PAALALA: Planado na ang mga pangyayaring nasulat at isusulat sa mga susunod na updates. Kung mayroon mang pagkakahawig ang mga pangalan ng tao, lugar, pangyayari atbp. sa isang kuwentong nabasa niyo na ay sadyang nagkataon lamang iyon dahil walang intensyon ang may-akda na kumopya ng gawa ng iba. Salamat.
