Patron Saint Of The Philippines

Catherine Vergara a accepté l’invitation d’une amie à une soirée, juste pour éviter d’assister au mariage de sa cousine, celle qui l’a trahie avec son ex. Lors de cette soirée, elle a vécu une brève rencontre avec un inconnu… et est tombée enceinte d’un homme dont elle ignorait tout, qu’elle ne pourrait jamais retrouver. Pourtant, le souvenir de cet inconnu ne l’a jamais quittée. Jusqu’au jour où elle a commencé à travailler comme assistante pour Alexandre Miller, un PDG aussi séduisant que stressé et impatient. Mais Alexandre ne voulait rien avoir à faire avec elle. Il était obsédé par une femme qui s’était volatilisée.

 Mataman ko lamang siyang pinagmamasdan mula rito, sa may ‘di kalayuan. Batid ko na kanina pa siya sa akin naghihintay.  Halata ang labis na pagkainip na mababanaag sa kaniyang hapong mukha, ngunit sadyang hindi ko magawang maihakbang ang aking mga paa palapit sa kaniya… hindi ko pa kaya.  Alam ko, na sa sandaling gawin ko ang bagay na iyon ay ito na rin ang magiging simula nang tuluyan kong paglimot sa kaniya— na matagal ko na sanang ginawa.      ●  SA edad labing-anim, labis na nasaktan ang murang puso ni Cinderella, nang malaman nito na ang lalaking lubos n’yang hinahangaan ay may napupusuan na palang iba.  Dahil sa nangyari, isinumpa niya sa sarili na hinding-hindi na siya muling iibig pa. Na si Miguel Balbuena lamang ang nag-iisa at natatanging lalaki na kakikiligan niya –wala ng iba.  At para maisakatuparan ng dalagita ang bagay na iyon, napagpasyahan nito na baguhin ang sarili niyang katauhan– ang maging isang tomboy.   Hanggang kailan mapaninindigan ni Syd ang pagtotomboy-tomboyan, kung makasalamuha niya na ang lalaking katulad ng isang Juan Benedicto Antonio III?   Juan Benedicto Antonio III, a 25-year-old future CEO of Antonio-Go Corporation, one of the largest distributor of Agro-Chemicals, fertilizers and seeds in the Philippines. A certified womanizer at never pang nagseryoso sa isang babae. Ayaw nitong pinagsasabay ang business and pleasure,kaya naman agad nitong sinisibak sa trabaho ang sinuman sa mga nagiging sekretarya, na nagpapakita ng mga kakaibang motibo sa kaniya.  Paano kung makasalamuha na ng binata ang kakaibang sekretarya sa katauhan ni Syd Santos, isang lesbiyana at nang nagsabog ang Diyos ng lakas ng sex appeal sa mundo ay sinalo na nito lahat.  May mamuo kayang love story sa pagitan ng dalawang nilalang na ito, na parehong nakararanas ng Pogi Problem Syndrome?

J'avais prévu de lui annoncer cette bonne nouvelle aujourd'hui. Mais maintenant ? Il était temps de mettre fin à ce lien de cinq ans.

Shantali Mae Cross, a security guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Ancient Arts, encounters an impossible phenomenon during her night shift—smoke from the heating vents coalesces into the form of a cobra near ancient Egyptian canopic jars, showing her visions of possible futures. She sees herself accepting a promotion, arguing with a dark-haired man in a hospital, wearing a wedding dress, and standing at a graveside in autumn. Shaken by the experience, Shantali becomes obsessed with understanding what she witnessed, diving into research about serpent smoke divination practices. Her investigation reveals that others throughout history have experienced similar visions at crucial crossroads in their lives, but those who became consumed with interpreting and controlling their prophetic glimpses inevitably destroyed the very relationships and opportunities the visions had shown them. As Shantali spirals deeper into her research, she begins shutting out her boyfriend David, a fellow security guard who loves her deeply. When David witnesses the cobra phenomenon himself, he helps ground her in reality rather than obsession. Through her studies, particularly the warnings left by Dr. Amelia Thorne—a researcher who died alone after chasing similar mysteries—Shantali realizes the cobra's true message: choose love over fear, presence over obsession. The visions weren't warnings of tragedy but glimpses of a life fully lived with all its ordinary struggles and profound connections. When David proposes, Shantali chooses their real relationship over her pursuit of supernatural answers. She completes her research by writing a fictional novel about her experience, transforming obsession into art while helping future cobra witnesses understand that some mysteries are meant to guide rather than be solved. The story explores themes of choice versus destiny, the danger of sacrificing present love for future certainty, and the wisdom of embracing life's uncertainties alongside those who love us.
