(The Lost Souls on Tour: The Second Tour) Wants; are something that can drive us to do everything in order to have what we desire. People frequently remark: that if you want something, you must work hard for it. Pero paano kung may mga taong una pa lang, kayang-kaya nang makuha ang mga bagay na gusto nila nang hindi pinaghihirapan? With one lift of a finger, they can already take a grasp of the things that they desire, something that other people envy the most. And that is the case for Rhysand Amias Trevino.

This is not an ordinary love. This is an endless love.

(SPHEROID CHAMBERS #2) Black is for darkness, White is for light, Blue is for sadness, and Yellow is for happiness. Different hues and different purposes. But Conrad Efrain Soliven only knows Black and Blue. He lived his life in Black for years and he's oblivious about the other colors. He was born seeing Black and feeling Blue. He's an easygoing person despite everything he had been through. He felt contentment when he met his bandmates. But it is not enough for him to excavate different colors. Until she came into his life, the painter of his life. She put different tints in his plain canvas. She stirred the Black, Blue, White, and Yellow. She made him feel different sentiments. She taught him that every color is indicating how we feel and how it'll turn into something amazing if we blend it precisely. But everything changed in a blink of an eye. White and Yellow withered, and the Black and Blue assaulted the two like an unforeseen bomb that they didn't expect to explode. Black and Blue spilled on a well-colored canvas, giving it a dark and painful stain. "This Sonorous Zeal ravaged us badly. It was a devil in disguise, it made us feel heaven. But now, we are suffering from limitless anguish." Started: 2022 Finished: 2023 Language: Filipino-English
