Nerd's Creed
We are the forgotten, the lost, and the rejects.
The ones who give love, but love always neglects,
And we are cast aside, but not without no effects.
Our souls are dying with no one to pay respects.
We are the invisible, the laughable, the misfits.
Not without our scars caused by all our critics.
It will kill some who become just a statistic.
That won't stop the ones wanting to crush spirits.
We are the jokes, the gossip, and the rumors.
The ones who give you fuel for all your pointless humor.
The ones that get treated like cancerous tumors.
Wishing you'd have gotten rid of us sooner.
We are the options that you place on a back burner,
There when you need us, but you're not a quick learner,
And we don't have it in us to be any sterner,
So we will continue to allow you to be a spurner.
We are the geeks, the freaks and the nerds.
The ones who get hurt by all your shitty words.
You question our lives and even our worth,
But the geeks are the ones who shall inherit the earth.

Will Wendy be able to keep hanging onto the love she has for him, or will she finally choose to let go and heal?
***
"I don't have to lose myself just to have him." Wendy Feriol is meant for great things-'yan ang paniniwala niya. Hindi maikakaila na magaling siya sa maraming bagay- pagpaplano, pamumuno, sa art, at maging sa negosyo. She is someone you don't want to mess with, maliban sa pag-ibig. Marupok si Wendy pagdating sa taong mahal na mahal niya. Para kay Renzo, handa siyang mabaliw, masaktan, at magpakatanga. Her miserable life begins when she is arranged to marry the man she deeply loves.
"E 'di makipaghiwalay ka. Ano pang hinihintay mo?" Natigilan ako at hindi nakasagot. Ngumisi siya at lumapit kaya umatras ako pero hinablot niya ulit ang braso ko. "Ano? Hindi mo kaya?"
Pinunasan ko ang luha ko at tiningnan siya nang mabuti. "Hanggang kailan mo ba 'ko pahihirapan dahil lang minahal kita?"
"Hanggang sa pagsisihan mong minahal mo 'ko."
