VILLAREAL SERIES 2: Silent Eyes (SOON TO BE PUBLISHED)
WARNING: RATED - SPG |R-🔞|
Aziel Luke Villareal, a successful engineer, was well-liked by everyone in his office. He was a hard-worker and knew how to get the job done. His only problem was that he was very shy around women. He was always too nervous to ask them out on dates, and he was always afraid of being rejected.
He was assigned to work with a new secretary, Ashleigh. She had been hired as a secretary and was eager to prove her worth. Aziel was a bit hesitant to work with her at first; he had worked with many secretaries in the past and never had a good experience.
But everything changed when, Ashleigh and Aziel's paths cross at the darkest point of his life, when despair had already swallowed every reason for him to keep going. Yet in her warmth, resilience, and quiet presence, Aziel finds a light strong enough to pierce through his shadows. Both scarred by their own battles, they build a bond rooted in trust and mutual healing, lifting each other when the world seems unbearable.
But just as Aziel begins to believe in hope again, fate delivers its cruelest blow, he is diagnosed with a brain tumor and given only three months to live. Unwilling to weigh Ashleigh down with the burden of his suffering, Aziel keeps his secret, choosing instead to vanish from her life. Before leaving for treatment abroad, he records a heartfelt video , an apology, a confession, and the painful truth of his disappearance.
In that message, Ashleigh learns that the man who once found life in her light has been fighting his own battle in silence. What remains is the question of whether their love and trust can survive the distance, the silence, and the uncertain promise of tomorrow.
