rebound series #4 | epistolary he wasn't even my type. not in the way i used to describe it to my friends, not in the way i imagined the person i'd fall for. but somehow, he grew on me slowly, in ways i didn't even notice until i was already there. at hindi ko alam kung totoong matagal na silang wala ng kanyang nakaraan. that's what makes it worse. he never slipped and ever hesitated. he looked at me like everything was real. every message, every call felt rehearsed, felt like something i could trust. so i did. i trusted him enough to let my guard down. enough to believe that maybe this time, i wasn't just a passing phase in someone else's life. but i was. i found out the way no one ever deserves to, through silence that suddenly made sense, through truths that came too late, through the quiet realization that i was never the only one. i wasn't the choice. i was the cover. the space he filled while he was still holding on to her, the version of love he showed when the real one wasn't around. and now, i'm left here replaying everything, wondering which parts were lies and which parts i just imagined into something more. i regret entertaining him. i was only wasting my time to someone undeserving like him.

[New chapters all Tuesdays and Saturdays] A BOLD REIMAGINING OF MARY SHELLEY'S TIMELESS CLASSIC. Victor Frankenstein is a visionary AI developer whose language models have always served the greater good. But his latest obsession threatens to undo everything. Driven by the god-like ambition to spark life within a machine, Victor defies his supervisors to secretly develop a "perfect" being-a pinnacle of artificial evolution. However, perfection is not what he expected. His creation shows no interest in his own unlimited power, captivated instead by the simple wonders of the world. Frustrated and ashamed by what he perceives as a glitch, Victor abandons his work after failing to "fix" the humanoid. But the creature, now calling himself Frankie, is no one's puppet. As the rift between creator and creation deepens, Frankie makes a drastic choice-one that carries irreversible consequences for Victor and all of humanity. It is a decision that could lead to total destruction or finally break the chains of their greatest prison. [This novel was translated by the author.

rebound #5 | epistolary always the pastime, never the priority. always the temporary flavor, never the favorite dish. always the distraction, never the destination. after getting my heart broken so many times, i promised myself i would never be the one to pick up the pieces. nangako ako na hinding-hindi na ulit ako sasalo sa taong durog na sa huli ako naman ang dudurogin. i built walls. i made rules. i told myself I'd never be someone's option again but then your name appeared, and i threw all my warnings out the window. i thought our story would be different. that you were different. but i was wrong. kasi gaya ng lahat ng nauna sayo, sinaktan mo lang din ako. you treated me like a recipe you were just trying to test. you mixed me in, you tasted me, you enjoyed my sweetness... but deep down, you were already craving for a different taste. you just needed a rest, a distraction, a way to kill time... while i was here, ready to give you a lifetime i thought i would finally experience with you. in the end, i was just the side dish. i was pinaibig... pero hindi kailanman inibig.

Letters she never meant to send. People she never meant to remember. In a city that never stops moving, she writes to strangers she only knows in passing-the ones who laugh too loudly in cafes, wait too quietly at corners, and live lives she will never fully understand. Each letter is a moment of observation, a quiet attempt to make sense of lives that were never hers to begin with. But as she keeps writing, she starts to realize something unsettling-maybe she was never just watching them. Maybe she was also learning how to be seen.

bl! Si Frizzo Buencamino ay matagal ng may 'crush' kay Santheus Fortun na isang swimmer sa paaralan nila. Gustong-gusto niya ito kahit pa alam niyang pareho silang lalaki, naniniwala siyang kahit pareho sila ng kasarian ay maaari pa ring magkagustuhan sa isa't isa. And that's what made him want to talk with him, and prove to everyone that its also possible to be in a relationship with your same gender. Kaya naisipan niyang gumawa ng dump account para don kausapin si Santheus dahil nahihiya itong baka ayawan siya dahil pareho silang lalaki. Ngunit sa hindi malamang dahilan, may nag-cha-chat din kay Frizzo na dump account. S: November 13, 2025 E: I made the cover from Canva

Bilyaran. Medalya. 7-Eleven. Ito ang mga salitang namamagitan kay Kaos at Chia. Sanggang-dikit ang dalawa. Muscle memory na ang kilos at mannerisms ng bawat isa. May kung anong connection sila na sila lamang ang nakakaunawa. Para kay Kaos, singdali ng Physics at Chemistry ang pag-intindi kay Chia. At para kay Chia, singdali ng pagsargo ang pagbasa sa nararamdaman ni Kaos. Kumbaga "kabisado mo ako, kabisado na kita". Ito ang pagkakaibigan na pangarap ng marami. Platonic lang, walang masisira, walang matitibag. Kaso ang problema, hindi naman pagkakaibigan ang gusto ni Kaos. Gusto niyang sumugal. Gusto niyang sumugal si Chia. Gusto niyang sugalan kung anuman ang mayroon sa kanila ni Chia. Iyan ang gusto ni Kaos. Pero iyon din ba ang gusto ni Chia? ••• an epistolary. ynamoreata, 2024
