She thought he was her forever.
He treated her like a maybe.
Mira Dela Crush spent years falling for the wrong guy-the heartbreak, the thrill, the chaos all wrapped in Zeke's dangerous charm. He was everything she thought love was supposed to be: exciting, unpredictable, and painful in all the wrong ways.
But while she was busy getting hurt, someone else was quietly holding her together.
Jiro Velasques was never the loud choice. He was the safe space, the silent constant, the one who never stopped showing up-even when she didn't.
When the truth finally hits Mira like a plot twist she never saw coming, she has to face the question she's been avoiding all along:
What if the person you've been waiting for... was never him?
"When It Was Never You" is a slow-burn love triangle about letting go of the wrong love, recognizing the right one, and finally choosing the person who never made you beg to be chosen.

Shy Eyes & Rose Skies
Rose has always believed in love-the kind that sweeps you off your feet, the kind worth waiting for. But after years of holding onto Ezra, the boy who gave her just enough attention to keep her hoping but never enough to take the next step, she's starting to wonder if maybe she's been chasing a dream that doesn't exist. Enter Mateo-the new guy in school from Oregon. Quiet, reserved, and with shy eyes that say more than his words ever could. He only has one friend, keeps to himself, and blends into the background... until Rose walks into his world. Mateo falls first, and he falls hard. Every smile she gives, every laugh he overhears, only pulls him deeper. But Rose is still tangled in the almost-love with Ezra, too blinded to see what's right in front of her. Slowly, though, she begins to notice-the way Mateo listens, the way he shows up without asking for anything in return, the way his silence feels steadier than Ezra's loudest promises. And when she finally lets go of the boy who never chose her, she realizes she's falling-this time into something real, something lasting. A hopeless romantic story about timing, letting go, and discovering that the quietest love can sometimes be the loudest.Complete

Wounded Heart ✔
She loved him with devotion so fierce it scorched every heartbeat, every glance. He was her obsession, her reason to breathe, and her undoing. But while her world revolved around him, he remained distant-a presence, never hers. "How do you let go of someone who is the air in your lungs and the ache in your heart?" "He is my breath, and I will forget him when I forget to breathe." Memories burned bright and untouchable-hers alone. She clung to each haunted fragment, every echo of forbidden love. Until fate, honouring a promise to Aashi, forced her into the arms of the man whose heart was a graveyard. "I married you to fulfil her last wish. You will never belong here." His words cut deep-cold, calculated, meant to wound. Cruelty hid his storm. Her silence was her weapon, her pain a fortress. "You think you know pain?" she spat, her eyes blazing. "I live it every day." He turned away, fists clenched. "You don't belong. This will never be your home." Yet, in their grief and fury, sparks flew, igniting something dangerous. "Love and hate are two sides of the same burning coin." When apologies come too late, and regret drowns truth, love risks turning to ash. She walks away, her heart in ruins. He falls, shattered-vowing to bleed, to burn, to reignite the fire in her eyes. "Some hearts are forged in fire. Some burn to ashes." Even if it destroys him. 📅 Start Date: 28th October 2019 ⏳ End Date: 23rd October 2020 ✏️ Edited Date: 2026Complete
Where Love Meets The Quite War
Caia Dela Vega wasn't supposed to fall in love this year-especially not with the sharp-eyed scholarship girl who avoids people like the plague. Transferring to a quiet school far from the spotlight of her high-profile family, Caia planned to finish her senior year quietly, privately, and without complication. But then there's Rain Delara. Blunt. Brilliant. Closed off like a storm about to break. What starts as friction becomes a spark. A shared club. A slow unraveling of walls. A war of glances, late-night texts, and moments that almost mean everything-until they do. As exams approach and futures press in, Caia and Rain are pulled between what they want and who the world expects them to be. Because falling in love is one thing. Staying in love-when the real world starts knocking-is another. This is a story of longing, quiet rebellion, and loving someone enough to lose them. Because sometimes, the softest wars are the ones inside us-and the loudest loves are the ones we never planned.Complete
Torpe Goals: Level Up Love na 'To!
Jio Manrique is your average HUMSS guy - sporty, may abs (pero hindi halata sa lakas kumain), chill, tahimik, at certified torpe. Mobile games, anime, at food trip ang comfort zone niya.

Jio's heart races every time she passes by. Raisa barely knows he exists. Pero paano kung ang torpeng gaya ni Jio ay matutong lumaban hindi lang para mapansin - kundi para i-level up ang sarili niya? At paano kung ang isang katulad ni Raisa ay matutong huminto, makinig... at mahalin nang hindi kailangang kontrolin ang lahat? In a story full of awkward glances, first crushes, quiet heartbreaks, and second chances - Torpe Goals: Level Up Love na 'To! is a slow-burn coming-of-age tale about learning to grow apart before learning how to grow together. Love isn't always loud. Sometimes, it starts with a simple "Hi" from the guy who always sits at the back.Complete
Somewhere Between Your Heart And Mine
He was the golden boy of the field - the one everyone knew, the one everyone talked about. She was the girl who kept to herself. He had noise around him all the time: friends, teammates, cheers, the rush of the game. She had quiet mornings, strict rules, and a world that didn't stretch very far past home and school. They weren't supposed to cross paths. But one clumsy moment did more than make them meet - it made them notice each other. He didn't expect the quiet girl to get stuck in his head. She didn't expect the golden boy to look at her like she mattered. This isn't a story about perfect people. It's about two people learning each other slowly, awkwardly, and honestly - and finding something real in a place neither of them thought to look.
