SCHOOL ROMANCE

The quiet in the apartment became a special place for Alexis Dwayne Villavicencio, the landlord, and Jared Clark Santiago, the tenant. They did their usual things, and their daily routines became a habit. Alexis loved art. He was passionate about painting and creating beautiful things. Jared was a basketball player. Sports were his world, and he dreamed of making it big. At first, they were just strangers. But over time, they became best friends. They shared stories, helped each other, and laughed a lot. It felt like they had known each other forever. But one day, everything changed. The wind shifted, and suddenly, those best friends became strangers again? The closeness disappeared, and a secret they kept was suddenly revealed. A secret that could change everything. It wasn't just about love. It was about a promise, a choice, and a truth that was never meant to be spoken. Because if the wrong person found out... someone's future or life could be destroyed. But what was the secret they tried so hard to protect? Why couldn't they tell anyone, not even the people they trusted most? And now that it's out... who's willing to walk away, and who's willing to fight for the truth? What if their past was the reason? Their past was the reason everything fell apart so fast from strangers to best friends, and then back to strangers. Tatanggapin kaya siya ng pamilya ni Alexis kapag nalaman nila kung sino siya talaga? Mananatili pa rin ba si Jared if destiny itself pulls themselves apart, that seems like the stars are not aligned for them? Then, in the blink of an eye, everything collapsed. And sometimes, loving someone means letting go, even when the end is nowhere in sight, and there's nothing left to do but say goodbye. N A M E L E S S G U Y 2 5
