(After High Series # 3) Lily Delphine Borromeo came to UPLB to build a life that was entirely hers-until Sandro Cantavieja decided to follow her there. She never questioned why her childhood friend chose the same university instead of staying in Seattle. She never asked why he looked at her like that. She was too busy pretending they were just friends. But some truths refuse to stay buried, and some feelings become impossible to ignore. Lily has spent her whole life avoiding complications, taking the safe path, running from anything that might disrupt the carefully constructed world she's built. Sandro has spent years being patient, waiting for her to stop running. When their fragile balance finally shatters, Lily learns that hiding from problems doesn't make them disappear-it makes them explode. And sometimes the thing you're most afraid of losing is the only thing worth fighting for.

Kairos Levi Soledad de Merced was chaos and wildness altogether. A lover of the world and all the pleasures it has to offer. Love and commitment? That never existed in his vocabulary. He was the type to give you the highs and all the best things in life, leaving you wanting more, only to be forgotten by him the next day. Chasing the wild tide of life and living without inhibitions was his way of life. He prefers all things physical and casual. He wants his life to be simple, easy, and hot- the same way he wants his woman to be. Ma. Anisa Sta Ines is smart, confident, strong-willed.... and smart again. Matalino, matapang, magaling. Pero hindi maganda. All her life, she has been nothing but an extra in everyone's story. The wingman, the third wheel, and the go-to person for everyone interested in her friends. She knew she was never meant to be chosen, never meant to be pursued. She was the calm of a Wednesday morning; The stability that people usually take for granted. But her stability and peace ceased to exist when Kairos rejected her love letter in front of the whole Eunthastica. Not because he rejected her in front of the whole school. But because the letter wasn't for him, it was supposed to be for Iñigo, his cousin. ---- Started: June 2025 Completed: September 2025
