Faye, is an iskolar ng bayan from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, is on the verge of losing the one thing she fought for the first time--her life in Manila, away from a home where every move is dictated by her family. That is her chaos.

Kreil, a communication student at the University of Santo Tomas, has everything--privilege and a secured future already carved into his palm. However, even having almost everything, he wants nothing. That is his chaos.

Their worlds first collided when Kreil made a bold move and suddenly decided to pretend to be couple with Faye to claim a couple's bracelet they both wanted for its design, despite being complete strangers. What should have been a one-time interaction becomes the thread that pulls their life closer to each other, until Kreil makes her an offer in exchange for his protection from the family she's desperate to escape, she has to live with him and be his personal cook.

Is this a summer-like run away or another chaos that would only lead them deeper into the storm?

In a fast-paced city, will they be able to find calmness amid the chaos on every road in Manila?

The Faded Vows by lynk992925

He was waiting outside the OP, there for his student who had been injured during a fight over a phone. As he sat, casually glancing at his own phone, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a baby crying. Curious, he turned toward the sound-and froze. There, outside the pediatric care unit, sat his wife with their son crying in her arms. His heart ached-it had been months since he last saw his son. His gaze shifted to his wife, gently consoling the child. Her face looked tired, pale, and completely drained. Without a second thought, he stood, tears welling in his eyes. Each step he took felt heavy, his chest tightening with every cry from his son. As he neared, he saw her clothes were faded and worn. Her feet were bare, hardened from walking-clearly straight from the farm. His heart clenched. His eyes moved to his son-he had grown so much. She was so focused on calming the baby that she didn't notice him at first. Tears filled her eyes as she held their feverish child close. He softly called her name. Startled, she looked up-and froze. Then she quickly lowered her gaze and tried to get up. He gently placed a hand on her shoulder, stopping her. She sat back down, turning her face away, quietly wiping her tears. He reached out to take their son. The moment he held him, he felt the heat-his little body was burning with fever. A chill ran through him. After all these months, seeing his child like this was unbearable. He loved his wife and son deeply, but his loyalty to his mother-and obedience to her word-always came first. Between a mother who owned his soul and a wife who held his heart, he was a man torn in a cruel war of love and loyalty. And she-she had given her all to a promise whispered beneath the sacred fire... never knowing that one day, she'd be holding her child, with nothing but a faded vow.

Sabrinna Antonette Yu used to have it all. Pretty, accomplished, on top of her academic game as a BS Pharmacy student at a prestigious university in Iloilo City. Tinitingala, iniidolo, hinahangaan. Noong nagpaulan siguro ng magagandang katangian, naroon s'ya sa VIP seat kaya't nakuha lahat. Sino ba ang mag-aakala na pagtungtong n'ya ng third year ay iikot pabaliktad ang entabladong kinatatayuan n'ya? Pressure and stress weighed down her shoulders, crumbling down the confidence she built so hard since her freshman years. Totoo nga pala talaga ang academic burn out. Her scores started performing poorly, her practicals turned mediocre until she started failing. Lahat ng pinaghirapan n'yang makuha ay unti-unting kumawala sa kan'yang sariling mga kamay. Ang masakit pa ay wala s'yang magawa kundi manood na lang. That's where her parents encouraged her to take a year-long break from studies and rest. She's so lucky to have such understanding guardians who got her back through ups and downs. And even more lucky that the academic gap became a way, somehow, for her to visit her uncle's private island, The Oasis. The best part is, she can stay for as long as she wants! She can rest, enjoy, play around, and solo one of the most pristine beaches of Sipalay City! Well, until she couldn't. Because this certain island boy named Miguel keeps meddling with her peace like a lost pup. Guwapo naman ito. Matangkad, moreno, may tindig at sobrang bait. Pero ano bang mapapala n'ya d'yan? Nasa isla s'ya para magpahinga. Makakapag pahinga nga ba?

ARVITH RAWALVANSHI is the King of Ranwada, the eldest son of a powerful royal family. Ranwada is a land rich in culture, wealth and everything that makes a kingdom strong. Arvith is cold-hearted by nature but a brilliant ruler. People say he doesn't even have a heart. They believe whoever marries him will be the unluckiest girl alive because he is known as a devil. He has no interest in love or marriage. But what happens when his family arranges his marriage to a girl who has nothing... and no one even knows she exists? Will he accept her or push her away? YASHIKA TRIPATHI is a girl who lives inside four walls not because anyone forces her but because she chooses silence. She speaks only when needed and sometimes not at all. She has no one to share her pain with. She wasn't always like this. Something in her past changed her completely. She doesn't know her purpose in life-until the day her family fixes her marriage with the King of Ranwada, Arvith Rawalvanshi. To Yashika, this feels like the end. How can she survive with a man known as a devil? Will she get the love she always craves? Will he ever accept her? And what turned her into this quiet, broken girl? Step into a world of power, silence and longing-where destiny writes its own story.
