"Have I told you about the stars and where they come from?" Granny looked above as she pulled up her arms as if she was trying to reach the stars above. "The stars are just gas and dust which collapse due to gravity... at least that's what I thought", I chuckled which made her pinch me on my side. "The stars are made because of the unconditional love of the moon to the sun, that even when the love burns her, she still stays until she crambles." She said as she placed her cold hands on my cheeks. "That's when the stars are born".

Our Fate [OUR SERIES #2]
Hating people and making them hate me is what I do. It doesn't matter if I did it intentionally or not. For years, I have been living my life giving disappointment, hatred, and putting those people's lives in danger. I don't care because that's how they made me feel. But why am I conscious of what you think about me? Why do I feel the need to obey, respect and make you think that I am a good person? What power do you think you hold? And who do you think you are? Eventually, feelings grew, mine became love that I want to keep for eternity. We both tried our best to fight for the love that we think we deserve. We both promised ourselves to conquer the waves and climb mountains to reach the hands of the person that we love. We strive hard to protect the string, and to not let anyone or anything cut them. We were so desperate that we forgot it wasn't just the string that connects us. It was also our love, our souls and our fate. Our love was so deep that if one tries to touch it, they drown. Our souls were so intertwined that we became one till death. And our fate was cursed... that we ended like this... Did fate really play with us? Or it just puts us in a place where no one could drown in our love and to break the curse? Status: Completed. Date Started: July 23, 2022 Date Completed: September 8, 2023 SkyyryuComplete

What we have is just now. As long as she loves me. As long as she wants to be with me. As long as there is 'we'. I love her! But the rainbow is not just a blend of vibrant and bright colors. It doesn't even stay for a long period of time-- just enough for us to see and in a fleet of time is gone, leaving us wondering if it's real. A rainbow doesn't have black and white. It wasn't just like that. Same as love. Same as us. There were times that i want to give her up. Not because my love did fade, rather, my love is too much. Too much that letting her go is the only option left for her to choose me without hesitation, without guilt, freed of lies. I want her to grow, to weigh things as it is. I want her to make me feel that being with me is her choice. I want her to realize that i am hers and that she have to surrender herself to me as well. I want her to love me because that is the way she feels and not because it was the safest way. Being with her is paradise. It was a mixture of colored pastel. It was too vibrant to explain. But at a sudden twist of downs and ups, we are shaking. Loving her has become my weakness. The weakening thought of losing her when I fuck up is too much to run me insane. I'm overreacting perhaps. But being with her, means walking in a narrow-road of heaven. There's no security, no assurance. One wrong move, and I'll be slipping away. Just in the never ending pain of darkness, of solitude, of self-struggle. Loving her has become my addiction. I couldn't get enough of it. But so they say, what's too much can cause harm. Maybe I'm loving her too much that she finds it hard to breathe when i'm around. But yes, it is just a wishful thinking; things that I'll surely not going to say to her because i will never ever earn the courage to say so. We are just nothing but a 'fateful coincidence.'
Cecindei: Zeita Frumusetii
[ MPREG ] [ Trans X Straight ] Love is often blamed for the worst human decisions. But love is never the first sin. Obsession is. Vanna enters a world where cruelty is forgiven as long as it is beautiful. Where power wears a flawless smile, and violence is dismissed as indulgence. She has seen what obsession does. How it bruises, humiliates, and breaks. She has watched it crawl into her sister's life and leave her hollowed out. And she has learned the most dangerous truth of all: monsters are protected when they are desired. Refusing to remain a witness to suffering, Vanna chooses something far more dangerous than justice: entry. Her decision draws her into the orbit of the Valos, a closed, elite circle where influence is inherited, power disguises itself as elegance, and turning affection into leverage and devotion into control. To survive among them is to learn their language. Favors instead of kindness. Obsession instead of love. Silence instead of mercy. As she moves among them, tension sharpens into attraction, and abhorrence into fascination. Every glance becomes a negotiation. Every confrontation peels away the illusions she has lived by, forcing her to confront what she truly is capable of becoming. Desire coils where hatred once lived, and the line between manipulation and intimacy dissolves. With each secret revealed, Vanna is forced to confront a truth she never anticipated: the Valos do not merely test her morals-they awaken something feral, powerful, and intoxicating within her. What begins as a mission rooted in protection and vengeance slowly transforms into something far more unsettling. Self-revelation. Vanna is no longer certain whether she is there to destroy the world that harmed her sister, or to claim its power as her own. Because in a society built on obsession, domination, and privilege, the most dangerous woman is not the one who loves too deeply. But the one who learns how to be desired without losing herself.
Hold my hand
The sky is clear and the stars shone beautifully, " Babe, hold my hand..." I looked at him, looking at the stars above as I hear his heart beat on his chest. I held his hand, gusto ko laging hawakan ang kamay nya. I have this crazy fear na baka mawala sya... " Don't go, okay?" I said as the wind blow across the open windows, I closed my eyes ready to sleep. I feel half awake. He's playing with my hand. Minsan muntikan ko mabitawan ang kamay nya kaya I held it tight, napitlag tuloy sya. Mukang medyo nakaidlip na... Argh. He is not stopping from playing my hand. Sometimes he's shaking it kaya medyo nahuhulog ang kamay ko pero hindi natutuloy. I guess my hand don't have any intention of letting his hand go. Kung di lang ako inaantok babatukan ko to kahit asawa ko pa to eh. The wind blew and the wind chimes made this calming sounds led me deeper in my sleep. I felt him stretch his fingers kaya bumibitaw na ulit yung kamay ko. Ayokong bumitaw. Pero unti-unting humihiwalay sa kamay nya ang kamay ko. The voice in my mind is screaming 'No!'. 'I don't wanna let go, please' sabi ng utak ko... Ngunit bago man tuluyang mahiwalay ang kamay ko sa kamay nya ay naramdaman ko muli ang mga daliri nya na kinukulong muli ang pag-aari nito.

