When Her Sky Grew Tall

Mithirielle Elara Silang has a dream big enough to carry her whole family. Growing up without a father, she learned early that life was never easy. She'd spent her days in the sun-scorched rice fields-her small hands calloused from planting palay at dawn, her back sore from harvesting under midday heat. Lahat ng tungkol sa pagsasaka, alam niya she knew farming like the back of her hand.
So the moment she understood what poverty felt like, she etched it into her heart: Kailangan kong magsikap para maraus sila. She had to work twice as hard to lift them up.
She graduated high school at the top of her class, with flying colors-but she never thought college would be within reach. Money was tight, and hope felt like a luxury she couldn't afford. Until her aunt reached out, offering her a chance to be a working student in the city.
Her plan was set in stone: focus on her studies, build a stable career, and give her family the life they deserved. No detours. No distractions.
But what if she meets someone she never saw coming? Someone who was never part of the plan? Will their love take root in the middle of her carefully mapped path or will she choose the future she'd dreamed of since the very beginning?
