To Stay Without Breaking

"I only have one rule; Do not fall for me, Guerrero. Because I will never catch you if you fucking fall."

Liaene Ellyne Guerrero, a girl that smiles easily, speaks impulsively, and carries expectations without complaint. Her future has always been decided for her. This time, it comes with a name she already knows.

Sebastian Rafhael Vale is known for being careless, loud, and impossible to take seriously. He jokes through everything and avoids anything heavy. But when it comes to business and family matters, he is disciplined, exact, and more than serious.

When an arranged marriage binds them together, distance is no longer an option. They share the same space, the same responsibilities, the same expectations neither of them asked for.

She falls first. Quietly. Without demand.

He falls later. When it is no longer simple. When it already costs too much.
What begins as an agreement turns into something harder to control. Proximity builds tension. Silence carries weight. Every moment tests the line between duty and desire.

Some feelings grow in silence. And some...arrive too late.
