The Contract of Us (bxb) [Under Editing]
Everyone sees Zane Castillo as the perfect guy. He's rich, handsome, popular, and untouchable-the kind of student everyone admires... or fears. At school, he's the king who always gets what he wants, and no one dares stand in his way. No one except Luna Garcia. Quiet, withdrawn, and living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Luna has spent years surviving in silence. Every school day feels like a battle as he becomes the favorite target of Zane's cruel games. He never fights back. He never asks for help. He simply endures, hoping tomorrow might hurt a little less. Then everything changes. A business deal between their powerful families leads to one shocking condition: Zane and Luna must get married. The bully is suddenly forced to live with the very person he's spent years destroying. For Zane, it's the worst punishment imaginable. For Luna, it's a nightmare that never ends. What begins as a contract built on resentment, fear, and painful memories slowly turns into something neither of them expected. As hidden truths come to light and old wounds are forced into the open, both boys are pushed to confront the people they've become-and the people they still have a chance to be. Can someone who caused so much pain truly change? Can a heart that's been broken over and over learn to trust again? Or are some scars simply too deep to heal?
Oddly Familiar
Some people feel like memories the first time you meet them. She knew better than to trust someone so soon - pero may kung anong sa kanya na parang matagal nang kilala. What began as a spontaneous decision turned into late-night conversations, shared silences, quiet stares, and a kind of intimacy neither of them expected - or fully understood. For her, it wasn't love. Not yet. But it felt like home. And maybe, that was even scarier. Just when things were beginning to make sense... two pink lines changed everything. "Buntis ako." In a world where love felt dangerous, marriage seemed like a trap, and the future was always uncertain, she's forced to make a choice: to face a truth she's not ready for, tell someone she's not sure she can trust, and carry a life she never planned. Is she ready to tell him - and risk breaking something she barely understands? Or stay silent, keep it, and face it all alone? Oddly Familiar is a story about moments that change us, people who arrive when we least expect them, and a kind of love that feels both terrifying and true. It's about growing up too soon, letting go too late, and finding courage in the most unexpected places. Because sometimes, the people we meet by accident are the ones who stay. And sometimes, we ride off with strangers who feel oddly... familiar.

Will they walk away unscathed, or will they end up breaking the very rules they swore to follow? ____________________________________________________________________ Jean-Martin Ferrer has spent his life building an empire. His ruthless efficiency has earned him both admiration and fear. With no patience for distractions-especially love-he sees relationships as nothing more than liabilities.

But when the door opens, it's not a stranger waiting-it's Jean-Martin Ferrer. The man she never expected to see again.
Always Have Been, Always Will Be | ✓
Might not. Probably won't. Maybe never. Unlikely. Doubtful. Despite being everything he could have been, Elize constantly settled in the dark, lurking with the impossibles and uncertainties. He believed that he would grow up and take the path of life in a single route with one straight line; no turns, no shortcuts. Perhaps it was because his one and only flesh and blood prompted him to think that if he didn't act like how he was made and how he was supposed to be, he would never reach the light at the end of the tunnel, or never reach his dreams, never be accepted, never be treated seriously...never be loved. The word "Always" was never in Elize's vocabulary-an exception with always doubting, always trying, always...just dreaming. But never the good kind of "Always". Then he tasted it, the bittersweet sensation in his tongue when his mother left him to work abroad. Elize then started to thrive, meet new friends, socialize, be a human...fall in love. For the first time, Elize felt free, felt genuine, felt...guilty? Guilty...was it because he felt glad his mother left, or because he met someone that made him start to feel the Always' in his Nevers? Regardless, he dedicated his whole life in chasing that assurance in his world of doubts, and he simply could not back out now. But when good things come to an end, the choice is yours if you want to let it go, or fight for it. If you choose the latter, make sure to draw blood and fight until you're dead. Just like Elize did.Complete![Aking Diwata [short story]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/11978153-256-k766027.jpg)
