It's just another collection of shorts that tackle about mundane things - life, love and everything else in between.

Misunderstood, mistreated and always in trouble, Reina is no ordinary girl from the bunch of foolish and rebellious kids trying to find her true self and the right place for her existence. She kept her armor of arrogance and belligerence knowing that no one can understand her. No one wants to listen and no one would want to give a damn. She is so used to that. Nasanay na siyang mag-isa at laging iniiwan kaya naman naging matigas na ang puso at naging manhid na mula sa sakit ng kahapon niya at patuloy na nararanasang pagtrato mula sa iba. Tanggap na niyang walang kayang tumagal sa kanya at ang nakakalungkot ay parati iyong ipinamumukha ng tadhana kaya naman sa panibagong paglipat niya sa San Lazarrus Jesuit Academia, hindi niya na inaasam na magbabago ang takbo ng buhay niya at hindi na niya tinangka pang umasa. Ngunit tila biro talaga ng tadhana nang makilala niya ang isang kaibigan sa katauhan ni Miles na animo'y shock absorber ng lahat ng hanash niya sa buhay. Sa di inaasahang pagkakataon, makakatagpo siya ng isang karamay, kaibigan at pamilya sa kabila ng mga kakulangan niya at pighati na ipinaranas sa kanya ng mundo. Cover photo edited.

Candid was never meant to be understood. She grew up hiding more than her face. Always hidden behind a mask and scarf, she became the kind of girl people feared without knowing why-quiet, cold, and dangerously unreadable. Some called her freak. Others called her broken. But no one noticed how carefully she played the role everyone expected from her. Because the weakest-looking people are often the hardest to destroy. While the world sees an isolated girl drowning in silence, Candid secretly lives between two extremes: saving lives with gentle hands while carrying something dark enough to ruin them all. Then Blaze Anthony enters her life-the ruthless and manipulative King of the ELITES. A boy made of wildfire and pride. The type of person who turns destruction into entertainment. He tried to solve her mystery, only to get trapped in it. What started as hatred slowly became obsession. Every argument felt dangerous. Every touch felt like a mistake. And somewhere between chaos and comfort, they became the very thing capable of destroying each other. But loving Candid was like holding onto a person made of shattered memories. There were nights she would stare at her own reflection as if meeting a stranger. Nights where certain scars felt older than the stories attached to them. And no matter how many times she tried to bury the past, something inside her kept whispering that she had already survived things her mind refused to remember. Some love stories heal people. Theirs only uncovered what should have stayed forgotten-and destined to destroy.
