Sandejas Legacy #3: Chaining Lockets Sandejas Legacy continues... "He's still chained like a locket, not to me...but in someone else's neck." Crest Veronica Sandejas is the high-maintenance fashionista heiress of Atty. Iñigo Sandejas. The ultimate kikay of the century, she loves shopping, glittery things, booze, and parties. She believes in living her life to the fullest because she can only have it once. She loves spending money; she loves hanging out with friends and partying all night that her father could already imagine white strands of hair on his head. She's a happy-go-lucky woman, but behind those smiles lies the loneliest woman you'll ever meet. Crest was living the life until she met that man with seductive gray eyes and a strict, cold face, Lt. Lorcan Keith Dmitrov, the man who would turn her life upside down. She thought it was the start of her own happy ending, but soon realized she was not in a fairytale with rainbows and butterflies. Instead, they're in a dark fantasy, scary and twisted. When the secrets from their past start unraveling and monsters start chasing them, what if the ends of the links locking them met? Will they be able to free themselves from the chains tied to them?

"When you fall in love with an atypical guy who does not love you back and you try to move on, but no matter how much try, you just can't, will you do everything to make him love you back or will you do everything to forget him? I don't ever want to force someone to love me back, but I can't forget him either. He's not a bad boy. No way. Not in any way. He's just... a little bit awkward." - Tyrese Janelle Hao Dela Cruz

Started: 09/09/2020 Ended: 10/07/2020 Solene Clemente was a typical Civil Engineering student who struggled to put up with her studies. Kung pwede ngang i-bake na lang ang napakaraming itlog sa test papers niya, ginawa niya na. At a young age, she experienced the harsh reality of life-poverty, abuse, and a broken family. But, as someone who could see the bright side of everything, she knew she could make it with only her mother and best friend, Duke Laurence Sanders, whom she secretly loved. Kahit pa naghihirap, basta kasama niya ang ina, kaya niya. Kahit pa madalas niyang hindi maintindihan ang lessons, ayos lang kasi may Duke naman na tuturuan siya. Na kahit gaano kalupit ang tadhana, patuloy siyang lumalaban sa buhay dahil may dalawang taong sumusuporta at nagmamahal sa kanya. She became too dependent on the love they could offer. But little did she know, like the sun she adored, she was destined to be alone.

Started: 10/07/2020 Ended: 11/18/2020 Elora Chin Valencia grew up in a toxic Christian family where she was viewed as the black sheep. Araw-araw ay ipinaparamdam sa kanya ng mundo na wala siyang lugar sa sarili niyang tahanan. She was a consistent dean's lister and an obedient daughter, which left her wondering what she had done so wrong to be disregarded as a speck of dust in the wind. They made her feel like she was just dirt, filling up the empty space. The one who would never have her own safe place. Feeling all of this contributed to her endless suicidal ideations. Baka nga tama sila. Baka nga wala siyang halaga at kailanman ay hindi na sasaya. She almost believed that. She almost held onto that notion. Not until she met the man in his BS Civil Engineering uniform and gorgeous grin, Troy Jefferson Dela Paz. He kissed her forehead, and her loud thoughts were silenced. Her demons calmed down. Her foes were defeated. For the first time in her life, she had proven her family wrong---a happy Elora Chin was possible. She was loved and well-taken care of. Troy embraced her sharp parts, not minding the wounds he might get. But fate had a lot of cruel things in store for her. Because when she thought she had reached the peak of happiness, she found myself drowning alone in the ocean she now called home, alone in her shame, alone with the waves she couldn't tame.
