Every World Seems Not Quite Right

Lyrae Meteorite Desiderio was the breadwinner. When her parents died in an airplane crash, she took the responsibility of being a parent of her two siblings. Kaya ganon na lang ang takot niya nang ma-diagnose siya ng stage 4 colon cancer. Paniguradong malaking pera ang magagastos niya sa pagpapagamot. So she had decided to not take any medical cure and wrote a bucket list. Para sana kahit sa huling pagkakataon ay maranasan niya ang mga bagay na hindi pa niya nararanasan dati. She pursued her bucket list with Josh, her best friend and the man she secretly love. Kasama niya si Josh sa lahat ng iyon, pero alam niyang hindi niya makakasama si Josh sa panghuling bagay na nasa list niya: to have sex with a random guy at the bar. That night, she met Azren--a complete opposite of Josh. He was cold, heartless, and serious. Nagising na lang siya kinaumagahan katabi ang lalaking nakilala niya kagabi sa isang hindi kilalang kwarto. Masaya na sana siya sa nangyari nang biglang tumawag ang doktor at sinabing wala siyang kahit anumang sakit at mali ang test results! Hindi niya alam kung paano sasabihin kay Josh ang lahat lalo pa't isang buwan na ang nakalipas at napag-alaman niyang buntis siya at si Azren ang ama!

Yvette Skye has been diagnosed with depression. She thinks her parents will understand her situation, but all she gets is boundless mockery and doubt.

When I became pregnant, my gravely ill mother mentioned that her final wish was to witness my wedding. My boyfriend, William Jones, finally agrees to marry me after I have been asking for 99 days. Yet, on the wedding day, he never shows up, even though I was waiting in my gown at the hotel the whole day. The truth only emerges when someone found his marriage certificate that he had posted a month earlier on social media. He married his childhood sweetheart, Caroline Ashton, during that time. When my mother learns this, the shock triggers a fatal attack. She passes away despite the doctors' efforts. William sends me a message. "I'm sorry, honey. Caroline twisted her ankle, so I had to take care of her. We'll have our wedding next month, okay? I promise I'll make it up to you this time." … A month later, William prepares a lavish, grand wedding just for me. Dressed in a custom-tailored suit, he waits at the hotel. Yet, all he receives is the report from my abortion procedure. There is only one sentence on the back—"William, this is goodbye forever."

Mistakes? I’ve made plenty. The biggest one? Falling head over heels for Brian Lockwood—my brother’s best friend and the captain of the school’s basketball team. For years, I lived in the shadow of my one wish: for him to see me as more than just Simon’s little sister. But how could he, with Lyla, his perfect girlfriend, glued to his side? Then everything changed. Lyla cheated, Brian’s heart shattered, and he was desperate for a distraction. That’s when he came to me with a deal—a no-strings-attached arrangement where we could give each other exactly what we wanted. I saw my chance. I thought I could make him fall in love with me. But I didn’t account for how messy things could get—how keeping it all a secret from Simon would twist everything. And when Brian crossed a line I couldn’t forgive, I knew it was time to let go of my high school crush. Fast forward three years. I’m over him. Or so I tell myself. Except now Brian’s back, no longer the heartbroken boy I knew but a leading basketball star with one goal: to win me over. I swore I wouldn’t fall for him again.

He caught hold of her leg and yanked backwards. She hung on and flailed both legs, kicking him in the head, the face. He fought to hold her legs down. Sweat lathered her hands. They slipped from the post. He yanked again. She rolled over to face him and punched with both fists. Her right fist caught him in the eye. He growled in pain, then threw himself on top of her, pinning her arms and legs. She screamed.She strained to free herself, lunged up to bite him. He jerked backwards. They slid down one stair. She tried to scream again. He slapped a palm over her mouth, his breath hot on her face.She fought him until they had tumbled down every stair. By the time they reached the bottom, every ligament burned. She stared at him wide-eyed, gasping for breath between his bruising fingers.She trembled violently, longed to run again but knew it would do no good. He stood at a good seven inches taller and outweighed her by at least fifty pounds. She didn't stand a chance.All she could do now was placate him. Do what he wanted... no matter what it was!

