“Kung pipicturan mo nanaman ako, dali na. Magpo-pose na ‘ko.”
“Hindi na kailangan.”
“Ha?”
“Hindi mo na kailangan mag-pose para mapicturan.”
“Ano? E paano—“
“Mas gusto ko mapicturan ka ng isang candid shot para alam kong hindi ka ready na may kumukha ng litrato mo. Para alam ko—ikaw talaga ‘yung kinukuhaan ko ng litrato. ‘Yung mismong ikaw.”

Conquering the Barriers
SIS (Social Issue Series) #4: Bullying They say that beauty is a luxury. That good looks is the only privilege that matters. That the world is only in favor of those who were born pretty. Sa panahon nga raw ngayon, parang kasalanan na ang pagiging less attractive. You're unappealing? Emotionally weak? Naive? How pathetic. Now you gotta deal with the consequences, loser. Sounds like bullshit? Yup. The truth may be harsh but it is what it is. Once you failed to reach the very high standards set by the society, you're doomed. Yara Isabelle got the deadliest combination of being unattractive, soft-hearted and innocent. But she used to get by and survive the bullying just fine. Because she got her knight-in-shining armor. Her childhood sweetheart. Not until he stopped saving her. Not until he stopped caring. Not until he got fed up of everything. Sky Edison used to be full of compassion. But that was before something terrible happened within their family. His perception had changed. He now finds it ridiculous that people let themselves get treated badly. However, the downside is that for some significant circumstances, these two have to share a condo as they enter senior high school. What could possibly happen given their situation? How would it feel like living under the same roof not with your bully but your former superhero who's now just a witness of your despair? How would it feel like going home to a place with a person who gets to see you getting bullied everyday at school? Wattys 2020 Winner under Young Adult CategoryComplete
Secretly (Candy Stories #2)
Lulubog, lilitaw--ganyan ang feelings ni Diane Christine para kay Jesuah. Pero paano kung sa isang iglap ay malaman niyang mahal din siya nito? Aamin na ba siya o patuloy pa rin niyang ililihim ang tunay na nadarama? *** "If there are no telltale signs of feelings, is it really there?" May feelings pero hindi sigurado. May kaba pero lumilipas. May kilig pero hindi lagi. May gusto pero may disgusto. May first love ba na madaling itago? I know what things I like and why I like them. Siya lang ang hindi talaga 'ko sigurado... kung bakit parang gusto ko. *** I've had relationships. Good ones. Bad ones. Natapos nang hindi ko alam kung ano ang kulang o ano ang mali. Sabi nila, minsan sa katitingin sa malayo kaya hindi nakikita agad na nasa malapit lang ang hinahanap natin. I don't know if that's really the case with Jesuah Hernandez. Sobrang lapit niya. Sobra-sobra. Siya ang first crush ko. Hindi sigurado kung siya ang first love. 'Yong feelings ko sa kanya, lumilitaw at nawawala. Parang hindi rin gano'n kalalim. Pero may kaba kapag nagkakalapit kami. Nagagalit ako kapag nagkaka-girlfriend siya. Hindi sigurado kaya lahat ng iniisip, nararamdaman, at selos ko, ako lang ang nakaaalam. Lahat, patago. Lahat, pasikreto. It's not love if there are no sure signs, right? Or is it? STATUS: Published under Bliss BooksComplete
Cliche (Candy Stories #5)
Growing up insecure, Aurora firmly believes she does not suit someone as perfect as Maxwell. But with him continuing to love her despite her insecurities and fears, will Aurora finally choose to let Maxwell in--or will she keep pushing him away even if it breaks her heart? *** Every love is unique. Every heartbreak is cliche. When I was young, I met a prince who told me I'm beautiful. Sabi niya, paglaki namin, liligawan niya 'ko. We grew up, but unfortunately, I had a reverse story of the ugly duckling. The prince continued to be a prince, while I became the unpretty duck that wouldn't become swan. Bumuhaghag ang buhok ko. Umitim ako. Natadtad ng taghiyawat. Sasabihin siguro ng iba, okay lang pumangit paglaki. Beauty is something that should shine from within. But that's not completely true. Kahit ga'no kaganda ang kalooban, laging huhusgahan ang hitsura. People judge with the eyes first-always. I learned that everyone desires to be interesting, but not different. There is a standard and everyone wants the same thing-beauty, recognition, intellect. I only wanted one thing-to stop dreaming for the prince. But he's Maxwell. When he's in my life, he pulls me into his magnetic field no matter how much I resist. When he's out of my sight, I miss him. Nagkaatraso ako sa kanya no'ng college. As fate would have it, we are going to see each other. Again.Complete
Morning Star
The Morning Star. "Ok, listen. I get it." "What?" Kahit nakangiti, matiim ang tingin ni TJ. "I get it. I get that you're not the kind of person who jumps head first into the water. And I get that maybe, you want to take this slow. But I can't slow down, Kate. I'm drowning. All these feelings that I have for you, they're just too much. So I'm just letting them wash over me. And I'm not saying that you should do the same. For now, I just need you to feel what we have here. There is something here. Something na hindi ma-explain." "Don't deny it." Anito nang makitang nagsimula syang umiling. "You know you can't even if you want to. Something beautiful has happened. And I won't waste my time figuring out the whats and the whys of it. Ang alam ko lang, I'm overjoyed that I met you last night. Last night." Marahang tumawa ang binata. Umiiling-iling. Pinisil nito ang mga palad nya. "God! It seems ages ago to me. But I've never been this happy since as long as I can remember. I'm happy everytime nakikita kita. Na naririnig ko ang boses mo. Na andyan ka lang sa tabi ko at abot-kamay ko. Na you let me touch you this close." Isinuklay nito ang mga kamay sa buhok nya. Wari ay gustong patunayan ang sinabi. Nang nagpa-ubaya sya ay may kumislap sa mga mata ng binata. *-* *-* *-* R-18 Certain chapters contain mature and explicit scenes. Reader discretion is advised. Cover photo is not mine.

Uncontrolled Love❤
"Oo masakit, pero kailangan kong tanggapin" sabi nito habang pinipigilan niyang tumulo ang mga luhang namumuo sakanyang mga mata. "Kailangan kong tanggapin na kahit kailan alam kong wala akong space diyan sa puso mo." "Sinubukan kong pigilan, sinubukan kong ibaling ang atensyon ko sa ibang tao pero wala talaga, ikaw parin talaga ang laman nito." Pahabol na sabi nito. Dahan dahan naman akong lumapit sakanya hanggang sa halos isang daliri nalang ang pagitan namin. Iniangat ko ang mukha niyang kanina pa nakatingin sa baba. Nang magtama ang paningin naming dalawa ay hindi na nito napigilan pang pigilan ang pagpatak ng mga luhang kanina pa gustong pumatak. "Hindi mo na kailangan ng space sa puso ko, dahil sayong sayo na ako. Matagal mo nang nakuha ang puso ko at ang mga labi ko" dahan dahan ko din naman inilapit ang mga labi ko sa labi niya. ~~~~•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~ Warning! Warning! Warning!
