Strong Manreal knows to himself that he's ill since the beginning. He was diagnosed with a common heart disease so he has to deal with a difficulty in breathing. He once lost hope but because of his undying promise to Earine, he decided to fix his life and work hard. 

When the girl returned, he will be tested by the same reason as above-mentioned. He never realizes that a simple encounter he had witnessed would trigger what he fears for so long. Then here comes a time that there's nothing he could do but to ask her one thing--and that is to leave him. When all were said and done, there's now just... erstwhile. Or is it?

For a love that is so young, toxic, and messy, is it possible to have it only once? Well, they say it must conquer all. And this story can prove you that.

"You're my betrothed." "Naliligaw ka, Miss." Inis na isasara ko na sana yung pinto ng humarang sya doon. "I don't think so. You're Terry Alcatraz right?" Terry has never been terrified all her life, ngayon lang. As she is now standing infront of a Goddess in the form of this woman with 5'10 height, pinkish white skin na hindi yata sanay sa araw, ash gray hair, at yung malalamlam na mga mata na akala mo laging inaantok. Am I still dreaming? "Sino ka ba?" "I'm your betrothed." Hay nako. May baliw na naman na naligaw. I pity her. Maganda nga. Baliw naman. "You got it wrong. Babae ako, Miss." Tsk. Bibigyan ka na nga lang din ng kapareha. Babae pa na mas maganda sayo at may saltik sa utak. Where's justice? "No. I'm in the right place. We're engaged." "Baliw ka ba?" Asar na tanong ko na sa kanya. Nauubos na ang pasensya ko dahil inaantok pa ko. Nagtatakang tiningnan ako ng mga matang kulay tsokolate na iyon. "Me?" Hinagod pa ako nito ng tingin mula ulo hanggang paa. "Shit, why am I trapped with you? I wonder. I could have atleast chose a better one. My toenails is way more appealing than you!" Ano daw? Sa sobrang inis ko ay hindi ko napigilang hubarin ang suot kong house slippers at batuhin sya niyon. Sino ba naman ang hindi maiinis? Kagigising mo lang ay may kakatok na sa tapat ng pintuan nyo para lang mangtrip. Pagkatapos sasabayan pa ng panglalait. Tila naman umurong lahat ng tapang ko ng mag angat ng tingin mula sa tsinelas na tumama sa pisngi nito ang babaeng iyon na may pares ng kulay tsokolateng mata. She gave me a chillin' smile pagkatapos ay dinampot ang tsinelas ko saka ubod ng lakas na binato din sakin yung tsinelas ko. Fudge! My pretty face! "There, we're quits. That's what engaged people do. They give and take." pagkatapos ay ngumiti ng pagkatamis tamis na akala mo santita. "Hmm. Bakit parang mas maganda pa sayo yung slippers mo? You could have bought a face too." Ano daw? Papatayin ko talaga tong baliw na babaeng ito. ***

(Trope Series # 3) Arielle was contented living her quiet life. She's got a job that pays well, a place to live, eats three times a day, and had friends that she genuinely enjoys being around with. Life's good as far as she's concerned. It may be boring for some, but she's at peace and contented and that's what's important. Until she met Zion. He's hot and funny and kind-and he wants her. So when he asks her to be fuck buddies with him, against all logic and rationality, she said yes. It's just temporary and for fun. As long as she knows her boundaries and consciously stops herself from being attached, she'll be fine. It's all for fun and experience... so how bad can it be, right?
