"I want to have her by my side, my hand rolling in hers. I want to be there hugging her body whilst Corinne Bailey Rae sings us a story about a star, or when Dave Matthews makes the number 41 matter. At 10 PM when the lights go bang, when the band plays our song. At 11 PM drunk out of our wits and laughing all over each other. At 12 midnight, stoned and gazing into each other's eyes in the darkest corner of this city." This is Girl Trouble 1.2, a text-only, online version of a Filipino graphic novel about relationships published by Visprint, Inc. Nominee for 2007 Madrigal-Gonzalez Best First Book Award. Originally available in National Bookstore, Powerbooks, Fully Booked, and Pandayan. There might be some copies left out there. If you can find one, yeah! But for now, enjoy this text-only version. Sequel coming up soon. :)

ONLY A MAYBE, NEVER A YES
You're probably dying to know how this mess wraps up. Like, do they get that big, rainy, dramatic make-out? Does heartbreak suddenly get a plot twist that makes all the pain look artsy and necessary? Nope. Sorry, not that movie. This story's for the ones who get stuck in the "almost." The ones who text at 2 a.m. and call it friendship, even when it's way messier than that. It's all the feelings you never say out loud, and the pretending that helps you get through the day. Love in this story isn't fireworks. It's a quiet ache that sits with you, polite and relentless. Yeah, there's kissing. There's all that skin-on-skin, tangled-up-in-the-gray-area stuff. But here's the kicker: someone always leaves. Someone always waits around, hoping for a miracle that never RSVPs. So, before you dive in, ask yourself-ever loved someone who was never really yours? If not, lucky you. But if you have... pull up a chair. This one's for you.

For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.Complete
Between What Was and What Could Be
She thought love would be simple - until it taught her how much it could change her. What once felt certain now feels distant, and the girl who used to smile without reason is learning how to start over. In a life that once felt complete, she now finds herself torn between what's gone and what's still here. Between memories that refuse to fade and the one that's quietly trying to reach her. This is a story of holding on and letting go, of choosing between the comfort of the past and the uncertainty of something new. And in the end, she'll have to decide - is love worth the pain of staying, or the risk of starting over?
Inside the Antagonist's Heart
We always hear and read the side of every protagonist in a story. For once, let's see the side of an antagonist; the way she thinks, how she acts, what she feels, and most importantly, how she succeeds to become the main character of the story.Complete
The Daisy Effect
Essa Harmony Argana's senior year plan was supposed to be simple: survive algebra without crying, dodge her mom's daily TED Talks about straight A+ grades, and make sure her childhood best friend Raymar didn't blow up the TLE canteen. That was it. Clean. Manageable. Foolproof. Nowhere on that list: falling for a fourteen-year-old sophomore who kept ambushing her with daisies and handwritten letters that smelled faintly of cologne and trouble. Tyron Sanchez is a disaster for her GPA-a charming, relentless sophomore who seems to have made it his mission to prove that age is just a number. And then there's Raymar Bastian, who knows her better than she knows herself... and is starting to look at her like he's finally realized she's not just one of the guys. Now Essa has to choose between the safe, familiar heart she's always known, and the reckless, thrilling one that makes her forget every carefully laid plan. And if she's not careful, she might lose both her future and her oldest friend in the process.Complete
Threads of Tapestry
Different stories, different fates, different lessons. This is a collection of my short stories and one-shots that introduce you to different perspectives and aim to share valuable messages about love and life. - Sometimes, we just need a story that allows us to feel the things that make us human. That vulnerability, the warmth...I hope you could feel them through my pieces. May the words from these stories reach and embrace the depths of you. Like a hug from someone you just need to feel alive again, the kind that gives you the strength to try and face everything once more. Note that: Some of the stories you'll find here were written a few years ago (around 2020-2022), some previously, and all are compiled here. They are not sorted by date or in any particular order (except for those with several parts), so I can't say the ones on the first pages were the first ones I wrote. I might put here some of my upcoming or soon-to-be-written short stories as well. So you can always pick randomly and read. Enjoy reading! I do not solely own the book cover I used. I utilized and edited the elements from Canva. All credit goes to the rightful owner. - airis, 2023Complete
