(HIGH SCHOOL SERIES #1)
Being a top student-it's the dream of many. To be number one. To be the topnotcher. But is it truly about ambition, or simply the desire to make everyone proud?
Geniyah Eleanor Mendez is known for being a genius. The young lady who was expected to have a bright future. Ang estudyanteng nangangarap marinig ang kanyang pangalan bilang valedictorian sa huling taon ng junior high-hindi lang para sa sarili niya, kundi para sa ngiting matagal na niyang gustong makita sa mukha ng kanyang mga magulang.
Pero pangarap pa rin ba ito... o isa na lang obligasyon? Isang habulan ng hininga para sa mga inaasahang hindi naman niya kailanman pinili?
Books, equations, sleepless nights, and pressure that etches itself into your thoughts like carved stone. Will something ever break the cycle? Or will the words meant to uplift her only return to haunt her-like a ghost seeking peace?
Buried memories. Secret glances. Hidden letters. Brief touches, stolen smiles, and a love that once bloomed silently-only to wither in resentment, envy, and pain. A relationship broken by comparison. By insecurity. By a pressure that turned love into bitterness.
But some ghosts return for a reason. And for Geniyah, that ghost has a name. It was Konrad Juanco Fulgencio.
Will she still reach the peak she's been chasing-when the boy she once loved became the roadblock she never saw coming?
