Aside from sushi and sashimi, do you know what else is fishy?

•••

Beauty and brains Akira Georgina Abe has never felt so 'bobo' her entire life. Well, not until college happened. But then math is a totally different story. It's always either a teacher factor or her dehydrated brain cells failing to grind numbers. Engineering be damned but she can't fail and give up being a dean lister aka her only way to be redeemed from her mother's titanic-size expectations.

To save her ass from the impending doom--that is, the glaring "singko" grade she's possible to get--she braves the one big thing she's mortified to do: Ask Brantley Ravanera, her bully since grade 1 and, not to mention, her annoying ex-crush, for help.

Well, it's been ages. Dealing with the guy should be easy by now. She just has to focus on her goal, not on his dimples, and be oblivious of his melting gaze that sure penetrates her computer screen. But would that be really enough to stop poor Georgie's fishy heartbeats from getting in the way?

Some dreams are inherited. Others, you have to fight for. At fifteen, Thylane Puertollano seems to have it all. Gifted, graceful, and adored, she paints with the elegance of a master, dances with the poise of a prima ballerina, and is on the fast track to becoming a cardiothoracic surgeon-just like her mother the world reveres. Her life is picture-perfect, curated by legacy, discipline, and a love that has always felt unshakable. But the sea is rarely still. When a long-buried branch of her family resurfaces with secrets and ultimatums, Thylane's world begins to fracture. Whispers of an arranged marriage. A rivalry soaked in old blood. Loyalties tested, identities questioned. As pressure mounts and her once-clear path begins to blur, she feels herself slipping beneath the weight of who she's supposed to be. Then-like a tide returning to shore-he appears. A familiar face from a past she has long never forgotten. In his eyes are memories she's tried to drown, and questions her heart never stopped asking. Now Thylane must choose: Obey the legacy that is etched in her DNA-or chase the freedom calling from the waves. Play the part of the perfect granddaughter-or risk it all to reclaim her voice. Sink. Or swim. Visions of the Sea is a coming-of-age story about love, legacy, the scars of silence, and the fierce, aching journey of becoming your truest self-having the courage to choose oneself-even when the tides threaten to pull you under.

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 Category
