She Was Mine Since Seventh Grade
42 parts Ongoing Mature"Maybe we were meant to meet that day-not to fall in love agad, but to grow together first."
Lance Larkin Andrada is the fearless, charismatic guy everyone looks up to-on the court, in leadership, and eventually, even in politics.
Maureen Nicole Vergara is the smart, mysterious, emotionally-guarded girl who everyone assumes has her life perfectly put together-until you get close enough to see the cracks.
They first met in elementary-isang simpleng banggaan na may 'red string' vibes. But it wasn't love at first sight. It was growth at first crash. From seatmates to secret crushes, mutual understandings to unspoken pain, student councils to stolen glances, and all the in-betweens of family pressure, mental breakdowns, emotional weight, and real-life decisions-this is their story.
From elementary to real adulthood. From "bata pa tayo" to "fiancée" and "fiancé." From almost to always. Realistic. Romantic. Raw. Mapapatawa ka, mapapaiyak ka, minsan sabay pa. And yes, hindi ito tinipid sa kirot, kilig, at kabadtripan.
Welcome to the love story of Larkin and Maureen.
