Hi, mga accla! Ako nga pala si Dexter Aldama-valedictorian, certified dance floor diva, at proud Xavier bading. I had a crush on Jolo since forever, until one quiet varsity boy walked into my life: Kenji Matsumoto, chinito, tahimik, at parang walking mystery novel with abs.
We were just supposed to be friends. Emphasis on supposed.
But one secret dance, one slow hug, and a million unsaid things later... bakit parang ibang kilig na 'to?
Hindi ko alam kung ako lang 'to o may something na kami.
But when sparks fly in silence, how do you know if it's real?
A coming-of-age BL story about timing, slow-burn tension, and falling in love with the boy who says the least-yet means the most.
(COMPLETED) Bradley Teo Lauchico
High school friends fell in love with each other.
Haunted by a traumatic upbringing and a cruel false accusation that once drove her into a lonely life in Washington, Rome struggles to believe she is worthy of the Lauchico name or the future Bradley so desperately wants to build for her.
Bradley, ever persistent, chooses to dismantle his perfect image to prove that his love isn't a cage of expectations, but a safe space where Rome's brokenness is cherished.
The two trade the pressures, finding their ultimate healing in the realization that a home isn't defined by a status, but by the choice to stay when the rest of the world walks away.
