The Paradoxical Love

At first glance, Mikhanna Jen Ferrer Gimenez is the kind of young lady you might pass in a school hallway without noticing-quiet, composed, and almost invisible by design. Yet, it is nearly impossible to overlook her, as she is one of the smartest and brightest students known in the school.

Mikhanna grew up in a very strict and conservative family where she learned that her desires were irrelevant-from the clothes she wore to the people she should be with, to deciding what her future should look like. It felt as though every decision was already made for her, and all she had to do was follow.

Her future was important to her. There were things she wanted to achieve, but those dreams were at odds with her family's expectations. Dito, unti-unti niyang natutuhan ang lumaban sa kanyang gusto, sundin ang kanyang gusto, at abutin ang kanyang ninanais ayon sa kanyang pangarap.

But she discovered something powerful-love. She hadn't know she is capable of love like she hadn't know she is capable of deciding and fighting for what she wants.

Ngunit kayang-kaya niya rin bang ipaglaban ito? O kaya niya bang labanan ang pag-ibig na 'to? Or will it be a paradoxical love?
