The second hand of the clock ticks, counting down every moment, testing her understanding, patience and the power of emotions. Tick; promises are made. Tock; people leave. Tick; hearts are broken. Tock; people hurt each other like they're meant to.
She has long comprehended how little she is compared to the universe that she grew up with a heart filled with sympathy and empathy. How does she survive 'til the next minute, when every second offered a heartbreak? She may be too pure for this world, but she has all the love to give, and the world, in return, could offer her a glimpse of that unattainable happiness and a passel of consequences.

"Kuya, will you leave Eury?" Her soft voice was heart-melting when she asked him.
"Never."
Along with the rainfall came the young boy's sincerest smile and Eury mimicked him as they linked their pinky fingers.
"Never."

A Sky of My Own
Elara has always felt like she's standing on the edge of the world-watching life pass by, never fully part of it. When everything familiar begins to fall apart, she finds herself drawn to the mountains, where the skies are wide and no one expects her to pretend she's okay. Surrounded by wildflowers and quiet winds, Elara begins to confront the parts of herself she's long kept hidden-grief, loneliness, and the quiet hope for something more. For the first time, she lets herself pause, breathe, and ask: Who am I, when I'm finally just... me? In that stillness, she begins to heal-not by becoming someone new, but by embracing who she's always been. And as she lets go of who she thought she had to be, Elara finally learns what it means to belong... to herself. ~~~ Date Started: May 08, 2025 Date Finished: May 14, 2025Complete

Bakit Nga Ba Mahal Kita
Ferin loved Gemier with everything he had-wholeheartedly, relentlessly, even in the silence where love should have been returned. He poured himself into every moment, every touch, every sacrifice, hoping that one day, Gemier would meet him halfway. But love is not meant to be begged for, and no matter how much Ferin gave, Gemier remained distant-offering only fleeting affections, never enough to hold onto. At first, Ferin told himself to be patient, that love takes time. But time only made the ache deeper, the emptiness heavier. He began to notice the way his hands trembled when reaching for someone who never reached back, how his voice cracked when saying 'I love you' to someone who only responded with silence. The realization came slowly, then all at once-he was exhausting himself chasing a love that was never his to begin with. With a shattered heart and eyes that had long run out of tears, Ferin finally understood: letting go wasn't losing Gemier. It was reclaiming himself. And so, with one last, aching glance, he walked away-not because he stopped loving Gemier, but because he finally started loving himself.
