Ligaya was a healer-wonderer from the world unknown to the human eye -the Realm of Ibawnon. One day, her realm was put in danger due to the threat that the Malignobons, the evil spirit dwellers, was pushing their way.
As her realm's Sole Redeemer, she had the responsibility of protecting everyone from the upcoming danger. But despite having a magnificent amount of zest to counter their enemies, Ligaya could still only do so much without her true zest level. In order to bring her total zest back, she ventured out into the human world to find the one person who's responsible for her incapacity and bring that person with her to their realm to defeat the enemies. That person was Vanness "V" Jalandoni, a rich and famous Engineering student slash basketball team captain of their university. When the two of them finally met, things began to go in shambles. One's intention was different from the other and it all made everything messed up. The human world was so much different from where Ligaya came from and V was making her situation more troublesome. Before she could return to her world, she still needed to convince V to believe her and make him come with her. Would she be able to complete her mission? Or would she just surrender her fight in the human world and go back to her realm before it was too late?

Chapter: Chapter Nineteen: V followed Ligaya to the living room. Although he didn't want to apologize, he just felt a little guilty after somehow mocking a situation that seemed personal to Ligaya."Hey, I was just kidding. Are you mad? Where are you going?" He asked simultaneously."Writing an excuse letter. We still need to take the test." Ligaya answered casually."Oh? Why the hell?"This time, she did not answer but continued writing nonetheless."Let me do it." V offered"Why?""Why not?. . . Fine! Just so you know, they don't accept hand-written ones." V said matter-of-factly. Ligaya paused, contemplating, and then finally gave in."Fine." She just said and stood up.She went upstairs and V went upstairs as well, but none of them talked along their way. As they went inside each of their rooms, V felt uneasy.Why the hell would

Chapter: Chapter Eighteen: Silhouette of Someone I KnewAfter V woke her up in the car, Ligaya did not bother to eat anymore. None of them bothered to eat actually. They were too full to take in another meal. As they went inside, Ligaya immediately went to the kitchen where she would usually sleep while V went upstairs. -----------------The house was dark and silent. Ligaya, who was just sleeping on the long wooden chair in the kitchen was having a good rest, until midnight, when everything went colder and darker than usual. It made Ligaya semiconscious and opened her eyes a bit. But instead of seeing nothing but an empty dark kitchen, a silhouette of someone in a robe appeared standing before her. This immediately triggered all her senses. Thus, within a split second, she was able to throw one of the beads from her bracelet to the man as she sat upright.The impact of the bead caused an explosion since her accessories were actually mi

Chapter: Chapter Seventeen: OriginsAfter eating and buying some school stuff for Ligaya, V and her finally decided to go home. While driving, a sudden thought came into V's mind."Oh shit," V cursed under his breath. There was slight hint of annoyance in his face."What's wrong?" She asked. Although, unlike her question, it seemed like she did not care at all as to what was wrong."We forgot to buy something.""No, we didn't.""We did. We didn't buy your....you know.""You mean those small pieces of cloth that are used to support the bosom and the gentalia?""Well, yeah. And I shouldn't be discussing this thing with you, for Pete's sake, you idiot!""Don't worry, I asked the lady earlier if they have some of those while you were away and they gave me some of it. I didn't know it comes with different designs. And they really look thin and uncomfortable to use.""What do you mean? Oh, just forget about it. Don't answer my question."&nbs

Chapter: Chapter Sixteen: PunchFew minutes passed by after V left the mall's men's section, he now had reached the place where he's heading to, the basement. There were 2 people waiting for him there, but they seemed to know each other as they nodded to one another's direction. One of them handed V a pistol, but V just refused to have it."Who the fuck are you kidding? We don't need guns for amateurs," he sounded authoritatively, thus making the two placed their guns at there side as they went to where the crime scene was taking place. As they approached, three men were seen setting a time bomb at one of the cars in the basement, and they seemed to pick the particular car intentionally."Doing some nasty things, huh, little ones?" V asked the three men seriously."What are you..who are you?!" The man at the back spoke angrily. They were now pointing their guns at V and his companions. But instead of freaking out, V and his men just stood there coolly an

Chapter: Chapter Fifteen: Inside Sinatra University were numerous buildings of assorted shapes and sizes. Few of them were the university's very own dormitories. There were four dormitories all in all. Two Kinetic (big) dorms, one for boys and one for girls; then two Potential (small) dorms, one for boys and one for girls as well.Kinetic Dormitories were designed for everyone from all walks of life who wanted to experience the Sinatra life more than ever, or those who were not originally from that city, while the Potential Dormitories were designed for scholarship recipients and such. Mia was one of them. The dorm she's living in was called the Tuberose Potential Dormitory. It was situated near the university's scholarship building and across the Nursing Department, thus making it a perfect place for her. Aside from its ideal distance to her department, it was also an ideal place for every student to even develop camaraderie since it's smaller than the usual dormitory size, as well as more homey
