurence-now a pilot who's returned home for good, reappears, holding not just the plans for his family's new house, but pieces of a memory she's long tucked away.
As construction begins, boundaries blur between professional and personal, and the quiet tension that once lived between them resurfaces, more mature, but no less complicated. Meanwhile, Gavino Leander Ramirez, her old constant, lingers on the edges of her present life, steady and loyal, but never quite crossing the line she's drawn.
In a story that folds between past and present, Folded Like Notes traces the slow unraveling of emotions once left unread. Because sometimes, the things we bury in our youth don't disappear....they wait for the right time, and the right person, to unfold again.
