Out of my League
Adrianna is an ordinary college student who's trying to get through her life by working part-time. Isang araw ng pagdalaw niya sa kaniyang ina ay kinagiliwan siya agad ni Madam Polly, ang ina ni Axl Genesis. She offered her to work for Axl.
Ang akala niyang masaya at simpleng unang araw sa trabaho bilang secretary ni Axl ay nauwi sa isang pangyayari na lubos niyang pinagsisihan. She became a witness of a crime done inside the Genesis Office. And became the suspect for it.
She did everything to prove that she's innocent. In the end, she has to stay with Axl, in his condo unit so she can prove she is innocent. Axl made sure she's safe as a witness and secured as a suspect as well. And he made sure she stays with him while the investigation is on going.
The investigation and Adrianna's work with him was a rollercoaster ride. Unti-unti niyang nakilala si Axl. She found out why Axl became aloof, she found out why it was hard for him to trust people. Hindi nagtagal, nalaman niyang nahuhulog na rin siya rito.
With her status in life and Axl's wealth, alam niyang imposible silang dalawa. She left for Axl's sake, to save his name and his family. But Axl didn't want it that way. He's willing to fight for her, he's willing to face all the problems as long as she's with him. Adrianna realized that she can do the same, that she can protect him and love him while they're fighting for each other. They are willing to prove that there's no such thing as meant to be, that there's no such thing as destiny, because you can be with someone as long as you want to be together. We create our own destiny.

Chapter: EpilogueNote: This is Axl's POV and it will start from his childhood to the present so please wag sana kayong magpalito sa transitions. Most of the scenes already happened in the previous chapters so you'll be familiar. Lastly, I have an author's note and FAQs after this chapter!EpilogueWhen I was younger, all that I believed is that people were born to be naturally selfish. We crave the things that can satisfy us, that can make us happy. We do everything, to get our desires, to be contented.But all along, I've been questioning myself, does a person ever feel satisfied? Do we ever feel contented? Do these things really make us happy?I stared at the transient blue skies ab

Chapter: Chapter 45Madam Selena's public apology didn't end everything. It made other people angry. Mayroong nagalit nang nalamang totoo ang ginawa niya at pinilit itong pagtakpan ng GGC at ng mga airlines na nabanggit. Mayroong tinanggap ang katotohanan pero ayaw na ulit magtiwala. At mayroong natuwa, dahil sa kabila ng masamang nagawa ay humingi ng kapatawaran ang mga Genesis.Madam Selena's speech is scripted. Si Axl at Alistair ang gumawa nito. Bago ang lahat ay kinausap rin nila ang mga airlines na maaring maapektuhan. Everyone agreed to apologize for their wrongdoing, at nangakong hindi na iyon kailanman mauulit.It may look insincere because it's scripted, still I felt Axl and Alistair's humbleness in that presscon. Hindi man taos sa puso ng kanilang lola ang paghingi ng tawad, still the fa

Chapter: Chapter 44Gustong-gusto kong makausap si Alistair matapos ang nangyari, I badly want to tell him that he doesn't really have to do what his grandma wants. I wanted to convince him that there's other way around, hindi niya kailangang magsakripisyo ng ganito.May pakiramdam akong ganoon din ang gustong gawin ni Ma'am Poly, pero mas gusto ni Sir Arsen at ni Axl na hayaan na muna siyang mapag-isa. Sa huli ay sumang-ayon nalang din ako at tuluyan nang nanlumo.Madam Selena left after talking to him about the Pearsons. The smile on her face is so selfish and it was hurting all of us. I feel like being a Genesis is a curse for them, I feel like despite the wealth and power that they have, they are still jailed to the fact that they should keep strengthening it.

Chapter: Chapter 43"Hindi paba tayo lalabas? Baka hinihintay nila tayo.." Hindi ko na alam kung ilang beses ko na itong sinabi at katulad kanina ay parang wala siyang naririnig.Nakahiga kami sa kama at nakakulong ako sa mga braso niya. Ang kaniyang mukha ay nakasiksik sa aking leeg. He would kiss my shoulder blade and my cheek every now and then."Axl.." sinubukan kong gumalaw pero lalo lang humigpit ang yakap nito sa akin."Let's cuddle more.." his hoarse voice said. Muli ay pinatakan niya ako ng halik sa aking pisngi.Natutukso na rin akong manatili nalang dito, lalo pa ngayong ayaw niya na akong pakawalan. Pero ayaw kong malunod sa kaniyang mga halik, baka hindi na ako makabangon.

