UP Diliman. Dorm life. Endless café shifts. Aira's days are a careful balancing act between surviving school, supporting her family, and chasing her dreams.

Then Adrian walks in, the tall, quiet stranger with tired eyes and a favorite coffee that always seems to find him. He's just another customer... or maybe not.

As Aira observes him for her feature writing assignment, she realizes some connections can't be explained by schedules, classes, or caffeine alone. Between coffee and dreams, hearts stir, stories unfold, and life teaches lessons no textbook can capture.

Something Between Then and Now by iamquietelle
44 parts Ongoing
She was the girl who always followed the rules-the eldest daughter from a well-off family, the quiet achiever who excelled in her studies but hid her heart behind logic and restraint. An accountancy student turned successful accountant, she lived by discipline and precision, convincing everyone-including herself-that love was never her priority. But deep down, she longed to be seen, understood, and loved for who she truly was, not just for what she could achieve. He, on the other hand, was everything she wasn't-an engineering student with effortless charm, a campus heartthrob, the kind of person whose laughter filled rooms and whose warmth drew people in. They were worlds apart, yet she couldn't help but admire him from a distance throughout their college years. Until one day, with her friends' encouragement, she took the risk she never thought she would-confessing her feelings before graduation. His answer was simple, sharp, and unforgettable: "You're not my type." Years later, fate plays its quiet game. At their college reunion, she's no longer the shy, unsure girl he once knew-now a confident accountant, woman chasing her dream of opening her own café. He's an accomplished engineer, still charming, but this time, it's his turn to notice her. Old memories resurface, and unspoken words hang heavy between them. Can time and growth rewrite what once ended in rejection? Or will she finally realize that sometimes, the love you thought you needed isn't the one you were meant to find? A story of second chances, self-worth, and the quiet strength of a woman who learns that being enough for herself is where love truly begins.

RILEY. She has always been her class' 'The Quiet One'; the girl who likes to read alone in the abandoned corner of the school and who never makes as many friends as an average teenage girl would. But Riley is where she belongs. She learned to be content of where she is and to be satisfied with what she has. ADRIAN. He is happy too. Or at least that is how he looks to most people. He always smiles, brings laughter to everyone he knows, is the best student a school could ever wish for and appears to have a very fun-filled, perfect life. But Adrian's smile is masking something he hates about himself; something he struggles to forget everyday. When Adrian and Riley's paths cross, a special bond forms in between the two as they create their own meaning of first love. But with Adrian's inner struggle screaming inside of him, will this bond help them get to where they want to be or act as a barrier that Adrian has to take down without Riley?
