Jim Paita has Our Lady of Sorrows High School eating out of the palm of his hand. It's all to do with that devastating charm. When he notices invisible, rule-loving Trini Moreno, it leads to something precious and special that neither expect.

Please enjoy this short story throwback to high school in '90s Manila, where first love blooms among Walkmans and mix tapes, between varsity practice and library period. The Charmer is the first story in the Our Lady of Sorrows high school trilogy.
