silent reader here! pakum is one of my faves because it highlights relevant issues in our society, the essence of activism, which is truly eye-opening. i also admire na as i read samu & abby's love story, it is empowering and assuring to read this having the same struggles. i hope na habang mas maraming nagiging malaya na maging kung sino sila, mas lumalawak din ang pag-unawa at pag-suporta ng lipunan sa mga taong parte ng komunidad. thr part where samu said he already prepared his things and himself upon admitting his truth, it hit me again na it's sad because may thought na kailangan kaya natin at may napatunayan tayo bago tayo umamin para may matira sa atin. idk if i'm making sense but u know the idea of being accomplished muna bago umamin kasi baka sakaling may rason para matanggap ka. but anw so much love for samu and abby even during the first part pa lang ng story nila. i love how human and warm they are as their own person and also with how they finally chose each other. out or not, everyone is brave for choosing to be themselves. sana'y mas maging malaya tayo sa sarili nating katotohanan. happy pride! thank you for sharing this wonderful story 🌈💜
