Micah was the leader of her music group. It wasn't because she was the oldest, it was because she was the most reliable one. Her four members always looked at her when they needed a voice to tell them they performed well, or when they needed a hand to hold when haters bashed them. Micah Kalinawan isn't all that tough, though. She, too, has her vulnerable moments wherein she'd need an ear to rant to and to say how happy she is when fans praise her. So, Dion Jasper de Santos steps in and becomes the ear she needs. And they catch a fondness for each other. But what happens when Dion and she are forced into a corner to either admit or deny their feelings?

Kio Soledad de Merced always kept his life quiet and private. He never wanted anything flashy and grand. Attention and spotlight were the two things he never wanted to have. Calm and easy, that's how he preferred his life. Shiloh Lumiere Bendia's life was far from what he wanted, she was born for the spotlight. Living under the scrutinizing eyes of the world, Lumiere's life consists of cameras and flashes following her whenever she moves. The world gravitates around her, and everyone who sees her is drawn to her light, including him. The moment he saw her on that stage with the spotlight shining on her, he knew he would spend his whole life admiring her from afar. But with the twist of fate and a little luck, his fate might have changed. A secret moment. A lingering stare. Quick stolen moments behind the camera that no one knows about. But to what extent can they sacrifice for a losing battle they knew they would never win? To love is to risk. To risk requires courage and courage is only found in places we're too scared to take. ---- Date Started: March 2025 Date Finished: June 15, 2025
