[The Wattys 2025 Shortlist]
Have you ever felt like time is slipping away?
Meet Vanesha Laura Del Castillo, a 24-year-old woman who's always believed that everything happens for a reason and at the right time. She's the type who thinks love shouldn't be forced-it's something that comes naturally, a gift that arrives when it's meant to be. After all, she learned that the hard way when someone wasted 8 years of her life.
But what happens when she meets the person she's always dreamed of, only to let him go, thinking that there's someone "better" out there?
Will she regret her decision, or will she trust that the right path will unfold, kahit na kailangan niyang maghintay pa ng mas matagal?

Taming the Waves (College Series #2)
PUBLISHED UNDER LIB Note: If you're not into flawed characters who make wrong decisions, don't read this. Save yourself from stress. Started: 10/07/2020 Ended: 11/18/2020 Elora Chin Valencia grew up in a toxic Christian family where she was viewed as the black sheep. Araw-araw ay ipinaparamdam sa kanya ng mundo na wala siyang lugar sa sarili niyang tahanan. She was a consistent dean's lister and an obedient daughter, which left her wondering what she had done so wrong to be disregarded as a speck of dust in the wind. They made her feel like she was just dirt, filling up the empty space. The one who would never have her own safe place. Feeling all of this contributed to her endless suicidal ideations. Baka nga tama sila. Baka nga wala siyang halaga at kailanman ay hindi na sasaya. She almost believed that. She almost held onto that notion. Not until she met the man in his BS Civil Engineering uniform and gorgeous grin, Troy Jefferson Dela Paz. He kissed her forehead, and her loud thoughts were silenced. Her demons calmed down. Her foes were defeated. For the first time in her life, she had proven her family wrong---a happy Elora Chin was possible. She was loved and well-taken care of. Troy embraced her sharp parts, not minding the wounds he might get. But fate had a lot of cruel things in store for her. Because when she thought she had reached the peak of happiness, she found myself drowning alone in the ocean she now called home, alone in her shame, alone with the waves she couldn't tame.Complete
The Longest Eight Minutes Of My Life
"The Longest 8 Minutes of My Life" Sa isang campus kung saan bawat ngiti ay may tinatagong lungkot, dalawang kaluluwang halos mabuwag ng sariling bigat ng mundo ang nagtagpo - hindi sa gitna ng saya, kundi sa pagitan ng tahimik na mga sulyap at mabibigat na buntong-hininga. Elara Mendez, a soft-spoken soul hiding invisible bruises, and Cassiel Reyes, the golden boy everyone admires but never truly knows - confident, composed, yet secretly drowning under the pressure of being enough. One night, in a world too noisy to notice broken things, they found each other. Not through grand confessions, not through promises- but through presence. A friend once said: "Every human being needs at least 8 minutes of another friends presence to make someone feel a little less alone in your darkest moments." In late-night conversations, silent glances across crowded rooms, whispered laughter under fading streetlights - eight minutes turned into hours. Hours turned into memories. Memories turned into a bond neither dared to name. But some moments are borrowed. Some battles are fought in silence. And some promises, no matter how deeply meant, are broken not by choice - but by life itself. This is a story about survival. About being seen when you least expect it. About the kind of love that doesn't promise forever, but promises to stay - even when the world falls apart. In a world that moves too fast, will eight minutes be enough?
