Some people are meant to stay in your memories, not in your future. Xevia never believed love was a distraction-until it almost cost her everything. She met him during their freshmen year as accountancy students. Same batch. Same classrooms. Same endless nights balancing ledgers, surviving exams, and chasing the dream of becoming CPAs. Somewhere between coffee-stained notes and sleepless review sessions, friendship turned into something neither of them planned. Then, just when graduation was finally within reach... He changed. No explanations. No closure. Just silence, distance, and a betrayal she never saw coming. People always say, *"Lason ang pag-ibig sa babaeng may pangarap."* She hated that saying before. After him, she understood exactly what it meant. So she chose herself. She graduated, passed every challenge life threw at her, and accepted an accounting position in the UAE-leaving behind the city, the memories, and the only man she ever truly loved. Years later, an alumni homecoming brought everyone back together. One night. One reunion. One unfinished story. He looked at her the way people look at things they've spent years wishing they hadn't lost. She looked at him like he was nothing more than a chapter she'd already closed. But some endings have a way of asking for another chance. The only question is... Can love rebuild what betrayal destroyed? Or are some people destined to become **the ruin of us**?

She was the class president-driven, disciplined, and determined to build a future no one could take from her. He was the gifted boy with an easy smile and a careless charm, brilliant enough to breeze through life, yet warm enough to make everyone believe nothing could ever touch him. They were never meant to fit together. And yet, somewhere between late-night talks, shared dreams, and the quiet comfort of being understood, they fell in love. After graduation, they chose each other in the most uncertain way possible: by building a life together before the world had agreed they were ready. But love outside the safety of college is not gentle. Money ran thin. Family turned cold. Judgment came from every direction. And when they lost the child they had already begun to love, grief settled over them like a shadow that would not leave. Still, beneath borrowed skies and broken promises, they held on. What began as youthful affection became a test of survival, where love had to fight for every breath, every hope, every tomorrow. In a world that belittled them and tried to pull them apart, they discovered that devotion could be fierce, heartbreaking, and unbreakable all at once. Beneath Borrowed Skies is a passionate, emotional story of first love, devastating loss, and the kind of bond that can endure even when everything else falls away. Language:Taglish
