Complete, First published Mar 18, 2023
Unfavored by harsh fate, Hyena Aji Artiaga paves through her world with no one to depend on.

Her parents left . . . only for her to become one. She was ushered to a weighted responsibility. A hefty load enforced to carry all by herself. It was a total twist in the wind, a helpless grope in the pitch black void, a dry smile on a desert. Every breath was desperate effort, as if living is like lying on her own death bed.

Whilst, in a night where the darkness dominates, there'll always be the glowing moonrays. The one that radiates things around. The one that shines to pathways. The one that helps night vision.

It was the hand she didn't know would give her a grip. The bulb she didn't expect to light her night up. To help her get up, lift the loads, and alleviate her every breath.

She thought she had it. That she finally had claimed it. But then, life often really proves: wherever there light is, shadow also there is.

Because just like the moon phasing, Cole Kashiro Ferrari was also the thing she'd never expected to bring shadows over her nightlights again.

The Longest Eight Minutes Of My Life by Itsmetheunwantedkid2
12 parts Ongoing
"The Longest 8 Minutes of My Life" Sa isang campus kung saan bawat ngiti ay may tinatagong lungkot, dalawang kaluluwang halos mabuwag ng sariling bigat ng mundo ang nagtagpo - hindi sa gitna ng saya, kundi sa pagitan ng tahimik na mga sulyap at mabibigat na buntong-hininga. Elara Mendez, a soft-spoken soul hiding invisible bruises, and Cassiel Reyes, the golden boy everyone admires but never truly knows - confident, composed, yet secretly drowning under the pressure of being enough. One night, in a world too noisy to notice broken things, they found each other. Not through grand confessions, not through promises- but through presence. A friend once said: "Every human being needs at least 8 minutes of another friends presence to make someone feel a little less alone in your darkest moments." In late-night conversations, silent glances across crowded rooms, whispered laughter under fading streetlights - eight minutes turned into hours. Hours turned into memories. Memories turned into a bond neither dared to name. But some moments are borrowed. Some battles are fought in silence. And some promises, no matter how deeply meant, are broken not by choice - but by life itself. This is a story about survival. About being seen when you least expect it. About the kind of love that doesn't promise forever, but promises to stay - even when the world falls apart. In a world that moves too fast, will eight minutes be enough?

When the weight of expectations and unspoken wounds finally catch up to Astrielle, she faces a terrifying truth-what if she's been shining for everyone else but herself?
