ABOUTquote
Thank you for passing by and for checking my profile. I am a single mother who works in an international company for six years now. I love coffee as much as I loved my ex-boyfriends. And just like coffee, these ex-boyfriends were dangerous for my health. I am a hopeless romantic woman who believes that a bad boy could still change once he met the right girl. Oh, and I also believe that pigs can fly! No, but kidding aside, writing helps me keep my sanity. I consider it as my calling--I believe that I was born to write and inspire people. And I want to keep writing until I draw my final breath. I am invested in writing slice-of-life stories, romantic drama and or romantic comedy, and maybe a bit of ero-romance. I am consistently inconsistent when it comes to updates, but I always do my best, and I make up for everything. Xx

CERLANCE ZODIAC
Updated at Jun 29, 2022, 17:35
Cerlance Zodiac is the 6th child of the Zodiac Family. He's a transporter of many kinds; love letters man, dokumento, regalo, turista, o ng babaeng lasing. He had been a driver-slash-transporter for years, and he was enjoying his job until this drunkard, broken-hearted woman booked his service for a week. Ihatid daw niya ito sa tatlong destinasyong maaaring kinaroroonan ng lalaking nang-iwan dito sa altar. She was chasing after her ex-fiance, not because she wanted him back but because she needed closure. Cerlance took the booking and prepared himself for a week of service. But what he didn't prepare for was his heart. Because little did he know... that this woman was going to turn his world upside-down. Pero kakayanin ba ng isang Cerlance Zodiac ang maging rebound lang? Should he just leave her to one of her destinations and save himself from heartaches, or should he stay and take risks?

TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH
Updated at Feb 19, 2022, 18:59
Seann Matteo Ventura travels around the world like it was nothing- thanks to his family's fortune and perks of being a politician's son. Nagagawa niya lahat ng gusto niyang gawin at napupuntahan lahat ng lugar na gusto niyang puntahan. He can even fall in love with anybody he fancies and his parents wouldn't even give a damn. He is as free as a bird- until ROXANNE MARIE MADRIGAL. Naiwan ito sa pangangalaga niya - which only happened after he lost in a bet. He was obliged to look after the rebellious and hard-headed lady, which at first was really difficult until he found the right way to tame her monstrosity. He brought her to all his destinations to teach her a lesson for being a bad, bad girl. He brought her to Brazil to show her what fun really looks like. He brought her to Africa to show her how children's lives were cut short from 'real' starvation. He brought her to Cuba to show her how rebellion changed people's lives. And he brought her to the orphanage to show her how beautiful life despite all the imperfections. He showed her the beauty and the cruelty of the world, the good and the bad side of people, and the difference in life and living. But would Roxanne listen to him? Or she would continue listening to the demon inside her head?

FREE PHILLIAN ZODIAC
Updated at Feb 7, 2022, 22:46
Free Phillian Zodiac is a frustrated painter and a full-time fisherman. Mula gabi hanggang madaling araw ay nasa gitna ito ng karagatan kasama ang mga tauhan para mangisda, at sa umaga naman ay tulog at nagtatago sa araw. In the afternoon, when the sky is red, he would go out of his room and sit on his veranda overlooking the mountains and the sea, and from there, he would start painting. He paints everything his eyes could see, and not a lot of people know this. Isang hapon, habang nasa veranda siya ng kaniyang silid at ipinipinta ang karagatan ay may nakita siyang palutang-lutang na kahoy sa dalampasigan. Using his binoculars, he learns that it isn't just a piece of wood but a raft with a person on it. An unconscious--probably almost dead person who might need some help. Naisip niyang baka isa iyon sa mga mangingisdang nagkaroon ng aksidente sa gitna ng karagatan. At dahil siya ang nakakita ay responsibilidad niyang tulungan ang taong iyon, lalo at nasa bahagi ito ng beach na pag-aari na ng pamilya niya. Nang marating niya ang baybayin ay saka niya napagtantong hindi mangingisda ang naroon, but a woman wearing a bridal gown. Nakadapa ito at nanginginig sa lamig. He saved her and brought her to his place. His female assistant nursed her, and when she woke up the next morning, she claimed to have no memory of the night before. Pero totoo ba talagang wala itong maalala? Or it was just part of her MO?

