Having enhanced senses cannot help one earn a living. A useless special ability--or at least, that's what Shia Sheridan believes. But when she is caught for a crime she did not commit, this useless ability saves her, leading her to enroll in Titan Academy, the very place she hates with a passion. *** Titan Academy is an esteemed school where students train to improve their special abilities. However, for seventeen-year-old village girl Shia Sheridan, it's nothing more than a despicable place where wealth speaks the loudest. Fate plays a joke on her when her best friend, Lucas, becomes part of a crime committed within the academy, and owning that crime in his stead leads Shia to the headmaster and principal, who then offers her a proposal she dare not refuse--in exchange for her freedom, she must become one of the special group of students joining the annual survival game called Linus Cup. Now, not only is she fighting for a spot she did not want in the very academy she hated, but also for her dear life as well. Can Shia survive till the end?

[MAKE DUOLOGY #2] When it comes to love, there are no boundaries. You can love your past back when you feel like it. Masama na bang magmahal ng iisang tao lang? Kung mahal mo siya, so what? Hindi tanga ang mga taong nagtatake risk para magbigay ng second chance kahit nasasaktan na. In fact, sila 'yung masasabi mong nagmamahal ng totoo dahil kahit natatakot ay nagawa nilang sumugal ulit.

"Damn you Hannah! Bakit kailangang ikaw pa?" hirap na hirap niyang sabi habang kipkip ang mga kamay ko para hindi ako makagalaw. Tinitigan ko siya. "Tanong ko rin yan dati Adam, bakit kailangang ikaw pa? Wala ka namang ginawa kung hindi ang magsinungaling. Madaya kang maglaro Adam, but guess what. I already learned my lesson. I will never believe in any word that you will say. Never." - Alhannah Andrea Montreal

"Kahit kailan hindi mo ako tiningnan bilang ako. Hindi mo ako tinuring na asawa dahil ibang babae ang nasa isip mo pag tayo yung magkasama. Sa bawat pagsabi mo ng mahal kita, sa bawat yakap mo at halik, siya ang nasa isip mo at hindi ako. Minahal mo ako hindi dahil sa mahal mo ako, minahal mo ako dahil binubuhay mo ang kapatid ko sa katauhan ko." - Savannah Andrade

We understand how dangerous a mask can be, we become what we pretend to be. The mask becomes our own skin, until we are consumed by the lies and the pretendings. But I guess it can't be helped. No one will love you unless you wear a mask on. No one will accept you unless you become the person they wanted you to be. No one will love you for who you are. No one will look at you without your mask. No one. Not even one. However, love.. the most powerful thing in the world, is the only one who can reveal the face behind the mask. Love is the only way to be freed. Love is the only acceptance you can get. Too bad I don't believe in love. And I would rather forever wear a mask.

Sa school

Sometimes, what you are most afraid of doing is the best thing that will set you free. #BSS6