Niloko at pinagtaksilan si Valerie ng kanyang boyfriend na si Ivan matapos niyang maipagkaloob nito ang kanyang pagkababae. Sa kanyang hangaring makaganti, pumayag siya sa isang kasunduan kapalit ng malaking halaga. Magiging bride siya pero hindi magiging asawa ni Lester Montefalcon, isang gwapo ngunit suplado at mayabang na anak ng isang mayamang may-ari ng malaking pabrika. Pareho nilang inaayawan at kinaiinisan ang bawat isa. "Hindi ikaw Valerie ang tipo kong babae kaya huwag kang umasa! Gawin mo ang nasa kontrata". "Hindi ikaw Lester ang lalaking pangarap ko at kahit ikaw na lang ang natitira sa mundo, hinding-hindi pa rin ako magkakagusto sa iyo!" Ngunit mapanindiganan kaya nila ito kung nagdulot ng kakaibang sensasyon ang kanilang bangayan? Paano kung muling magbabalik ang dating nobyo ni Valerie at desidido itong bawiin siya? Alin ang mas matimbang sa puso niya, ang lalaking hindi niya kayang kalimutan o ang taong ayaw niyang pakawalan?

There's a famous catchphrase since time immemorial: The more you hate, the more you love. Alam ni Dennis na iba siya kompara sa ibang mga lalaki. Imbes na sa babae, sa lalaki siya nakakaramdam ng kakaiba. At may lihim siyang pagtingin sa isa sa mga barkada niya, kay Ervin. Subalit hindi niya ito sinasabi kahit kanino man dahil alam niyang ang taong gusto niya'y may iba ng mahal. Kaya mas lalo siyang determinado na itago sa binata ang kakaibang nararamdaman niya rito. Sa hindi inaasahan, may nakaalam ng kanyang sikreto sa hindi niya malamang dahilan. Raymond, the man who hates his guts. All this man do is to pick on his faults that sometimes, he wants to punch his stupid face. Well, the feeling is mutual. He equally hates the other. But then, Raymond's attitude turned 180°. Kung dati, nararamdaman niya ang inis nito sa kanya, ngayon, si Dennis na mismo ang nagugulat na to the rescue si Raymond tuwing may problema siya. Akala niya ba ayaw nito sa kanya? Wait, this is not a story about love. Maybe?

“What do you mean? What cyst?” Sebastian blinked, staring at the small screen on his phone, feeling his heart beat faster. The emergency information he had just received made him pause in front of his door, but then he ran to the car without thinking. He knew that something serious had happened to his wife. He had to get to the hospital immediately. His voice was hoarse as he spoke to the hospital operator, trying to get a grasp of the situation as quickly as possible. “This is a complication… You need to come to the hospital immediately and sign the consent form for surgery as soon as possible.” The voice was flat but urgent.

One day, in the school's group chat, I accidentally revealed that I was the daughter of Sanfiric Inc.'s chairman. Out of nowhere, Sally jumped in with a scathing remark: [Do you have no shame? Clinging to some random man and calling him ‘Dad' just because you're desperate to be an heiress. Have you lost your mind?] Her accusation left me completely baffled. I didn't even bother responding, but she wasn't about to let it go. She bombarded the chat with photos and videos, all claiming to prove that she was the real heiress. In a video she shared, she was clinging to my father's arm, acting sweet and coy. I stared at the screen in shock, my mind reeling. Before I could even process what I was seeing, the school advisor kicked me out of the group chat entirely. "How could we have such a vain and shameless student? You're a disgrace to the school!" Furious, I whipped out my phone and called my dad. The moment he picked up, I exploded, "Roger Burberry, do you have another daughter I don't know about?!"

I Alpha Ryan Black Bishop rejected you, Bella Adams as my mate and Luna" The last hope of Bella died after hearing this. His words stabbed her heart like a sharp knife, cutting her heart into tiny pieces. She looked at him for the last time. His commanding glare and disgust in his eyes showed clearly that it was over. Bella bent down her head. 'I, Bella Adams accept your rejection" She whispered then turned away. Tears rolled down on her cheek. She started taking slow steps.
