In a world where hope flickers like a distant star, a young boy clings to the remnants of a feeling he once held dear. This fleeting grasp of hope, now dissolved into nothingness, sets him on a journey to mend everything that has fallen apart. Driven by a desperate wish to fix his fractured world, he embarks on a perilous quest.
However, as he delves deeper into his journey, the boy realizes a devastating truth: the most precious thing he once had is forever lost because of the very wish he made. This wish, intended to bring resolution, has instead unravelled his life, leaving him with a profound sense of regret.
As he navigates through trials and tribulations, the path to redemption remains uncertain. The boy's journey is a poignant exploration of loss, regret, and the arduous search for self-recovery. In the end, we are left to wonder: will he ever reclaim the hope that once illuminated his heart, or will he remain adrift in a sea of his own making?

The Sound Of Your Voice
Dylan Bautista, the 25-year-old boy next door turned world-famous singer, musician, and painter, seemed to have everything-fame, fortune, and the kind of smile that made the world believe he was untouchable. But beneath the stage lights and painted canvases, his world begins to dim when he's diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder known as Usher Syndrome. The news comes crashing down the same night a devastating car accident steals his coordination and balance, trapping his once-brilliant hands in trembling silence. The trauma speeds up the cruel progress of his illness, blurring his hearing, fading his vision, and locking him inside a body that no longer dances to his music. Even the wealth and devotion of his adoptive parents can't buy back the rhythm of his steps or the clarity of his art. As months fade into endless therapy sessions, Dylan's reflection becomes a ghost of who he once was. When tragedy strikes again and his parents die suddenly, the last piece of his world finally shatters. In the silence left behind, enters Lea, the quiet, patient nurse hired by his late parents' trusted secretary to guide him through his brokenness. With each day she tends to him, Lea begins to see the man beneath the fame-the boy who still dreams of color and melody in a world going dark. Her care becomes more than duty; it becomes a lifeline pulling him toward hope, piece by fragile piece. But can she truly heal a man whose world is fading both in sound and sight? Or will Dylan's descent into silence swallow every song and stroke he has left to give? Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real people or events is purely coincidental - but if it feels real, that's because the heart remembers what the mind forgets. If they remind you of someone or something real, maybe it's because pain and hope speak a language we all understand. Still, if you see pieces of your own story here, take it as a reminder - even in fiction, healing is possible.

Falling Star , Falling For You
In a sleepy seaside town, Dew lives a simple, grounded life. Strong-willed, confident, and quietly protective, he spends his nights sketching the stars he's always been strangely drawn to. One night, the sky splits open with a brilliant flash. A star falls - not far, not distant - but right behind Dew's home.

He is a celestial star who shattered the cosmic boundary and crashed to earth, losing most of his light.

He clings to Dew not just for safety, but because Dew's presence makes his fading star-heart glow again. But the longer Tee stays on Earth, the dimmer his light becomes. The Heavens demand he return, or vanish forever. Dew, who has never believed in fate, now has to fight against it. Tee, who was born only to shine alone, discovers he wants to stay by Dew's side - even if it burns him out completely. Will Dew find a way to keep Tee alive in his world?
