Tor tapos na tlga? Talgang talaga? HAHAHAHAHA but anyways not gonna lie, I was expecting that you will end it like this, like an open ending but maybe I was expecting a more convo about her past or her being more direct and honest with him like in word not just her body language. I've been thinking about it the whole night and I realize that what you did was better... as expected from my fifth favorite. One shots are always like this, it is the best and worst thing cause it was always amazing to read but not long enough.
Tor, Is it bad if I feel like this story feels more like a his POV? It's like the focus of the story is showing us how to love a person right, and that's what Eryx does, loving every version of Taury accepting and understanding her, giving her space but at the same time giving her the warmth(like his presence) that he thinks she needs. This feels like his journey of falling in love cause from the first chapter I remember how she got him intrigue and curious about her. How he msg her first like lol boi what u talking about u search for her name, what come across ur profile lol HAHAHAHA 🙄. Asking for coffee then got upgraded to asking for dates real quick and then him accepting that this is not just curiosity, it not 'I like her' anymore, it was I love her, I care for her, I want to understand her more. I LOVE HER, I love every version of her and I will always love her in the right way.
P.S. It's too long na but I also understand Taury, like why she hides when she cried, her pride, why she had a hard time accepting love even tho she knows its genuine because it was not easy to remove the doubts, the scars that are left behind by our painful past.
And OTORNIM HUHUHUHU I want to see Taury's reaction to his "proof" 😭😭😭
Oh, this message. This beautifully overanalyzed, emotionally charged, and incredibly thoughtful message. First, let me say—if this story kept you up at night, then I’ve done my job. And second, fifth favorite?? Wow. I’ll take it. A spot in your top five? An honor, truly. (But wow, Riru. The amount of lies in your system is unbelievable. Last time, I was your second favorite—now I’m fifth? What did I do?!)
Now, onto your insights, because they deserve to be acknowledged. Yes, the story leans heavily into his perspective, but not because Taury’s story isn’t just as important—rather, because understanding her was always Eryx’s journey. From curiosity to certainty, from intrigue to devotion, from “I like her” to “I will love her the way she needs to be loved.” That’s the core of it. He doesn’t demand her walls come down on his terms, nor does he try to force answers out of her. He just stays. And sometimes, staying is the most powerful thing love can do. (Ayoko mag-add ng more hahaha hindi ka naman naniniwala sa akin, gosh! SMH!!)
As for Taury—oh, I love that you see her. The way she lets herself entertain love yet still keeps her guard up, how she allows herself to be close but never too close. She isn’t just pushing love away—she’s fighting herself, insisting it’s just desire, just something fleeting, when deep down, she knows it’s more. Healing isn’t about tearing down walls all at once; sometimes, it’s about letting the right person stand outside them long enough to be sure they won’t leave. And maybe she didn’t say everything outright, but love isn’t always spoken. Sometimes, it’s in the way someone lets themselves be seen, piece by hesitant piece.
Now, about that proof—listen, if I show you Taury’s reaction, you might just move me up to fourth favorite, and that’s dangerous. Gotta keep the suspense alive, you know? But I see you. And I appreciate you. Thank you for reading, for feeling, and for thinking about these characters beyond the page. That’s the best kind of compliment a writer could ask for. ✨ Riru, pangit!! Sana hungry ka ulit tapos naulan, Riru, tamad!! 🤣🤣
