𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐓 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐑𝐘 - 𝙍𝙄𝙂𝙃𝙏 𝙒𝙃𝙀𝙍𝙀 𝙔𝙊𝙐 𝙇𝙀𝙁𝙏 𝙈𝙀 - 𝑴𝑨𝑳𝑬 𝑷𝑶𝑽 Hindi ko kailanman pinangarap na maging café owner. Dati akong engineering student-hanggang bumagsak ako sa exam na akala ko'y magbibigay direksyon sa buhay ko. Mula noon, pakiramdam ko wala akong degree, wala akong plano, at lalong wala akong halaga. Kaya itinayo ko ang Cold Brewed, isang café na bukas lamang mula 8 PM hanggang 2 AM-tahimik, simple, at sapat para makapagtago sa mundo. Nagbago ang lahat nang dumating si Sera.

Minsan, may dumarating lang para ipaalala sa'yo na sapat ka-kahit hindi mo pa kayang paniwalaan iyon para sa sarili mo.

In a society where blue is classified for boys and pink for the girls, Shiloh Ching Escarra struggled during his childhood when he discovered his fondness for the toys and colors that were only labeled for the girls. Despite confining himself in the darkness, Brent Matthew Jarsdel, his roommate and the son of his mother's friend, gradually peeked through his thick walls and found a way to paint his world according to what color he genuinely prefers. In the midst of those unexplainable feelings, confusions, and judgements, Brent was willing to risk it all; to fight for the love he unexpectedly found; to build him a home where his true colors would finally be accepted.

They say that happy-go-lucky people bury their deepest pain behind smiles. For Maverick Evander, an architecture student, was entangled in a web of uncertainty by his parents' decision to separate. Beneath his playful image and a well-known loud circle, he was able to carry a facade-a mystery no one could ever decipher. How can you read someone when they are just black pages in the book? That's how engineering student Rade Archiel Tejano sees Mavric: a blinding sun you could only graze upon. And the more he tries to solve the puzzles in Mavric's mind games, the more Mavric's wall thickens. Will Rade be able to crush someone who is already broken? Will Mavric top someone when he's the one who's falling? In a play where one had to win, both of them fell...hard.
