Story Description:
Some love stories don't end with a kiss.
Some end in silence.
Five years ago, Aira and Rafael were everything the world said they shouldn't be-young, reckless, passionate, and impossibly drawn to each other. She was a pianist chasing her dreams; he was an architect building his walls. They fell in love in a seaside town where music met design, where moments felt eternal and time stood still. But ambition, distance, and unspoken wounds drove them apart-without closure, without a proper goodbye.
Now, Aira returns to Manila for the opportunity of a lifetime. Rafael is here too-engaged, successful, and still haunted by the girl who once played music like it was meant just for him. When fate places them back in the same city, memories begin to resurface. Words never said. Letters never answered. Love never unlearned.
But time has changed them. Scars have formed. Choices have been made. And while the love between them still lingers like a song unfinished, they both know the truth:
Sometimes love is real.
Sometimes it's strong.
But sometimes... it simply isn't enough.
When Love Isn't Enough is a bittersweet story of reconnection, missed chances, and the quiet kind of heartbreak that doesn't scream-it simply stays. A story for anyone who's ever had to let go of someone they still loved.

The Safety Pin Affair
Victoria Harris is a bull. Not literally, of course. But she's pretty true to what her zodiac sign says about her. She's stubborn as hell, sarcastic and witty, and is perfectly fine with being on her own. Using guys as a way to pass the time and avoiding romance at all costs is how she functions. She doesn't date and she's determined to keep it that way. But isn't there always one boy that thinks he can change the stubborn girl? This is not a story of love. This is a story of broken boy meets broken girl, as they try to safety pin the pieces of their broken hearts back together. Maybe this time, two wrongs can make it right.Terminé
Hazy (wlw)
"What if Oliver's not your type either?" She was supposed to love Oliver. Falling for Anna was never part of the plan. And if Violet finds out, Emma could lose everything. Emma Sinclair has one plan for senior year: graduate and leave. Leave the fighting at home. Leave the tension with Oliver, the boy she's supposed to love but doesn't. Leave the cousin who might never accept the truth about who she really is. But then there's Anna. Anna is everything Emma didn't expect-guarded, intense, impossible to read-and somehow the only person who makes her feel safe. The closer graduation gets, the harder it becomes to pretend nothing is changing. Because falling for Anna might cost her the people she loves most. Now Emma has to decide if finally being honest is worth the risk. Because loving Anna might be the one mistake Emma can't take back. TW: strong language, abusive parents, depressionTerminé
Breathe Again
Madi is a 27 year old widow. When a tragic accident leaves her grief-stricken, she sets off to travel the world and heal. Will the mysterious Writer that comes into her life by chance be able to show her that it's her circumstances that makes her who she is? Who he falls in love with? Or is it just her story he falls in love with? Now she must decide if she can love again, or if tragedy will define her. "I can hear you thinking, what's on your mind?" Rob asked looking down at her with a sweet smile "Nothing, just how long it's been since I've had such a good time with someone else. I don't want it to end as cheesy as that sounds." Madi told him. "It doesn't have to be the end, you know? We still have tonight, and tomorrow. Remember when I told you once by accident, twice by chance and three times a pattern?" Madi nodded at him. "I think the fourth time is by choice and anything after that is fate." with that he finally leaned down and their lips met with a sweet and soft kiss. He felt familiar, like coming home after long hard day, like the first warm breeze of Summer and the last frost of Winter before Spring. He made the guilt disappear, made her feel like she could get more than one chance at love in this life."Terminé

When Did It Go Wrong?
In the midst of his teenage years, a 14-year-old high schooler found himself falling deeply in love for the very first time. However, there was a catch - his beloved was far away, and their relationship was bound by distance. Despite the odds stacked against them, the young boy refused to give up, fighting valiantly to keep the flame of their love burning bright. But fate is a fickle mistress, and three years later, tragedy struck. The boy received the heartbreaking news that his long-distance girlfriend had passed away. Consumed by grief and struggling to make sense of his loss, he turned to his diary for solace, seeking answers to the question that haunted him day and night: when did it all go wrong? As he embarked upon the daunting task of unraveling the enigma before him, our protagonist found himself confronted with an array of formidable obstacles that threatened to entangle him in their grasp and impede his progress. These challenges, which were to prove more insurmountable than he had anticipated, weighed heavily upon him, shackling his life and casting doubt upon his ability to overcome them. Thus began a journey of self-discovery, as the young boy poured his heart out onto the pages of his diary, reliving the memories of his past and grappling with the harsh realities of the present. From the highs of first love to the lows of crushing loss, his story is a poignant reminder of the power of love and the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.)Terminé
