Youth Stories

At St. Lourdes Academy, two students are known as the brightest minds of their generation. Luca Villanueva, the school's mathematics wizard, can solve impossible equations faster than anyone else. Logical, disciplined, and competitive, he believes every problem has a solution. Lala Reyes, the science genius, is equally brilliant. Curious, creative, and fearless, she dominates every science competition she enters. She also has a strange obsession with matcha and wasabi-flavored food. The problem? Luca absolutely hates matcha and wasabi. And he dislikes Lala almost as much. Their rivalry becomes legendary throughout the academy as they compete for the title of top student. Every contest turns into a battle of intelligence and pride. But when circumstances force them to work together for a prestigious national academic competition, they slowly discover that behind the arguments and competition are two lonely teenagers carrying enormous expectations. As friendship begins to replace rivalry, feelings neither of them expected start to grow. Can mathematics and science finally find a common formula for love? Or will their stubborn hearts remain unsolved?

Sixteen-year-old Rem Kotsuki wants only one thing: to spend the rest of his high school life in peace. No clubs. No drama. No unnecessary human interaction. Just a quiet desk by the window, a reliable coffee vending machine, and the kind of life that requires absolutely zero effort to maintain. It lasts approximately three days. Enrolling at Seiren High was supposed to be the easy part. Instead: his childhood friend Tamaki is now the school's untouchable idol. His long-lost sister resurfaces with a bright smile and an agenda he can't quite read. His homeroom teacher has decided he's an experiment worth running. And somehow, despite his efforts, he has acquired a friend. --- "Isn't it weird how you always try to avoid socialising?" "Not at all. It is precisely because I'm a background character that I must avoid such troublesome scenarios." "Huh? That just makes it ten times worse, doesn't it?" --- Hidden beneath Rem's lazy smile and indifference is a boy running from his own talent, his past, and the quiet conviction that the people around him are better off without him in the spotlight. Seiren High disagrees. Forced into the role of class representative beside the girl he'd chosen to watch from a distance, handed a Spring Festival to organize from scratch, and surrounded by people who are entirely too perceptive for their own good, Rem finds himself doing the one thing he swore to avoid: Getting involved.

I don't have any clue how it happened. I can't remember what caused it or the reason why I have this ability, I just do. I woke up, and I just did it.

Some stories don't begin with a moment. They begin with a glance, one that lingers that you can't explain long after you've looked away. Like déjà vu in a place you've never been. Like recognizing someone you've never met. Like your heart quietly whispering, it's them, Before you even know their name. It's a story about two people who kept crossing paths, finding each other Only in passing glances. Or maybe they did meet. Just not in the way they realized. Because not all love stories are loud. Some bloom in silence. Some live in quiet moments. Some are written between glances. And maybe that's what this story really is. A reminder that the heart sometimes sees someone first... long before the mind understands why. ... ヾ(≧ ▽ ≦)ゝ ...

Seventeen-year-old Lin Ruoying has got it all- she's smart, athletic, and popular. She's a genius in all she does, and so when her school's annual math competition rolls around, she's confident she has what it takes to win at last. Unlike last year, when she accidentally rounded to the nearest tenth instead of hundredth, and her team kicked her off for ruining their chance to win, as if she wasn't hurt and humiliated enough already. This year, though, Ruoying is sure that it'll be different. She's got a new friend group who is ever supportive of her, she's participating in her school's orchestra, and she's even found an after-school woodworking class to sharpen her skills. And so she studies and practices, carefully outlining all the possible ways to win. But all of her plans fail when she steps into the auditorium. And suddenly, Ruoying doesn't know what to do, because her genius is finally being rivaled by someone- and this someone happens to be a prodigy on the tennis court, and on top of that, he makes her heart stutter every time she looks at him. At least she won't have to see him anymore. He's a year above her, and it's an unspoken rule at school- third years don't interact with second years. For once, she's glad for it, because every time she pictures him, all she can remember is her crushing loss. Yes, only that. And definitely not how kind of cute he actually is. But fate always has a way, and soon Ruoying begins spending more time with the tennis team. Through victories and defeats, highs and lows, she begins to discover who, really, makes her world feel like Elysium. [Disclaimer: The characters mentioned in the story are not mine unless stated.
