Iggy records things before they disappear. The cicadas in the vacant lot. The sound of wind before the houses went up. The sound of a quiet street at night when everyone is already asleep. But then, her neighbor Therese starts talking into the recorder. She does it without asking, following him to wherever he wants to record. Over one year in Porta Viento Subdivision, the tapes fill up with ordinary afternoons, with the things neither of them says out loud, with the sounds of a place that's slowly becoming somewhere else. He thinks he's preserving the neighborhood. He doesn't know yet what he's really keeping. Some things only make sense when you play them back. Chapter Release every Friday, 8:30 PM GMT +8

Have you ever heard of a sun shower? It happens when the sun peeks through during a rainfall, creating a majestic scene where golden light mixes with the sparkling reflection of rain on the ground. Sa larangan ng siyensa, isa lamang ito natural na penomenon kung saan hindi sapat ang kapal ng ulap para tuluyang harangin ang araw. Habang sa kultura nating mga pilipino, pinapaniwalaang may kinakasal na tikbalang sa tuwing nangyayari ito. Ngunit para kay Miyumi, sa isang salita niya lamang ito mailalarawan. Pag-asa.

Poems that I wrote about things that I can't JUST speak on

"I can see the light, but it flickers in the night. I know it isn't right, yet it doesn't feel like wrong. Why did it take so long to hear this quiet song? Should I drift along, or keep holding on?" Miguel thought college would only be about three things: Engineering. Surviving deadlines. And graduating. Simple, right? But then he met them. Connections formed. Feelings followed. And suddenly, the lines between admiration, friendship, and something more started to blur. Now Miguel finds himself in a place where nothing feels certain anymore. Not black. Not white. Just... gray. Where everything feels uncertain, muted, and confusing.

What he didn't anticipate was the feelings he would catch and the confessions he would utter - all too sincere.

East High Academy and Westward Academy are every bit divisive as their names suggest. Diametrically opposed to one another or so they believe--- the quaint and prosperous city of El Salvador had long been the battleground for their long and tumultuous rivalry. Known as two of the most prestigious and illustrious highschools in the city, it is the second home of El Salvador's best and brightest students; each an ardent proponent of their school's creed. But as the number of murders and curious disappearances start to fracture the city's mirage of peace, an unlikely alliance is formed beneath its surface and against all odds. Will the tragedies that plague the city finally extinguish the burning hostility between the two schools... or will it ignite a far bigger and virulent fire--- one that threatens to reduce the city to ashes and bury all of them beneath its embers?
