COMPLETED
There are many jokes... that we cannot laugh about-and the ones we pretend to laugh at. For Ligaya, whose name speaks of joy, happiness is something she's still learning to find. She longs for its purity, yet the weight of life often says otherwise. Then came a man-who saw her in a way she wasn't prepared for. And for someone as vulnerable as her, that kind of gaze is both a gift... and a strong wind that pushed her toward a path she never meant to take- that totally changed... everything.
As she tries to navigate life's heavy expectations, torn between the pressure of choosing the right career and the uncertainties of falling in love, she's left with a question no one can answer for her:
Will devoting herself to a dream secure her joy, or will holding on to both ambition and affection only leave her feeling even more lost?

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book. It shows you how they both work on changing for the better, while trying to overcome the obstacles in their relationship and fight for each other till the end. ** Warning!!

Just Be Friends
"I won't complain if you don't provide me with nutella. I won't complain if you don't buy me Victoria's Secret lingerie. I won't complain if you sit on the wardrobe.