Chapter: Chapter 42He looks so pissed while driving. Mula paggising ko nakasimangot na siya at mas lalo pang lumala nang nakita ang suot ko.I'm wearing a denim shorts and a shirt, at rubbershoes. Marurumi kasi ang mga damit at pants ko kaya puro shorts ang naisusuot ko. Hindi naman siya nagkomento pero nararamdaman kong may kinalaman ang suot ko sa pagkakainis niya.Tahimik kami sa loob ng sasakyan. At nanatili ang pananahimik niya hanggang sa makarating kami sa mansyon.Nakaabang si Ma'am Poly sa malaking pintuan, nakangiti na agad nang natanawan ako. Ngumiti ako at sinalubong niya naman ako ng yakap. She looks happy, hindi ko alam kung bakit."I'm so excited! Umalis ng maaga si Axl at nang si

Chapter: Chapter 41Tahimik kami habang nasa sasakyan. Gusto ko ulit magtanong pero ayokong marinig ng mga kaibigan ko ang pag-uusapan namin kaya nanatili akong tahimik.Isinandal ko ang ulo ko sa likod ng upuan at tuluyang naramdaman ang pagod para sa buong araw. Nahihilo man at gusto nang matulog ay pinilit kong manatiling gising para maituro ang apartment kay Axl.Pero ganoon nalang ang gulat ko nang makitang lumiko ang sasakyan sa daan patungong university. Kunot noo ko siyang nilingon. "A-Alam mo ba ang apartment namin?"Hindi ito nagsalita. Nanatili ang seryoso niyang mga mata sa daan na tila doon ibinubuntong ang pagkakainis.Nakumpirma kong alam niya nga kung saan ang apartment nang pumas

Chapter: Epilogue"You're not worth just a million, but millions, and billions, and trillions, and all that I have." - Fifth MontgomeryEpilogueHindi pa rin ako kumbinsido kahit nang patungo na kami sa Fiasco para sa celebration.Hindi ako sigurado sa nararamdaman, I'm shocked, I'm happy but I'm worried too. Sinong hindi magugulat sa ginawa ni Fifth? 10 million is not an easy money. Pakiramdam ko matatanggap ko pa ang isang milyon pero ang sampung milyon?I'm happy at the thought, yes, who wouldn't? His mere reason for buying it is because he 'has' to have it, not want but he has to. Ang rason niya lang ang pumipigil sa aking magalit.But I'm worried. He ca

Chapter: Chapter 37Instead of saying, "I'm damaged, I'm broken, I have trust issues" say "I'm healing, I'm rediscovering myself, I'm starting over. - Horacio JonesEnd the culture of silence.To the eyes of the law, rape is a crime. Anyone who is proven to have committed this crime should face a corresponding consequence. The law ends with that.But to the women who are victims of sexual abuse and exploitation, rape is not just a crime that happened, it's a whole different thing that shattered their life to pieces. And justice won't be enough to seal the wounds of a victim, for it will haunt them for as long as they live, for it will immobilize them and prevent them from

Chapter: Chapter 36Everything started falling back to places.The hearing started a week ago. Si Papa ay nakalabas na ng ospital at kasalukuyang nagpapahinga na sa mansyon, with Tita Trisha taking care of him. I don't know how they are coping up with Alorica being in jail but I will try my best to help them both.Noong huling bisita ko last weekend ay mukhang maayos naman sila. Papa is in maintenance of his medicines, his brothers are handling the company. His relatives apologized to me too, noong naabutan nila ako doon. I accepted all their apologies wholeheartedly.I'm planning to visit again this weekend, tutal ay hindi naman ako abala at literal akong tumatambay lang sa condo habang naghihintay ng graduation.

Chapter: Chapter 35"Everyone heals in their own time and in their own way. The path isn't always a straight line, and you don't need to go it alone." - Zeke ThomasTulala ako kay Fifth habang ginagamot niya ang iilang sugat na nakuha ko nang bumagsak kami kanina. Ang mga luha ko ay natuyo na sa aking pisngi. I feel so exhausted. Sobrang haba ng araw na ito."It's done, you should rest now.." he murmured.Tumango ako ngunit hindi naman gumalaw. Nanatili rin siyang nakaluhod sa paanan ko at nanonood sa akin."What will happen now, Fifth?"Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at marahang p

Chapter: Chapter 34"You are not the darkness you endured. You are the light that refused to surrender." - John Mark GreenI should have known from the very start that Alorica hates me to the pits of hell. Because my mother ruined her family. I should have known she can do everything to make me pay for it.Pero hindi ko inisip iyon. We are sisters, yes half, but we share the same father. At kung ako ang nasa kalagayan niya, siguro nga ay masasaktan ako, but I won't live in anger my whole life, I will eventually try to accept her as my sister.Pero siguro nga hindi pare-pareho ang pag-iisip ng tao. Just like how I held my grudge for my father, maybe that's how she held hers for me

Chapter: Chapter 33"A woman in love with herself is magnetic." - Abiola Abrams, The Sacred Bombshell Handbook of Self-LoveRivers is very professional when it comes to nude artwork. A first timer like me didn't feel uncomfortable at all. He doesn't give off the kind of aura that makes a woman feel disrespected. All I saw is his focus and his connection to his work.Medyo nakakangawit ang pose ko dahil nakaangat ang isang kamay ko para matakpan ang kalahati ng aking mukha. My lips are parted a bit too giving a pale innocent look. Ang isang kamay ko ay nakatakip sa aking dibdib. I'm sitting sideways, magkadikit ang aking mga tuhod.Binalot ako ng mga pulang rosas na plastik. Their
