The Love I Never Expected

​"Bakit mo naman kasi ginawa 'yun, Jay? Ang tanga-tanga mo!" Jay cursed at himself, his voice cracking as he broke down in tears, his heavy sobs echoing through the deafening silence of the room.

​He had fallen deep for his best friend, carrying those feelings in secret until the day he finally gathered the courage to confess. But instead of the happy ending he hoped for, he was met with a cold rejection-a painful reality he never saw coming.

​When he transferred to his new school, he was completely lost, until he found someone who became his anchor. This person was always there, ready to listen to his silent struggles and dry his tears. And slowly, without even realizing it, Jay found himself falling in love all over again.
