Snores, Shores, and Something More

Lily thought the week-long beach trip would be the break she needed — sun, sand, and the safety of her barkada.What she didn’t expect was Ralph August de Leon.He’s not part of their group. He’s just a friend’s tag-along. And he was supposed to be someone else’s maybe.But somehow, he becomes her late-night conversation, her dirty ice cream buddy, the arm she accidentally hugs in her sleep.And when a kiss sparks by the bonfire, it lights up more than just the night — it sets off ripples through old friendships, quiet heartbreaks, and things left unsaid.In between stolen glances, silent tension, and a whole lot of fishballs, Lily learns:Some things begin where you least expect — and some people, no matter how briefly they enter your life, just stay.
