"Everything started from nothing. In the midst of darkness where the music of silence deafens, crawls out a cryptic light. Something enchanting starts to form from an endless vision of black; a sprouting tincture and so, almost everything became a boundless beautification. ALMOST. "
"The moment I opened my eyes, all I see was perfection. I never realize that my eyes are still half close; that I'm still half asleep, and it hurts waking up; to wake up finding out that all I have seen were illusions. They were nothing but vaults to cover up the impureness of the world. But the moment I realized it,it's already too late because I was already TAINTED"

In All the Ways That Matter
"In all the ways that matter" is a soft, slow-burning coming-of-age story told through the eyes of Lia-a quiet, artistic girl who's always found comfort behind her sketchpad and in the stillness of her thoughts. Starting her college life in Manila, Lia steps into a world that's louder, more colorful, and far more uncertain than she's used to. But among the messy group hangouts, late-night jeep rides, and campus art exhibits, Lia finds herself caught in a quiet longing-for Caleb, her older brother's best friend. A longing she's hidden for years, sketched only in glances and unspoken wishes. As the story unfolds, Lia is drawn into moments that challenge her to grow: an unexpected friendship with a classmate who sees the world differently, an art competition that forces her to confront what she truly feels, and the quiet heartbreak of realizing some things-no matter how beautiful-aren't meant to be. In a season of music festivals, lingering gazes, and slowly letting go, Lia begins to understand that growing up isn't just about finding love-it's about finding the courage to choose yourself, especially when your heart wants to do otherwise. A gentle, atmospheric story about timing, quiet bravery, and the art of loving-in all the ways that matter.
The Ruthless Game
I've always been a big fan of yours. You're loved by many, owned by no one. I've always known you were meant to be admired from afar, but never to have... You are a star, I'm an average Jane. You are a prince, I am no princess... It was okay. It was never an issue. I knew what my priorities were. Love is a distraction that I didn't want. I was perfectly happy with my own run of the mill world. But then you came when I was least expecting you to. You gave me affection, unconditional love, and every thing a woman would certainly fall for... I got scared, but you assured me time and again that I had nothing to be afraid of. Said you would never let me down and that I was the last person that you'd want to see hurt. You were there when I fell. You became my world. I became yours... Ours was like a fairy tale. Perfect. We were so in love... So in love that I thought nothing could ever come between us. But then... she happened... She turned our fairy tale into a night mare. In a snap of a finger, the once perfect love became nonexistent. You felt so far even if you were just right beside me... I tried to fight for what we once had... But how can I fight for someone who wasn't there anymore? I don't know which I would rather believe... that you never did care... or that you eventually stopped. -Some Chapters contain mature content.Complete

A Wave of Vermilion (UNDER REVISION)
LOTL #1 A Wave of Vermilion Book 1 of the Lies of the Lycoris series *** My skin suddenly feels warm. Suddenly feels seen. My heart starts to race. Like my body senses that someone has been observing, watching... Gazing. The scent and sensation grow heavier with each passing second. I can sense my closeness to the source. My body has been aware of it the whole time. For the past three hours, the prickling feeling of fixated attention never left me. At first, I thought it was just coming from the guests approaching me. But now I can sense it clearer. Because I can feel it mere inches from me. From my peripheral view, a strange mystifying man wearing a wolf mask stands beside me, leaning against the same wall. #AWaveofVermilionWP #AWOV

My Promdi Sweetheart [S1: Completed]
"A beautiful face will soon rot, and a perfect body will lose its flawlessness, but a pure soul remains as it is." This saying made me realize how firm and strong our inner beauty is; it doesn't change; instead, it stays forever. Change is constant, and it was more vividly proven and tested when he surprisingly changed my whole life. My first impression of him? So out of fashion, low-key, dirty and flirtatious, who is really unqualified for my standards, but we never know when we fall, and we don't know the misjudgement we've committed. How is it possible that I fell for a person whom I hated so much? I don't know, but will I continue loving him? This is your Golden Witch. -Dein Serpent22~Complete

Taming the Wildflower (Buenvista#1)
*Not everything stated in the prologue accurately reflects the main ideas of the story.* Have you ever been so fierce, so strong, so untamed? Have you ever been so independent - always thinking, always saying you will never be weak? Have you ever felt invisible to everyone, like you're standing in a crowded room screaming silently, yet no one turns their head? You want to be seen, desperately, but it feels like they look right through you. Have you ever hated someone not for who they are, but for what they expect you to be? They admire your strength, applaud your resilience, and praise your confidence, but none of them have ever stayed long enough to witness your weakness. They only love the strong version of you, the one that doesn't cry, the one that holds everything together even when you're falling apart inside. And so, you hide it. You keep your silence and wear your strength like armor. Because if you break - who will catch you? If you let the tears fall - will they still respect you? Will they still stay when they finally see the parts of you that aren't as perfect or fearless? Sometimes, it feels like being strong has become your only identity. But what they don't know is that even the fiercest souls need rest, even the wildest hearts get tired, and even the strongest people long to be held-not because they are weak, but because they've been strong for too long. But you are not just strength. You are softness, too. You are the quiet ache behind the brave face, the sleepless nights behind the bright smile. And though you have survived countless seasons alone, deep down, there's a part of you whispering: Let someone in. Let someone see the chaos and call it beautiful. Let someone touch the thorns and still choose to stay. Maybe you're not meant to be tamed. Maybe you're meant to be understood. Because even wildflowers deserve a place to bloom freely, without having to hide their roots.Complete
