The Grumpy Guy And I
To hopelessly fall in love with your best friend is one of the most cliche things in the world. Maybe that’s just life, after all.
Ally had tried so many times to forget how she felt about Gino, but her wayward heart has a mind of its own.
Her best friend was already in love with someone else. Only, Ghia’s parents were against their relationship and had tried to keep them apart. Ally was supposed to rejoice because fate was on her side. But Gino and Ghia were together against the world. She found out later on the two had eloped!
Suddenly, Ally became problematic. Because Gael, Ghia’s handsome but grumpy brother, had no plans to let her get away and live in peace. He will do everything to find Gino and Ghia. He believed she knew Gino and Ghia’s whereabouts all along.
Ally had no choice. She and Gael set on a search to find the two wherever they may be hiding. She will do that for her love for Gino. But as the days went by, it seemed like her heart began screaming a different name. It’s not ‘Gino’ anymore. It sounded more like ‘Gael’ already.

She knew Ghia to be a down-to-earth person who does not look down on anyone.“You can’t just leave without telling me where your so-called best friend and my sister are,” he said without blinking.Ally raised an eyebrow again.“Says who? You? Why? Are you my boss? And even if, by chance, you are my boss, we have the same human rights. Don’t use that attitude on me. It does not work every time and on every people,” she said bluntly, looking him straight in the eye.Gael was taken aback, but it only lasted for a short while. He stared at her sharply. Ally, on the other hand, could not stop herself from studying his face. He had no visible pores, and he had tiny moles on the side of his eyes. They were of different shapes and sizes, and it suited his arrogant facial features.

She was about to write about the feedback of the people who went to see her best friend Gino’s band’s latest gig—Tough Love.It was her job as their publicist. Tough Love started as an indie band and has now begun penetrating the mainstream industry after collaborating with popular bands in the country.She was the band’s number one fan. Even before Tough Love became a band, she was already a fan of Gino. She was in awe with his talent. He can sing and knew how to play a lot of musical instruments. Not only that. Gino was also a strikingly handsome man. Gino was an IT expert by profession, but his passion for music

Never Ending Story
Tsa is a starving writer in a literal sense. Though the publishing industry is not fair for some writers, she could not simply give up her passion. She worked as a part-timer in her friend's coffee shop to support herself when she's not writing. Then she met Av and Jo, two writers who also share the same struggles with her.
One midnight, she found a mysterious book without the author's name on the cover. The story was about three handsome, magical knights named Raiden, Aidan, and Zaiden, who were tasked to save Princess Amethyst from the hands of an evil wizard. Tsa was frustrated when she found out that the middle part of the book was missing, leaving the rest of the pages empty! Since there was no author's name on it, she could not find another copy of the book.
Out of desperation, Tsa decided to write the continuation of the book from her own ideas. Little did she know that the book was magical. Raiden, Aidan, and Zaiden had now come to life just as how she wrote it!

Ally asked."Your favorite The Ruins. I had it wrapped so it would be convenient for you."She smiled reluctantly."I thought Gael already bought that from you.""I did not know you were friends," Arnold said with a mischievous smile.Ally stopped herself from rolling her eyeballs."We are not friends. Just pure acquaintances. And I had no idea you are friends with him, too. How was that possible?""I am a well-known blogger, remember? I was invited to an event sponsored by their telecom company. I interviewed him, and we clicked. Since then, I was always present on every occasion. He's such an eligible guy, isn't he? What do you think, Ally?" Arnold smiled slyly."I believe I have the right to remain silent," she retorted."Is that Gael's coat?" he asked

Her heart missed a beat."I don't see anything in front of me other than you," he said.Gael's hands on her shoulders brought tiny tickles to her body. Ally fought so hard not to slump her face on his broad chest to be locked in his arms. But how could she believe him when he was too serious? What would it cost him if he would smile a bit? Like, duh!"You don't look like you're sincere.""I don't have to be sincere when it comes to strangers.""And I don't like to be touched by strangers either," Ally said dryly. She flinched, and Gael withdrew his hands from her shoulders. At first, she thought he was starting to be a little kind to her. "Can you move aside now?"Gael got out of her way, but he did not leave. He stood by her side."It's so lovely…"Ally was about to touch the photograph, but
