In this emotionally gripping tale of love, betrayal, and second chances, she once believed Tyrone's love was real, but it turned out to be a mere illusion. Heartbroken and shattered, she now stands alone, with only her mother for support. The distance between their worlds seemed insurmountable-him belonging to the heavens, and she confined to the earthly realm.

But what happens when fate weaves their paths together again after five long years? Will she be willing to risk her heart once more, or will the scars of the past keep her from taking that chance? As the story unfolds, she discovers that people can change, and Tyrone is no exception. Can she find it in herself to forgive and open her heart to love again, or will past pains keep them apart forever? In this poignant tale of love's twists and turns, she must confront her own vulnerabilities and decide if love is worth fighting for, even if it comes at a great risk.

Devoted To You

A week had passed, and we had not discussed what happened on Tyrone's birthday. Everything seemed to have returned to normal. He continued to work with me at the shop, and he became even sweeter than before. I couldn't help but wonder what was going on with Tyrone. Each passing day, my love for him grew stronger. 


"Diane, someone is looking for you," a colleague informed me. Tyrone still had classes, so he wasn't on shift now. I turned to see who it was that was looking for me. I already knew who it was. My heart raced, and I felt nervous, even though I knew I hadn't done anything wrong. Slowly, I approached him. 


"Good afternoon, sir," I greeted him, trying to maintain a neutral tone. Mr. Alfred didn't smile; he looked serious and scrutinizing. I couldn't help but feel uneasy. 


"Five hundred thousand pesos," he stated, and placed an envelope on the table. I immediately looked at it, my heart pounding in my chest. I had an idea of what it was for, but I needed confirmation.
