Love at the Coffee Nook |TAGLISH

"All along there was some, Invisible string, Tying you to me?"

For Catarina Beatriz Zobel-Escaño, life is a whirlwind of anatomy diagrams, highlighter-stained fingers, and the constant worry of not being 'smart enough' for med school. For Chen Zichen, life is a series of precise calculations, blueprints, and the studious silence of an engineering student.

They are two worlds apart, Ateneo blue and La Salle green. They are divided by the chaotic streets of Manila and the studious silence of their own libraries. Yet, in the quiet, sun-kissed corner of their favorite coffee shop, the strings of their lives slowly start to entwine.

A favorite pen, a peaceful encounter, and the timely drop of a heavy textbook. Between the chaos of Taft Avenue and the academic pressure of Katipunan, they find solace in each other. They did not know it then, but their lives had been connected all along, bound by an unseen string, the girl with the messy curls and the boy with the steady hands.
