Have you ever fallen in love just because of a simple smile from a stranger?
A stranger's smile that makes your world stop spinning for a moment.
A voice so angelic that it pauses time itself.
A presence that makes your heart race every time you see him.
And in just a few seconds, you realize-you've already fallen for him.
Well, that's exactly what happened to me. I fell for a stranger.
I never even bothered to know his name, nickname, address, favorites, hobbies, or anything about his life.
To me, he was just another passenger in a jeepney-nothing more, nothing less.
But there was one thing that made me want to know him more-
My feelings for him.
Feelings I couldn't deny.
Feelings I couldn't control.
Feelings I wanted to shout out loud in front of him.
Feelings that screamed how much I love him.
But how? Every time I gather the courage to confess, fear and anxiety take over.
I'm afraid of rejection.
Afraid that he won't feel the same way.
Afraid to find out that he already loves someone else.
And because of that fear, I end up frozen-just staring at his back as he walks away.
When will I have the courage to tell him I love him?
When will he notice that my heart only beats for him?
And why is he so oblivious-so unaware of how much he means to me?
(_)
And this madness all started the moment...

The Morning Star. "Ok, listen. I get it." "What?" Kahit nakangiti, matiim ang tingin ni TJ. "I get it. I get that you're not the kind of person who jumps head first into the water. And I get that maybe, you want to take this slow. But I can't slow down, Kate. I'm drowning. All these feelings that I have for you, they're just too much. So I'm just letting them wash over me. And I'm not saying that you should do the same. For now, I just need you to feel what we have here. There is something here. Something na hindi ma-explain." "Don't deny it." Anito nang makitang nagsimula syang umiling. "You know you can't even if you want to. Something beautiful has happened. And I won't waste my time figuring out the whats and the whys of it. Ang alam ko lang, I'm overjoyed that I met you last night. Last night." Marahang tumawa ang binata. Umiiling-iling. Pinisil nito ang mga palad nya. "God! It seems ages ago to me. But I've never been this happy since as long as I can remember. I'm happy everytime nakikita kita. Na naririnig ko ang boses mo. Na andyan ka lang sa tabi ko at abot-kamay ko. Na you let me touch you this close." Isinuklay nito ang mga kamay sa buhok nya. Wari ay gustong patunayan ang sinabi. Nang nagpa-ubaya sya ay may kumislap sa mga mata ng binata. *-* *-* *-* R-18 Certain chapters contain mature and explicit scenes. Reader discretion is advised. Cover photo is not mine.

Heal me
Since childhood, I can't feel the love of my parents. Ni hindi nila kayang ngumiti para sa akin. They've known me as an outsider. I'm a woman, and it's considered a curse to our family. ......... I have the darkest, and most shattering past so I live my life shattering and breaking anyone who blocks my way. I'm no longer the boy who cowers and who whimpers to beg. I don't give mercy. I'm hard as stone but...... I HAVE ONE WEAKNESS that no one should ever find out. ........ Both bruised. They wished that things were better. Unfortunately... it's not. ........ When fate decides, can they heal each other? Can they accept and mend those broken parts? Can they learn to love when they've NEVER known what it means for they've NEVER felt it? ........ A|N: I did not proofread to make revisions of this story po so you'll see lapses in grammar, spelling, punctuation and etc. In addition, ito ang una pong gawa ko. Expect that it's very amateurish. I plan to edit it soon. Thank you po for reading!Complete

Pero kaya mo pa rin ba siyang saluhin kahit na alam mong planado niya lang ang lahat? Or kaya ka ba niyang saluhin kahit alam niyang planado mo din ang lahat?Complete

"Mahal kong Sunget."
Loving is not about how long. how quick. how strong. how weak. Loving is about HOW. how your story began and how it'll end. what if you fell for someone who always makes you cry? what if you fell for a boy who never valued you? will you still love him? Pa'no kung feeling mo lang pala yun? You just chose to write what you feel. Would you dare write letters for him in a notebook and start it by saying --- "Mahal kong Sunget"?

His Obsessive tactics: Not Anymore (COMPLETED✓)
FOR CLARITY: THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH HYPNOSIS, THAT IS WHY OUR LEAD CHARACTER HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING BEING CONTROLLED AND MANIPULATED. "G-greg, listen to me. You can still fix this, you can still be healed." I said while I touched his face, I was caressing his right cheek with my thumb. But, to my surprise, he went down from the bed and turned his back away from me and asked "Do you love me?" He said with a monotone voice, the quick transition scared me, from being hopeful to being dominant. I was shocked from his question, tila napipi ako at hindi alam kung ano ang isasagot sa katanungang iyon. "I said, Do.You.Love.Me" he said it again for the second time, though he was facing at the window, you can tell that he's furious because hes gritting his teeth. "Ha! Got it! You dont love me!!! You are giving me hope, for you to escape me right?! I wont fall for that my beloved Veronica. Im not fucked in the head, I know your weakness, I know your softest spot and I know how I can lure you. You will stay here with me, forever. No one's gonna meddle our love story. Even God, I say you start learning to love me back, coz theres no way Im letting you slip, ever again." He stood up at hinawakan niya ng marahas yung panga ko gamit ang kanyang kaliwang kamay, napakasakit, parang dinudurog ang aking buto, I held his hand na naka hawak sa aking panga and I was trying to pull it out, my tears were non-stop. "Your body, your mind and soul are mine. I own you and no one else." He pinched my earlobe and sucked my neck, he then let go. Suddenly, warmth and pleasure enveloped my body, I wanted to be touched, I wanted to release this warmth away from my body, these are my demons. He knew my vulnerable spot. ----------------------------------------------- WARNING: Read at your own risk, this story contains, explicit scenes and vulgar words that are not suitable for young audiences.

