"Hinding-hindi kita magugustuhan, Del Rosario! You make me sick-in other words, I HATE YOU!"
Sunshine 'Sunny' Elorde has her senior year at Far Eastern University all planned out: ace her thesis, earn the top spot of her graduating class, and finally leave her annoyingly hot academic nemesis in the dust.
Much to her dismay, Rafael Del Rosario is consistently at the top of their class. No matter how hard Sunny studies, even with her excellent class performance and consistently high exam scores, she always lands in the second spot. He's just barely ahead of her in every class.
"Try to keep up naman, Elorder. I'm starting to think you like seeing me on top."
Rafael, the nemesis in question, secretly likes the animosity Sunny gives him whenever she doesn't beat him, so he never lets her win to keep getting her undivided attention. No, he doesn't get offended by her brutal honesty and verbal jabs, he revels in her sharp glares and even sharper words.
But when their professor pairs them for the most important project of their senior year, the last thing they both expect is... chemistry. Real chemistry.
But falling for your rival? That was never part of Sunny's plans.
It's academic war. It's emotional chaos. It's everything she didn't signed up for.
It's just... unacceptable. Like, how can the person she's spent years trying to outsmart be the one who understands her best?
