In a chaotic city restaurant where tempers boil as fast as the soup, two workers become locked in a daily battle of wills - a fiery young server trying to prove herself and a jaded dishwasher who's seen it all. Their workplace rivalry turns every shift into a test of patience, pride, and survival.
But when management finally takes notice and one of them is forced to face the consequences, what seemed like a petty feud becomes a powerful lesson in accountability, growth, and letting go.
Told with sharp humor and emotional depth, Count Your Teeth with Your Tongue is a gritty, character-driven workplace drama about knowing when to fight, when to lead, and when to walk away.
Everyone has a breaking point. What happens when you reach yours?

"You are different. You are courageous. I might be those things too, but there's one thing you're forgetting. We didn't get this far alone. We both have the same spirit inside of us.

Her past with Jonah had faded into the quiet corners of her memory-or so she believed. Years later, a work assignment sends her to a small coastal town she's never heard of. And he's there. Jonah, the boy who once held her whole heart, now a man with his own quiet scars. She thought she had healed. He thought he had accepted the silence. But destiny, ever the unpredictable storyteller, brings them together again... at the wrong time, in the right place. Set in the lush, intimate backdrop of a Philippine province, Her Smile, My Silence is a slow-burn, bittersweet novel about the kind of love that lingers even after it's let go. This is not a story of second chances-it's a story of closure, of remembering without regret, and of finding peace even in the unfinished.Complete
