Every 4 PM, like clockwork, Elle would walk into Brew Haven - not for the caramel macchiato she claimed to love, but for the boy behind the counter who never spelled her name right on the cup. Liam, the quiet barista with messy curls and tired eyes, never said much, but his smile? It lingered longer than the coffee's steam. Just when Elle thought her little routine couldn't get any sweeter, a familiar face from her past walks in - Kai, her childhood best friend turned almost-something, now back from Manila and suddenly very interested in her new "coffee habit." One cup. Two boys. And a heart that's not sure which one to pour itself into.

"Gihigugma ko ikaw." Saad ko habang nakayakap sakanya. Alam kong hindi nya naintindihan ang sinabi ko kaya panatag kong sinabi yun. "Gihigugma ko rin ikaw." Napakalas ako sa pagkakayakap ng marinig ko ang sinabi nya. "Alam mo ibig sabihin nun?" Tumango lang sya. "Paano mo nalaman?" "Kay mama, tinanong ko kasi kung anong ibig sabihin ng I love you sa cebu." Napatakip ako ng mukha dahil alam kong namumula ito. Pero tinanggal nya ang mga kamay ko at hinawakan nya ang aking pisngi. "Gihigugma ko ikaw Jade." **************** Gihigugma ko ikaw salitang Cebuano means I Love You. Kaya ganyan yung title para po maiba naman. Parang yung title nya 'I Love You Mr. Sungit'. Atsaka pure tagalog po ito. Please support this. Thank you!

The Summer We Turned Blue "Do you believe people meet for a reason?" "I used to think no. But then I met you... and now, I'm not so sure anymore." What happens when two souls-one chasing dreams, the other running from expectations-collide in the middle of a humid Cebu summer? Chihiro "Chi-Chi" Escharelli, a fourth-year nursing student from SMILE University, has always been the type who hides behind his laughter. He's bubbly, kind, and effortlessly friendly-the kind of boy who seems like he has life figured out. But behind his bright smile is a quiet soul, an overthinker with a heart that feels too much and speaks too little. He was never supposed to meet Skyler Kang-the Korean exchange student who seems to shine wherever he goes. Skyler is everything Chihiro isn't: confident, popular, effortlessly magnetic. A business student, basketball captain, and walking contradiction who calls everyone "bro" but looks at Chihiro like he's trying to read his soul. It all starts with an accident- a basketball flying straight into Chihiro's face, and suddenly, the summer that was supposed to be ordinary turns into something neither of them were ready for. From stolen glances in class, awkward Instagram chats, and photobooth pictures that hold too many unspoken feelings... to late-night walks, shared bracelets, and rooftop beers that taste like almost. Chihiro finds himself wondering- Is this just friendship? Or the kind of connection that only happens once in a lifetime? And Skyler... Is he just being kind, or is there something deeper behind that easy smile? But summer never lasts forever. And sometimes, even the brightest blue fades with the season. A coming-of-age story of friendship, love, and the fleeting beauty of summer.

For the love of random poems and verses. Mostly in English, but includes translations to it.

Paolo: This is not your usual love story. It wasn't even love at first sight. It was more like hate a first sight. She was everything I never wanted in a girl. I thought I knew everything about her. But then with one touch everything changes. With one kiss our world turns upside down. And then I find myself helplessly and magically falling... Ericka: All my life I pretended to be something I'm not. I knew that it is better to be real and to tell the truth. But I had to lie, I had to pretend. That way people wont get hurt. I won't get hurt. Or so I thought, that was until I met him. One touch and everything I tried so hard to establish crumble before my very eyes. And finally for the first time in my life I could finally be me. "The complexity of love is so hard to understand. It is one of those things that that you can't explain by words. And it needs not to be because basically, love is not a word that is meant to describe. Rather it is a feeling meant to be express."

This is an another poetry by HyperShookt....Enjoy
