At anumang oras, pwede ito mangyari.

Isang call center agent na ang tanging gusto ay makapag long weekend at tumakas muna mula sa trapik, rush hour at stress ng normal na araw.
Ang buhay nilang lahat ay magbabago sa loob lang ng isang simpleng araw. Sa pagpatak ng oras, gaano sila kahanda sa kahit anong mangyayari?
Gaano ka kahanda?

Fearless
What if you threw your life away and the world threw it back? If you found yourself in credit to the value of one life? Would you spend that credit on a worthy cause, if fate offered up the chance? **** Alone and a long way from home, Nick's big city adventure is not going at all to plan. With his dreams in ruins and his world crumbling around him, he's struggling to see a way out. Ripped from her everyday life, isolated and imprisoned, Mica's one desperate wish is to escape the urbane monster who sees her as nothing more than a plaything. And for Jaime Salazar, wealth, privilege and power are not enough. At the head of his global crime syndicate, he'll stop at nothing until he has all he wants. Two lost souls, brought together by the strangest of circumstances, find themselves pitted against a crime lord with no mercy in a city that doesn't care. And with so little left to lose, neither will hesitate to risk it all. "Don't say what you're about to say. You can't. Because, right now, if all of this ends, it doesn't matter. But, here's the thing. The instant it starts to matter - it ends. Don't make it matter, Mica." **Please note, as of August 2022, Fearless has been significantly edited, revised and updated.**Complete
TERA BHI KATEGA/ YOU TOO WILL GET DUMPED (FLASH FICTIONS)
Teenage boys and girls get many chances to fall in love over and over again. They fall in love and overcome from that love very easily. In this phase of life break-up does not hurt much. Friends become happier when someone gets dumped rather than when they get their love. Love rivalry is also very common between classmates and friends. When someone starts feeling for someone, friends become happy. They expect to see a failure. They encourage them but also warn them saying, "Tera Bhi Katega," or "You Too Will Get Dumped." I take the name of this series from a very common phrase of teenagers. In this series I will share some unsuccessful love stories. Don't expect happy ending and don't be sad. These stories are short and crisp just like potato chips. Take these stories lightly as there is nothing wrong in getting dumped or rejected by your crush. These life experiences make the young generation world ready. This series is mainly for BL flash fictions. These stories are unrelated to each other. For my convenient I used seven main characters in this series but they may or may not be the same persons in different stories. There would be no character description as the character of a teenager would change with each passing year or after each failure in love. Enjoy them as they are. If you like these stories please vote and comment. I would reply if you ask questions related to any story or character. These stories are totally fictional; I just took a few references from my daughter's random blabbering about her day at school. Do not match them to any real incident; I may not have any idea of that incident anyway.Complete

Believing in Miracles [COMPLETE]
In the beginning she was alive, her soul bare for this man, loved him with every fiber of her being. She was willing to give up everything that she had for him and worked hard for the future they both hoped for each other; when he still existed. She loved him but did he ever feel the same way? He was loving, caring, and kind; everything a girl could ever wish for in a man. The words destructive and inhuman would've never crossed her mind to describe her husband; or was she so stupid to see it all from the very beginning? Every day she prayed to the man above that the love and attention she constantly gave him would be enough to change such characteristic; no, flaw. But it wasn't so. Every day was a battle, getting worse and worse; that one day she just snapped. ***STRONG PLOT AND LANGUAGE*** ***UPDATE*** To my great surprise, this story has been getting more reads than I ever thought possible. I reread what I wrote once again and tried not to cringe at the many errors and awful sentence structure I had. So in the spirit of Christmas I will try to edit and perfect this story. There wouldn't be changes in the plot, just hopefully a better way of sharing my thoughts. If it's still crap, then I apologize I'm only human :) ****Complete

For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.Complete![His Rectifying Graze [COMPLETED✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/270973983-256-k973747.jpg)
