[It Gays Series #1] Kriswin Heron Dela Fuente was so in love with Jhob Abe Cornelio secretly for five years, the notorious singer of their university. He fell in love because of his golden voice and handsome face that he couldn't believe that a simple admiration would turn into something more. He always does everything to be noticed but it always backfires for some reason. In the shadows of what could've been, he concealed the love he dared not to utter, a secret he locked away in the depths of his heart. He forced himself to hide the ache within as he watched the man he secretly loved from afar, loving someone else. He is a silent observer to the love he could never have, trapped in a prison of his own making. A love forbidden by circumstance, a heart imprisoned by fear and a truth that would forever remain unspoken. Echoing in the hollow of his soul like a relentless whisper. But what transpires when everything turns upside down and his love will now be noticed?

In 1944, amidst the chaos of World War II, a soldier and a pauper painter found love―at a time when such love was deemed a grave sin. The painting survives long after the men are gone, but its truth remains buried in silence and shame. Decades later, a 21st-century photographer stumbles upon it. As he unravels the mystery of its creator, he also uncovers a story of love defiant against time, prejudice, and war. But will he lay bare the artist behind the Naked Soldier―or will the search instead strip him bare of his own carefully guarded disguise? ࿐ ࿔*:・゚ Language: ENGLISH-FILIPINO Genre: BOYS' LOVE Date started: AUG. 9, 2023 Date finished: AUG. 12, 2023 Type: NOVELLA Word count: 18,000 Status: COMPLETED
