The Unspoken Storm

started {October 5, 2025}

Soleria De Maniego was only in Grade 11, pero pakiramdam niya, matagal na siyang basag. Debt. Silence. Yung mga tinging may laman kahit walang sinasabi. Blame became her shadow, kahit walang nagtuturo, alam niyang siya pa rin ang mali. She learned to carry the weight, even when it was never hers to hold. Hanggang sa narinig niya 'yung tawa, maliwanag, parang liwanag na pinilit bumutas sa ulap. Asterion Kaelith Solvaré. A boy made of sunlight, smiling like pain never existed.

He found her when she was ready to disappear. But how do you fix a girl who's been breaking all her life? And how do you start healing when you're not even sure if you still want to be saved?

"The storm isn't outside us. It's us. It's the way we break quietly at night, the way we keep smiling like nothing's wrong. It's every thought we try to drown, every tear we pretend not to taste. The thunder? That's the anger we never said out loud. The rain? That's the pain we keep pouring, over and over. And sometimes, the scariest part isn't the storm itself, it's realizing we've become it."