"You may not want to be in my head. You might find someone other than myself that you won't be able to forget. It'll haunt you like a nightmare you can't tell. " "Silly. What's in that tough demeanor, ate Cray?" tumawa lang si Ember at kumapit ulit sa braso ko. "I like you. That's enough right?" Napailing na lang ako sa inaasal nito. If she'll learn our history, she'll then understand. Pinalis ko yung kamay nitong nakakapit na naman sa braso ko. "Compose yourself, Ember. I don't like you. You're just like a sister to me. Someone I had to protect with my life." I caught the way those words cut through her. It's visible in the same set of lifeless coal eyes that I am most familiar with. "Bakit?" I stared at her blankly. "Atleast tell me what you don't like about me." "That's exactly why it hurts the way it hurts." Napangiti ako ng mapait. "You have too many questions, too many words, in your head. But those will be left unsaid. Like me, you have to suffer through the intricacy of feeling too much every single day of your life. It hurts like hell." "Damn you. I like you." "You like me for what?" "You. You're not like everyone else. You're so sure of yourself. You're clever. You're self-made. You're everything. Everyone likes you. So you should be mine." I laughed at how shallow those things meant for her. Someone who can't even meet me in the depths of my shattered soul. "Thanks. But those are all my disorder." As i was about to turn my back, she whispered, "I actually feel sorry for you. You still don't know what it was that you even had. And yet still choose to lose. But one day, you'll see me for who I really am. And you're going to hate yourself for turning me down." No, Ember. You're wrong. I know you. You don't know me. Our past will surely haunt us. For you, I'll just be a girl known by everyone. But in fact, known by no one. It's terrible isn't it? The way we throw people away. ****Complete
She Who Was A He (Hacienda Series #1)
Bawat kirot ay may katumbas na paghihiganti. Yes, every pain demands a payback. That's the first thing I learned when I loved him. Not consciously, not right away-but slowly, in pieces. He taught me how to love. His love was wildfire-reckless, consuming, beautiful in the way it ruined everything. I thought I was lucky to have it. I thought he saw something in me. Maybe he did. Maybe he saw the parts that were already breaking. He taught me how to bend the rules, how to silence the voice in my head that said "this isn't right." With him, right and wrong blurred until they didn't matter. Until all that mattered was staying close enough not to lose him, but distant enough not to drown. And then came pain. He taught me pain in a thousand unspoken ways. In words that stung more than silence. In apologies that came too late. In touches that lingered with regret. And pain... And pain. Again and again No fairy tale. No forever. It was never about soulmates. It was just... a story. A complicated, messy, painful story. But still, I gambled. I bet my heart on something that didn't deserve it. And in the end, that so-called love? It destroyed me. It didn't just break me-it broke everything I cared about. Everyone I loved. It burned through every soft thing I had left inside me. Because that love... Was disastrous. Behind the illusion of love hid everything I was afraid of: pain, betrayal, lies, manipulation. A heartbreak wrapped in promises. A knife dressed like a kiss. But here's what no one tells you: after heartbreak comes something sharper. Stronger. Revenge. And revenge-it's not sweet. It's not cold. It's best served hot. The kind of heat that doesn't ask for closure. It takes it. I, who was a he, now turned into a she. I will serve pain out of pain. Not to mirror the cruelty, but to remind the world: You don't get to hurt someone like me and walk away unburned.Complete
Honne; Tatemae
"No! Stop!" I could see her fading silhouette. She keeps on walking away just like the way I dreamt of her every night. 'No! Please don't walk away. I need to see your face. I need to know your name. I need to find you.' But I know that it wasn't enough. If there's anything that she's good at, it is into dodging people away. "Please!?" I almost beg. "I need to see you. Just stop." I keep on running and chasing after her. But like in every dreams, she kept on slowly fading away. And I could feel the same emptiness within whenever I've dreamt of this. It starts with her fading hands. Like a human form that's painfully breaking into tiny crystallized pieces that's scattered into thin air, she's dissolving in an incredibly fast-paced. "No. Please don't!" I could feel the tears that's running down on my cheeks as I try to grab her fading hand. "No! No!" As if there's a heavy rock on my chest, my breath starts to heave. I could feel the hollow emptiness within and the contradictory feeling of being crushed beneath.Complete![[THEN] Malay Natin: Siguro Ngayon](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/326804090-256-k415358.jpg)
[THEN] Malay Natin: Siguro Ngayon
There are some things that aren't worth keeping. Nastia Kahlila Quijano has been convincing herself that walking away was the right thing she did. Even if it's already been three long years ever since she left. But with every passing second and every in-between of those years, she couldn't seem to getaway with the feelings still lingering in her system. She was haunted by the ideas of him, what might have been, and their memories together. Each day, each night; it was a choice she didn't want to regret. She was determined to move forward. But the biggest relapse struck her unexpectedly. All of her effort and hard work went down the drain. She couldn't seem to pull herself back from the memories reeling her in. From the phantom lurking in the form of her next door neighbor seemingly pulling her back to his arms. Maybe she should run away. Far enough where they wouldn't meet ever again. Far from his reach. Maybe she should treat him indifferently until he finally gives up. But Nika couldn't seem to handle the thought of him walking away and ending up with someone else. She couldn't have that either. Maybe, it was time for her to let things happen like clockwork. Maybe fighting it was futile. Maybe the right thing to do was run back to him. In his arms wide open. A place in the world that's only meant for her. Maybe, this time, they were meant to be. Book cover by: goldenaraw (on twitter)Complete
