FAZER LOGINTo hopelessly fall in love with your best friend is one of the most cliché things in the world. For Ally, it was one of the biggest mistakes that she had done in her life. No matter how hard she tried to forget her feelings for Gino, her wayward heart had a mind of its own. Her best friend was already in love with someone else. Only, Ghia's parents were against their relationship. They had been trying 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 of letting her get away to 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 sounds like ‘Gael’ already.

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
CHAPTER FOURALLY looked to her left and right, but Gael stopped her by the shoulders and caught her eyes. 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

When she reached the floor where the studio was, her friend was already waiting for her.“You dressed simply,” Lyneth remarked with a sour expression after sharing a quick hug.Ally raised an eyebrow and put her hands on her hips.“And?”Lyneth grinned.“I love it!”Ally giggled. Lyneth was already telling her about the handsome guests she had talked to tonight. Some of them had already agreed to be the faces of the covers of her books. Ally pretended to have her full attention with her story. Her interest was already captured by huge displays of photographs on the walls of the studio. They were so beautiful she wanted to take all of them down and bring them home.“Hey, Arnold!”“Hello, gal
CHAPTER THREE“YOU WORRY so much about Gino that you almost forgot about yourself, Ally. You know what? You’re unbelievable. Are you saying that you’d rather end up alone if you don’t end up with him?” Lyneth, her best friend, exclaimed.Lyneth was a self-published author. Aside from writing, her other passion was eating. There she was actually, munching a popcorn. Ally thought at first that Lyneth brought it just for her. Lyneth ate it instead.Lyneth came to see her after a week of isolating herself from the world. She personally did all the layout of her manuscripts. Her friend would rather self-publish than give up the copyright of her works to traditional publishers. And Ally was in favor of it, of course. She earned from printing Lyneth’s books. She received complimentary copies, too. It’s not a mystery they became good friends.“It’s better than forcing myself, right?” she
