Twitter has always been an entertaining platform. On a daily basis, there's a chance for a topic to trend that will bring twitter a surefire conversation starter. Filipinos worldwide seem to be amused on a sensation that's been making the rounds on Twittersphere recently.
Twitter serye –a series or story in twitter, is a creative storytelling that dominated the trend list. It is built up through threads and replies to make the narration entertaining and interesting and is usually a fan fiction or a fanfic. The thread feature makes the reading more convenient, especially for readers who want to share or retweet their favorite line from the series.
Gwy Saludes, the author who became popular online for her fictional “Twitter series” that were portrayed by the on and off screen couple, Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, published a new series that became a hot topic on twitter.
The popular thread entitled "By Mistake" was posted July 5 and ended on July 11. It tells the love and hate relationship of Ivor (Daniel Padilla) and Lily (Kathryn Bernardo).
Gwy Saludes (@4reuminct) made a short summary of it: "A KathNiel Social Serye where Ivor, one of the university's top students, ends up in a fight with Lily , a woman who has a long-time crush on him, over a wrong Grab message" said on the first tweet. It started of with Lily's mistake of texting Ivor's number and then makes flirty chats to get his attention. Ivor happened to be fresh out of a break up with another character, Calli, who later tried to get in the way of their relationship. Reading through the thread will make you think of “Will their differences be a hindrance? Or will they develop affection for one another?” Try reading the whole story on Twitter to know what will happen next. You won’t regret it!

Before ending this article, I've realized that being a fan isn't a waste. It becomes an avenue of creativity for fans who are having difficulties to find the medium to express themselves. Fan fiction has always been a place of freedom for extremely talented writers to show their support for their idols. It's an underrated craft but sometimes we get a series so well-made that it captures the hearts of people. The future of Twitter serye looks upbeat and it being successful proved that good stories with a lesson never fail. So what are you waiting for? Start reading to feel the super dose of kilig!