RUTHLESS MAN OBSESSION ( COMPLETED )
My breathe stop when I saw a dangerous but gorgeous man stepped into my view. He's walking with grace and there's an authority aura around him. Parang hawak niya ako sa leeg at nakasalalay ang buhay ko sa kanya. Hindi ako makapaniwala na ang mukhang ito na dati ay ang mukha na palagi kung hinahanap at gustong makita araw araw , ay ngayo'y ang mukhang magdadala sa akin ng matinding takot at pagkamuhi. Paano niya ito nagawa sa akin, sa amin. Akala ko pa naman ay maaasahan siya at tanggap niya kami. Pero heto siya ngayon dinadala ako sa kanyang imperno. Chills are running into my spine that makes my whole body feels cold. I snapped out of my thoughts ng bigla siyang tumigil at ngumisi ng nakakatakot that makes me shiver. "Afraid of me huhh, don't worry ako parin ito. Ang taong baliw na baliw sayo. Siguro na man ay kaya mo na akong mahalin sa itsura kung to. At kung ayaw mo parin ay wala na akong magagawa kundi pilitin kang sumama sa akin" mahaba niyang litanya. Baliw na talaga siya kahit pa magbago ang itsura niya ay walang magbabago. Hindi siya ang mahal ko at hindi ko siya kayang mahalin. Kung pwede ko lang sanang sabihin sa kanya, pero fuck nilagyan niya ng tape ang bibig ko. Pag ako nakataka----- "Alam ko ang iniisip mo. Hinding hindi ka makakatakas sa akin. Don't worry I will sent you to my heaven " at sinabayan pa ng tawa ng demonyo. Heaven talaga, baka ibig niyang sabihin ay pugad ng mga satanas. Bigla niya akong binuhat at hindi na ako nakapalag dahil pagod na ko, pagod nako sa lahat ng pagkukunwari niya. Pero isa lang ang nasisiguro ko , I HAVE MO ESCAPE TO THIS RUTHLESS AND OBSESS MAN. 😘😘jeanobsession😘😘Complete

Gano'n ang ganap sa buhay ko. Once upon a time, I was just an average girl-well, not-so-average dahil certified independent woman tayo, mga besh.

As in, bigla na lang nawala, walang pasabi, walang closure, walang anything. Eh di syempre, bilang matinong babae, I did what any rational human being would do-nag-move on nang slight.

With a stranger. At hindi lang basta-bastang lalaki, kundi isang nakakagigil na tao na later on, malalaman kong magiging bagong boss ko. Yes. Alam kong wala akong luck sa love life, pero bakit pati sa career, pinaglalaruan ako ng tadhana? This is the story of how one mistake-one embarrassing, nakakahiya, and downright WORST moment of my life-turned into something I never expected. Welcome to my Sweetest MistakeComplete
My Billionaire Kidnapper
Matthew Simons is an entitled, possessive, incredibly rich and HOT. He would do everything to get what he wants especially the one that he loves. He saw Leila for the very first time but felt like it wasn't. He has seen every pretty woman around the world, but nobody has struck his heart like her beauty. While curiosity about this woman builds up, the more he feels like he'd known her for a long time or in his past life, that there's more deeper meaning into these electrifying feelings he's experiencing whenever Leila's close to him. Because Leila is fully committed to someone already, lalo syang nainfuriate. But because he's an asshole and impatient, for him, there's only one way to find out. CH12 "What do you want from me?" Lakas loob kong tanong ko sa kanya. "I want you to shut up and dance with me." He mumbled. His voice is so low and manly. Kasing baba ata ng boses ni thor! "Sa-sa CR why di-did you do that?" I asked, while trying to find Alvin. Palingon lingon ako sa paligid baka sakali. "Eyes on me lady or else--" His voice with authority. "Anu bang kailangan mo sa akin kilala ba kita? May nagawa ba ako sa'yo? Can you please let me go?!" Our face is too close but I still can't see his face because of his mask. "Malaki ang kailangan ko sayo and I will find out what it is." Ha???! This is confusing the shit out of me. I thought it's time to switch partner pero ayaw nya akong pakawalan!! Lahat ng mga tao ay ngswitch kami lang ang hindi! Nasan na ba ung fiancè ko! "You're not going anywhere. I'm not gonna let these boys touch you again." He smirked. Lalo nyang hinigpitan ang kamay nya sa baywang ko.Complete

# 1 nasaktan # 1 blindedbylove # 1 sporty Book 1 ***************************** He tilted his head at me then he gave me an irritated smile. I literally froze from looking at his smile. He got up from the rock then walked towards me. Hindi parin ako nakagalaw sa kinatatayuan ko. Both of us are in an opposite direction, we were 6 meters apart base sa dinadaluyan ng tubig sa falls. As he walked near me, unti unti ring natanaw ng maayos ang mukha nya. (punyeta.. Panty hold on lang) He has a tan skin, 5 ft nearing 6ft taller than me. He raised an eyebrow at me, as he look at me questioningly with his ocean deep colored eyes, i even saw his well defined jaw tightened a little bit, probably because of what i asked at him. ***************** I was His and..... Who was he again? Stratagem, those dark dreams that turned into success. Welt, a swollen heart is all i gave him to turn him into someone else worse than my very curled bangs. (Unedited: I'll re-edit those grammatical error line on the holidays. But as of now enjoy reading new schmittens.)Complete
