For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.Concluida
The Invisible Arrow
Lia isn't your typical nerd whose world spins only around grades and accolades. Sure, she graduated as class valedictorian while leading the student council-but she also makes time for pilates, late-night hangouts, and real friendships. Then there's Atien-charming, effortlessly sociable, and co-owner of the local gym. Their friendship grew without pressure, without pretense: just study dates, workouts, shared routines... until somewhere along the way, they fell-hard. Did they mean to fall in love? Not at all. But were they struck by an invisible arrow buried too deep to pull out? Absolutely.Concluida
The Aimless Archer
Rishi never meant to fall in love-not with him, anyway. All she wanted was a taste of freedom. Moritz wasn't aiming either. Bratty, stubborn, always ready to argue-she was a walking headache he was asked to look after. Their banter became friendship. Their friendship became something they couldn't name. Until everything fell apart. She had secrets. He felt betrayed. And when it ended, they became polite, distant strangers who once almost had something real. But love, as they've learned, doesn't care for pride, timing, or unspoken truths. And sometimes, the arrow that missed the first time still knows exactly where to land.Concluida

I wished for a Boyfriend not a Girlfriend (GxG, Lesbian) °editing°
I was awakened by a buzz, but I don't want to get up, instead I lay still on my bed and about to dream again when I heard a THUD, I flinched at the sound. It's Saturday so I'm not expecting anyone at this early in the morning. I'm not a morning person, I am now annoyed to whoever it is. "Coming!" I yelled and started walking which took me sometime because I literally took my time, don't blame me I'm still sleepy, I opened the door to see a very beautiful woman, she has long wavy hair, thick eyelashes and pink pout lips and lastly... a body to die for. I frowned when I realized a high-school student? I can say because she's wearing a uniform. What is a beautiful high-school girl doing here knocking at my door? I asked mentally. I was about to ask her when she suddenly slipped inside my condo and sit on the couch cozily, I crossed my arms and face her still frowning. "Miss what are you doing here? What do you need?" I asked her curiously. She looked at me and smiled, a smile that can make men drool, but I'm not because I'm still annoyed. "I am your girlfriend" she said sweetly, my eyes widened in shock, I know I'm drunk last night but I don't remember having a girlfriend. I was about to say something when she stood up and face me leaning so much closer that were inches apart. "You wished for me, last night on the internet" oh crap! Now I remember! I was browsing the net when a certain ad captures my attention. "But I wished for a BOYFRIEND! Not a Girlfriend!!?" How do you handle a situation where there's NO REFUND and NO EXCHANGE?
