Past Harana Chapters:       *  Chapter 1   Harana Chapter 2: That's What Friends Are Four “ I own you now. ” Umalingawngaw sa isipan ni Ash ang bantang ito habang naglalakad sa maingay na pasilyo ng AS.  Para bang wala siyang ibang naririnig na salitang nanggaling sa banda ni Trey sa freshie concert kinagabihan.

More than anything, he’s excited to go to school! First day sa kolehiyo. First day sa bagong chapter ng buhay niya dito sa Maynila . “Wag na wag kang male-late anak ha!” Yan ang sinabi ng nanay niya sa kaniya noong tinawagan siya nito mula sa probinsiya. “Opo inay! At saka mag-aaral talaga ako nang mabuti kasi alam ko naman kung gaano kahalaga sa atin ang makatapos ako.” Kaya unang araw ng pasukan, dali-daling sinakyan ni Ash ang binaon niyang bisikleta papuntang camp...
