2 | Patintero | JHOCEY
A JhoCey AU where- Just when Stacey has finally made peace with her past, finding closure and moving forward-she meets someone with the face of her greatest love. Haunted by the resemblance, Stacey must navigate her emotions and confront the uncanny connection, asking herself: can she truly open her heart to someone new? or is she trapped by echoes of the love she left behind? --------------------- ❓Quick summary Three years after the events in Sikulo, Stacey seems to have finally moved on. New life, new routine, fresh start. But one day, she meets someone. Someone who looks exactly like the woman she tried so hard to forget. Is it Jho? Or a completely different person? And more inportantly... does it even matter? --------------------- 📚Yes, this is part of a series! 1. Sikulo - The intro (Just a short read, a little over 2 hours. It's not as polished as Patintero, but trust me it's worth it because if you start with Sikulo, you'll enjoy Patintero the way it was meant to be.) 2. Patintero - This one! It picks up three years after Sikulo, mostly from Stacey's POV. So yes, there's a time skip. 3. Binhi - What happened during those missing three years between Sikulo and Patintero. This follows Jho's side of the story after Sikulo. You don't have to read it, but if you do, I promise it's even better than Sikulo and Patintero combined. That's why I highly recommend it. If you end up loving Patintero, I know in my heart you'll love Binhi even more because by then, I've grown so much more as a writer. --------------------- COMPLETED. Temporarily set to on going due to change of tags.Complete
