AF Series #1: Hiraya Manawari [WATTYS 2026]
Some dreams are worth waiting for.
Hiraya Mercedes has always known exactly what she wants: a successful future built through hard work and determination. Then she meets Manawari Gregorio, and what starts as an unexpected friendship slowly becomes something deeper.
Through college, first jobs, and years of growing up together, they become each other's constant in a world that never stops changing. They dream, they wait, and they promise that someday, everything will fall into place.
But life has other plans.
As distance, responsibilities, and timing pull them apart, the future they once imagined together begins to slip away. And after years of holding on, Hiraya and Manawari must face the question they've been avoiding all along:
How long can love survive when the right time never comes?
Hiraya Manawari is a heartbreaking slow-burn romance about dreams, timing, and letting go.
