"Trained to win arguments. Destined to lose us." In the elite, high-pressure world of San Sebastian College, kilala ng lahat ang Apex: the university's most powerful, brilliant, richest, and untouchable circle of five. And at the absolute top of that food chain sits Kierzen Vance. Cold, calculated, and fiercely arrogant. He's the multi-awarded debater na kayang magpabagsak ng kahit sino gamit lang ang boses at talino niya. He never loses. Never. Until Avery "Vera" Soler walked in. Vera, isang self-made scholar na nabubuhay sa purong diskarte, puyat, at iced matcha. Hindi siya takot sa yaman ni Kier, at lalong hindi siya nadadala sa nakakatunaw na titig nito. For three years, they have traded the number one rank. Kulang na lang mag-giyera ang buong lecture hall tuwing nagkakaharap silang dalawa. They are oil and water. Fire and ice. The ultimate academic rivals. But when a prestigious international scholarship forces them into a brutal, final competition where only one can win, the boundaries of their rivalry begin to blur, isa lang ang pwedeng manalo. Behind closed library doors and late-night study sessions, unti-unting nag-iiba ang ihip ng hangin. Something intense, terrifying, and undeniably real. Mga bagay na sila lamang ang nakakaalam. Kierzen Vance knows how to tear any argument apart. Expert siya sa paggiba ng kalaban. Pero sa unang pagkakataon sa buhay niya, mukhang matatalo siya sa sarili niyang laro. Dahil paano mo lalabanan ang kaisa-isang tao na kapag natalo mo... ay siyang tuluyang wawasak sa 'yo?

Started: 04/27/2021 Ended: 08/24/2021 Ang hirap palang tumanda. Ang hirap magbayad ng bills. Ang hirap suportahan ng pamilyang akala ay isang milyon ang suweldo mo. Ang hirap ngumiti sa nanay na mataas ang tingin sa'yo pero hindi ka kayang ipagtanggol. Ang hirap tabihan sa hapagkainan ng tatay na pinag-uubusan mo ng pera pero hindi ka maalala. Ang hirap mag-abot ng tulong sa kapatid na baon sa utang. Ang hirap intindihin ng hipag na nakakapagpa-rebond pa kahit kapos na kapos na. Ang hirap pakisamahan ng bunsong halos ilahad ang mga palad tuwing makikita ka. Ang hirap ngitian ng mga taong tanong nang tanong kung bakit hindi ka pa nakakapag-asawa. Ang hirap humarap sa mundong isasampal sa'yo na mag-isa ka. Tulong, bigay, utang. Isang iling mo lang, madamot ka na. Kasama mo sila kapag may maibibigay ka, pero hindi mo sila mahahanap kapag wala na. Ikaw ang kakayod, sila ang tutuka. Ikaw ang iiyak sa pagod, sila ang magtatamasa. Iyon ang summary ng buhay ko. Sobra-sobra ang naririnig na paghingi, kulang na kulang ang naririnig na pasasalamat. Sobra-sobra ang pagpapasensya, kulang na kulang ang natatanggap na pagpapahalaga. Sobra-sobra ang binabayaran, kulang na kulang sa kasiyahan. Kaya nang dumating sa buhay ko ang nag-iisang lalaking hindi ako nakita bilang naglalakad na alkansya, ang nag-iisang lalaking nakinig sa mahabang listahan ko ng problema, ang nag-iisang lalaking nagbigay sa akin ng kakaibang saya, ipinangako ko sa sarili na sa gitna ng hirap ng pagtanda, magtitiis ako basta't siya ang kasama. Kahit pa ang kapalit noon ay pagtalikod sa minahal na pamilya. Kahit pa ang kapalit noon ay paglaban sa mundong pinatatakbo ng kapangyarihan at pera. Kahit pa ang kapalit noon ay ang pagdurusa't pag-iisa. Siya ang ginhawa, pahinga, at kasiyahan ko. Dumating man ang araw na tanaw ko na ang dulo. Dumating man ang araw na wala na kaming sagot sa lahat ng bakit at paano. Dumating man ang araw na pareho na kaming talo.
