She got to be a scholar of Dr. Ramirez, a famous doctor in Manila, and a personal maid of Kiel, one of his sons. Kiel is the ideal guy. To be hated. He's got the looks, jet black hair and strong features, but he's spoiled and wretched. On the other side, here's Karl, Kiel's one and only big bro. Karl is the total opposite of Kiel. They're both handsome, but Karl is more quiet, shy, and gentle. No wonder Ara got a crush on him the instant they met. But a big problem stands in her way. Karl has this long-time girlfriend. Ara gets a bit heartbroken. When Kiel hears that she likes his brother, he tries to push her away from him and continues to annoy her. Little did anyone know, Kiel was slowly falling in love with his personal maid. Years passed, he was deeply falling in love with Ara. Now, Karl is planning to marry his girlfriend. Upon hearing this, Ara got so heartbroken and depressed. She also realized one thing she never expected. She also fell in love with her master. But it was too late. Kiel got tired of seeing Ara follow his brother, so he found someone else. Worse, it was Ara's best friend, Lara. But it wasn't the end of the world for Ara. When the Ramirez siblings' one and only cousin, Ada, comes to the house for Karl's wedding, she sees broken hearted Ara. She helps her stand up again and face someone better. Will Kiel realize her one more time, or will Ara finally find someone else?
FALL DUOLOGY #1
Reivelloise Rivas Lacuesta
College was supposed to be another peaceful chapter for Reivelloise Rivas Lacuesta. Yung tipong gaya ng elementary, junior high, at senior high niya: puro aral, bonding with friends, gala, at memories na iiyakan sa graduation. Simple and predictable.
Pero biglang may papasok na bagong category sa buhay niya: love.
After years of thinking "bata pa ako para magkacrush," Reiv finds herself falling hard for someone. Ang problema? Yung taong gusto niya, may ibang gusto. Wala siyang ibang pinansin kundi ito... pero ang crush niya, wala ring ibang tiningnan kundi ang taong hindi siya. So what will she do? Will she do everything just to be seen, or let fate decide what's meant for her? If it's meant to be, it will be. If not, then maybe it never was.
In the middle of unreciprocated feelings, tahimik na kilig, at mga tanong kung "susuko ba o lalaban pa?" Reiv starts to see herself in the stories she used to only watch from afar.
Minsan, habang iniintindi natin ang kilos ng ibang tao, hindi natin namamalayan... tayo rin pala, may sarili nang kwento na unti-unting nabubuo.
What if ganoon si Reiv? What if the ending she never expected... was the one written for her all along?
