Title: My Inheritance Had a Portal in the Closet
Pen Name: The Taxi Driver
Description:
When Sixto "Pepito" Espiritu inherits his Lola's tiny home in the province, he expects dust, memories, and maybe a few family secrets. What he doesn't expect is to find a glowing portal inside her ancient aparador.
Pulled into a world that seems to have sprung straight out of Lola's bedtime stories, Pepito must juggle ancient magic, mischievous fairies, and a sassy talking lizard-while also figuring out how to pay his electricity bill back home.
With nothing but Lola's cryptic letters and a heart full of doubt, Pepito steps into a journey that might just reveal the truth about his family's past... and change the fate of two worlds.
A heartwarming, magical adventure full of Filipino folklore, stubborn hope, and found family.

Bukod pa doon nais nilang malaman ang puno't dulo kung bakit pinaslang ng mga taga doon si Padre Simon. Ano nga ba ang dahilan? Natatakot man si Juanito ay ipinagpatuloy niya pa rin ang pagsama sa misyon. Dahil ayaw niyang mapahiya kay Padre Pablo sa pangako niyang mas paiigtingin pa niya ang pananampalataya niya sa Diyos. Ngunit sa kanilang paglalakbay ay mag-isa nang umuwi si Juanito sa Simbahan at ipinagbigay alam niya ang ibang impormasyong nalaman nila. Masama ang kutob ng simbahan kaya't nagpadala muli sila ng pari at sundalo sa bayan na iyon kasama si Juanito kahit hindi pinahintulutang sumama. Ang lugar na iyon ay itinatago din ng gobyerno at walang malinaw na dahilan. Ang alam lang nilang lahat ay may hindi magandang nangyayari doon.
