Oddly Familiar by kahapsaywrites

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.

Every lifetime since, she's been cursed to return, carrying the weight of a love story that never survived. Now, she's reborn as the heir to Montclair Sciences, a billion-dollar legacy in the brink of collapse. She no longer remembers her past life; all she knows is that her responsibilities already feel like an uphill battle against her own sanity. The last thing she needs is another breakdown, or another haunting dream of a man calling out her name as she dies in his arms. But the past never really stays buried.
