"Not being enough" - it's one of the most damaging beliefs a person can carry. It's a cruel echo, hard to forget, impossible to ignore, and even harder to erase from your mind. It's the weight you bear, the pain you endure, all in the desperate hope of hearing that you're finally enough. But no matter what you do, they still make you feel like you're not.
Liana Florin Perez was once a girl filled with hope, driven by dreams, ignited by passion, and determined to pursue the future she envisioned, even without the support of her parent. She stood tall, fueled by courage and a quiet belief in herself. But behind the brave face and her carefully built dreams, the walls she once thought were strong are beginning to crack... and the ground beneath her is starting to crumble.
She thought no one could hear her silent pleas, no one could save her from the weight she carried. But fate had its own plans. Caelum Haru Rivera wasn't searching for her, yet somehow, he found her-and nothing was ever the same.

Loving the Sky (College Series #3)

Started: 11/20/2020 Ended: 01/29/2021 How far would you go for someone? How many hailstorms and dark clouds would you endure? How many falling stars would you wait for to make a single wish come true? For Reese Deborah Madrid, the sky was the limit. She was used to having whatever she wanted. Clothes? Shoes? Jewelry? Name it. She could get it without putting in so much effort. So, when she hoped for another shot of love with her ex-boyfriend, she was ready to sacrifice everything to win him back. Even if that meant she had to look stupid and desperate. Even that meant she had to suffer through the pain of watching him be disgusted by her. Even if that meant she had to deal with his harsh words and apathy. She did everything in her power to go back into his arms. She stood up to the rain that soaked her and the sun that burned her skin. She waited from daybreak to nightfall, hoping that he would eventually fall back in love with her. She thought she was getting there. She felt like she'd made it. But then, in the world where she could be anything, she lost everything in the name of her love for him. Because much like the sky, Harvin Rouge Foster was only meant to be loved from afar.Concluída

And then there was Timotheo Melo Marquez, the intellectual second year Psychology department representative, who made Cara realize that there is so much more to life than just dreaming- because there is love. And in love, there is more to it than just two hearts beating... but a collaboration between two brains learning how to love. Started: April 05, 2025 Ended:
Stop The Endless Chase
"Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up." - James A. Baldwin This is the hardest and toughest decision that I have ever made in my entire life. I thought at first that it was leaving him two years ago but I thought wrong. Kasi kung iisipin, noon aalis ako pero alam kong may babalikan pa ako. Pero ngayon, aalis ako at kahit na ilang beses pa akong bumalik ay wala na akong babalikan. Whatever decisions that I'll be doing, I know that I won't regret anything. This is where I'm going to end everything. This is where I'm going to stop chasing. This painful reality is going to be my lesson to accept the fact that not all things will remain until the end. Right now, all I need to do is to stop the endless chase just like what he wanted me to do.Concluída

The New Mafia Boss (Under Revisions)
"The past always finds a way to catch up." The rain hammered the streets, but she barely noticed. She was too focused on the weight in her chest-the weight of everything she was trying to escape. She'd left the past behind. At least, that's what she'd convinced herself. When she walked into the room, the tension hit her immediately. The cold stares from everyone around the table made her skin crawl, but it was the figure at the head of the table that stopped her in her tracks. Him. Her ex. The man who had torn her world apart, the one she'd tried so hard to forget. But there he was, sitting casually with an air of power, as if nothing had ever changed. Her heart skipped a beat. She wasn't ready for this. Not now, not here. He looked up, his eyes locking onto hers. There was a flicker of recognition, something almost soft, but it vanished just as quickly. She couldn't breathe. The past had found her. "Didn't expect you to show up," he said, his voice as cold as ever. And just like that, everything she thought she had left behind came rushing back.Concluída
