Totga Stories

Have you ever met someone who was once just a familiar face in the crowd? Someone you passed by in the hallways, saw or noticed from afar without giving much thought? I did and never expected our paths to cross. I never expected her to become part of my story. And I certainly never expected that one day, I would have to learn what it truly means to lose the sight of someone you never wanted to let go.

Jayne x Justine For Personal Consumption Jobsky x Claude x Gemini ​Sinasabi nilang sapat na ang dalawampu't isang araw para makabuo-o makasira-ng isang ugali. Isang siklo ng buwan. Tatlong linggo. ​Para kina Jayne at Justine, ang dalawampu't isang araw na iyon ang naging pinakamasaya, ngunit pinakamasalimuot na yugto ng kanilang mga buhay. Ito ang tatlong linggo ng mga nakaw na tingin sa pagitan ng Manila at Pasay, ng mga pangarap na binuo sa likod ng mga unibersidad, at ng isang pangakong natapos bago pa man ito tuluyang magsimula. Isang tawag sa telepono sa ika-dalawampu't isang gabi ang bumasag sa lahat. ​Anim na taon. ​Anim na taon ang lumipas na puno ng katahimikan, mga multo ng nakaraan, at mga pader na itinayo para sa sariling proteksyon. Anim na taon ng pagsisisi para sa isa, at anim na taon ng panghihinayang at trauma para sa isa pa. ​Ngunit ang nakaraan ay may kakaibang paraan ng pagbabalik. Tulad ng isang alingawngaw-isang echo-na pabalik-balik na dumarating hangga't hindi natatapos ang sigaw, muli silang pinagtagpo ng tadhana. Hindi na bilang mga estudyanteng natatakot sa bukas, kundi bilang isang Sous Chef na bitbit ang bigat ng kaniyang mga maling desisyon, at isang Management Engineer na natutunan nang mamuhay sa likod ng kaniyang mga binuong pader. ​Magsisimula ang kwento sa ingay ng isang pamilyar na café, kung saan ang unang patak ng ulan ay hudyat ng pagsisimula ng isang mahaba, masakit, ngunit healing na slow burn. ​Dahil kung minsan, ang pag-ibig na sinira ng tatlong linggo, ay nangangailangan ng anim na taon para muling mabuo.

Amid fame, Theo's world brightened when he met Lina. It was a chance encounter at a charity gala that sparked a friendship filled with laughter and shared dreams. Despite Theo's onstage energy and offstage doubts, their bond deepened. However, as their feelings became undeniable, they faced a harsh truth: their love struggled to find harmony amidst the discord of fame. They made a heartfelt promise and carried a shared melody in their hearts as they parted ways, finding solace in memories. But as Theo's stardom continued to rise and Lina's presence lingered in every song, one question remained: would their paths ever cross again?

Love stays true if two people fight for it. Cover: CarGel ♥

A girl who wants to have a boyfriend but every boy that came in her life, failed to impress her not until he met this boy that will change her whole perspective in love.

She is not who she is. He is not who he is. They are who they are not.

Naniniwala ka ba sa ideya ng 'susunod na habang buhay'? Or in simpler terms, reincarnation. Maraming tao, relihiyoso man o hindi, ang naniniwala sa ideya nito. Take Akira for example, isa s'ya sa mga naniniwala na may buhay ulit sa lupa kapag hindi mo nafulfill yung purpose mo in one life. Kaso, Akira didn't start as a believer of this prophecy until she wanted it to come true. She believed because she wanted to pick him in her next life, ang lalaking susulatan nya nang sandmakmak na liham ngunit itatago pa rin sa likod ng kanyang mga masisidhing pangarap. Ang lalaking mapapalapit lamang sa kanya, ngunit hindi mapasa-sakanya.

A collection of poems imagining what would happen if you met the person who once meant everything-years later, in another place, with different versions of yourselves.

Can love be stronger than pain?

Am I not worth the chase? I guess, I have done my part. I've done everything just to keep you. Maybe I was just so attached. Maybe I was so blind. Maybe this what they've called everything happens for a reason. You became my everything but we end up with no exact reason. Do we really need to say goodbyes? Please, no. I will miss you. Why can't I be included in your priorities? Did you love me? Our memories together still hunts me. Being with you became my favorite part of my life. You became of my favorite story but now it doesn't have a happily ever after because you gave up on me. Why? Why did you gave up? I'm writing this because we came to a point that you don't want to see me anymore. You don't want to talk to me. I'm still sad and hurt. I know one day this pain will go away just like you.... You became my The One That Got Away. ☹️

To my Dearest TOTGA I miss you.

Have you ever felt regrets of losing someone? Then these poems are for you, collection of poems for broken hearts and souls who keeps wondering and waiting for second chance.

Love in Full Bloom Series #3: Carnation's Aphiēmi "In every person we met, they serve a purpose. Either to give a lesson or change our whole life for a reason." - Bella Cardacia Oregon ------------------------------------- Date Started: March 21, 2026

First Love vs TOTGA vs BestFriend vs Present Who will be her Great Love? -- Hindi ko alam kung bakit masiyadong mapaglaro ang tadhana, mapanakit at madaya Nakakatakot maging masaya kasi bawat tawa mo, may kapalit na luha Nakakatakot umibig dahil bawat kilig may sakit na kapalit At mas lalong nakakatakot tumaya, kasi alam mong una palang masiyado nang madaya. Bakit kaya ganun? Lahat naman tayo isa lang ang gusto, ang maging masaya, magmahal at mahalin at higit sa lahat ang hindi masaktan, pero ganun nga siguro yun, life will never be fair no matter what, it is always unfair. Ano nang gagawin ko ngayon? Napahugot ako ng napakalalim na hininga bago punasan ang huling patak ng luha saking mga mata. Its been 5 years, bakit ngayon pa nila ginulo ang puso kong tahimik na. Hindi ko mawari kung ano ang gagawin ko, hindi ko alam bakit nagugulantang ang tahimik kong mundo. Ang first love ko, ang great love ko, ang tinuring kong bestfriend, at ang kasalukuyang nagpapasaya sakin. Bakit ganun? Bakit ngayon pa kung kailan hindi ko na kayang umibig pa. Kung kailan hindi ko na kayang maniwala pa. Kakayanin pa kaya ng puso ko? Gayung ngayon palang wasak na naman ito. -- BC: (thanks to) SilverXTwilight
