Scott Davidson is a college student in Manila. He is trapped in a suffocating world of abuse, judgments, betrayals, and mind manipulations. Pretending he belongs in a world that has only love matters and only finds comfort in his boyfriend's whispers of love, embraces, and assurance, but when he finds out his lover shares his touch with someone else, his world crumbles.
All the tormenting words and thoughts, unnoticed cries of help, and loneliness carved his precious heart. As the weight of the despair drags him to the decision that all of us can't even think. He begins to wonder if disappearance can make them realize his worth and they will finally be kind to one another.
We think that when a heart stops beating, it doesn't just vanish, but it leaves behind deafening silence of hope and echoes of agony, dispair, and dread. And sometimes, those echoes are louder than anyone ever expected.
A tragic experience of love, loss, and the hopeless voice of a broken soul-these are a heartbreaking reminder of the voices we fail to hear before they are gone.

Beyond those scars shows growth and beauty, while beneath them lies an imminent pain that dwells and stays as long as the heart beats. What really is love? Above all, how'd you know if it's love? Is it possessiveness? A love that you don't want to share with anyone else? Is it a commitment? Where two people stay only to be drawn by their promises? Does it need to be difficult to a point where it either breaks you or fixes you? And does it need to be exclusive to one person only? This is a story beneath the scars of lies, regrets, and broken promises. After all, the heart only seeks what love truly is. Beneath the ScarsComplete

In All the Ways That Matter
"In all the ways that matter" is a soft, slow-burning coming-of-age story told through the eyes of Lia-a quiet, artistic girl who's always found comfort behind her sketchpad and in the stillness of her thoughts. Starting her college life in Manila, Lia steps into a world that's louder, more colorful, and far more uncertain than she's used to. But among the messy group hangouts, late-night jeep rides, and campus art exhibits, Lia finds herself caught in a quiet longing-for Caleb, her older brother's best friend. A longing she's hidden for years, sketched only in glances and unspoken wishes. As the story unfolds, Lia is drawn into moments that challenge her to grow: an unexpected friendship with a classmate who sees the world differently, an art competition that forces her to confront what she truly feels, and the quiet heartbreak of realizing some things-no matter how beautiful-aren't meant to be. In a season of music festivals, lingering gazes, and slowly letting go, Lia begins to understand that growing up isn't just about finding love-it's about finding the courage to choose yourself, especially when your heart wants to do otherwise. A gentle, atmospheric story about timing, quiet bravery, and the art of loving-in all the ways that matter.
