Loving You Was Blue

We often hear stories about successful love confessions. The two are in love with each other, and then, a happy ending. But how about those not-so-successful confessions, where rejection isn't even the answer? This is not your typical love story. A boys' love story.

Thaddeus Jahann Lañega always wanted to be loved, particularly by his family. No matter how hard he tried to excel in academics, his sister still had the love, attention, and support from his parents. When his friend introduced him to Jahreid Elizar Teniego- a transferee student from the Humanities and Social Sciences strand-he became friends with him. As they became friends, he came to know Jahreid's sad life and slowly fell in love with the transferee whom he hadn't noticed before. When he already had the courage to confess, it didn't go well, but he wasn't rejected either.

Red sometimes indicates love when it is full of passion. But for Thaddeus Jahann Lañega, loving Jahreid Elizar Teniego felt strangely blue.
