"Ikakasal kayo sa isa't isa pagkatapos niyong mag aral, mga anak. Hindi ba masaya iyon?" Nakangiting sabi ni Victor, ama ni Vernon. Nagulat ang lahat. Si Vernon ay piniling wag magpakita ng kahit anong emosyon habang tahimik na nakikiramdam. Sa kabilang banda, Si Julia ay parang nanigas sa kanyang kinauupuan. Nasasaktan siya sa mga pangyayari. At dahil hindi makatiis, tumayo ang dalaga at sinabi ang nararamdaman. "Hindi po ako papayag, Ma, Pa. Tito at Tita. Pasensya na po." Nakayukong sabi ni Julia. "Bakit naman anak, hindi ba mahal mo naman ang anak namin na si Vernon?" Tanong sa kanya ni Erica, ang nanay ni Vernon. Habang kinakabahan na ang dalaga, si Vernon ay patuloy lamang ang pagkain. Pilit pinararating na wala siyang pakialam sa nangyayari. "Hindi po Tita. Nagkakamali po kayo. Hindi ko po mahal ang anak ninyo." Lakas loob na sinabi ni Julia sabay talikod sa lugar na iyon.

  • Hi, Doc

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.