MY HEART REMEMBERS
Updated at Feb 6, 2022, 16:29
He was known as the bad boy of the school. She was known as the bad boy's "FLAVOUR OF THE MONTH". Whilst he's popular for his heroic actions and friendly personality, she was only popular because of him. He loved her, but she loved someone else. He promised himself that he would never stop until she says YES, but all she had to say to him was NO. All he wanted was her love. All she wanted was for him to disappear from her life. Until one day, he did. And that's when she realized that she needed him. "Sometimes, you realize too late that what you're really looking for is exactly what you just let go." **

CAN'T WIN, CAN'T LOSE
Updated at Jan 29, 2022, 23:36
Sa araw ng pagtatapos ni Raven sa kolehiyo ay may dumating na sanggol sa kaniyang tirahan; an eighteen-month old baby who was introduced as his daughter. Hindi niya itinanggi iyon. Because the baby looked EXACTLY like him; his carbon copy. But she got her eyes from her mother--- from his ex-girlfriend who accused him of raping her. He was 20 when he was accused of raping his girlfriend. Ipinakulong siya ng ina nito at ang masama pa ay sinuportahan iyon ng testimonya ng girlfriend nya. He was put in jail for a week until his father took him out and sent him away. He had no idea that he got her pregnant--- she just disappeared without a trace. Binigla na lamang siya nito nang ipinadala nito ang bata sa harap ng kaniyang bahay. Sobra siyang nasaktan sa kaalamang tinalikuran nito ang pagiging ina sa kanilang anak at iniwan ang bata sa pangangalaga niya dahil sa isip nito ay bunga iyon ng isang pagkakamali. That hurt him so much-- because he loved her and she was the only woman that mattered to him; pinatawad niya ito noong ipinakulong siya nito sa bagay na hindi niya ginawa, pero hindi sa pagtalikod nito sa kanilang anak. He was heartbroken, hurt and angry. So, he promised to never involve himself to any romantic relationships with any woman ever again. He focused on his daughter---loved her to destruction and treasured her more than his life. He took good care of her and raised her well --- by himself! Until his daughter's 7th birthday... the WICKED WOMAN came back to take his daughter away from him. Did she really think he would let her take away his daughter after what she did to him? To them?

Letters and Tears
Updated at Jan 20, 2022, 13:39
Kelly was a shy lady who had tough times at school because she was being bullied, made fun with, and treated like an outcast. Every girl in her class hated her for no apparent reason. Until this transfer student from the US came and pointed out why; Kelly was disliked by other girls because she was effortlessly beautiful inside and out. Brad Craig was that guy. Hunk, hot, heavenly. And he had his eyes only for this shy lady who had no idea how beautiful her heart was. They were neighbors who became best friends. And as months went by, they eventually fell for each other and became lovers. Kelly thought she would never be lonely again because Brad was there to love and support her. But then, a phone call from the US ruined her fantasies. Brad was called on to join the US Marine Corp-- one of the most elite fighting forces in the world. It was their family tradition to serve the nation, and Brad had no choice but to comply. Due to the danger he would be facing, he asked Kelly to forget him and move on with her life. He couldn’t just let her wait for him to come home from war; it would be impractical. But Kelly refused to forget and let go of him. She insisted to wait. She made him promise to come back to her and she promised to patiently wait until it happens. During those months that they were apart, they would write letters for each other; letters of promises and love. They both knew that one day, when Brad was done serving his country, he would come back and they would be together again. Sadly… it didn’t happen.

ARRIVEDERCI (Till We Meet Again)
Updated at Dec 25, 2021, 18:48
Mortal na kaaway ang tingin ni Yarri kay Deo Evangelio; ang notorius playboy ng Sta. Barbara Academy. Walang ibang nais ang dalaga kung hindi ang mawala ito sa kaniyang paningin, subalit tila pinaglalaruan sila ng kapalaran. Bilang Student Council President, hinamon si Yarri na disiplinahin at patinuin si Deo. Hamong sapilitang tinanggap ng dalaga. Araw-araw silang magkasama, araw-araw na nagku-krus ang landas nila. Hanggang sa isang araw... sa araw ng kanilang pagtatapos sa senior high, ay tuluyang nahulog si Deo Evangelio sa kaniya. Subalit si Yarri ay walang interes na patulan ang isang playboy na katulad ni Deo. Kaya naman sa harap ng marami ay tinanggihan ng dalaga ang pagsinta nito. Isang linggo makalipas niyon ay muling nakita ni Yarri na may kasamang ibang babae si Deo. That, somehow, made her sad. Nalulungkot siyang isipin na kung pinaniwalaan niya si Deo noong nagsabi ito tungkol sa nararamdaman sa kaniya, ay baka napasama siya sa mga babaeng niloko at pinaglaruan nito. Simula noon ay ipinangako ni Yarri na iiwasan na si Deo; hindi na ito nais pang makita ng dalaga. But then again, fate played tricks on them. Isang taon makalipas ay muli silang nagkita ni Deo. This time, he showed no interest to Yarri anymore. Ang masama pa ay kailangan nilang magsama sa iisang bahay, sa iisang bubong. That's because their parents; Yarri's mother and Deo's father, were in a relationship and were getting married soon! Papaano nila haharapin ang isa’t isa sa araw-araw nang hindi nag-a-angilan?
