"I know you can't resist me, there's nothing wrong with admitting it." _ Ella Maureen Perez believed that life, like architecture, required a solid foundation-one that didn't crumble under the weight of a song. When she walked away from Kaspian years ago, she thought she was burying a youthful, bleeding passion that had no place in her blueprints. But Kaspian Knight Galvez is no longer just the boy with a guitar in a messy dorm room; he is the frontman of The Last eXiT, a king in a world of spotlights who has come back to claim his muse. He was her greatest 'what if,' and he has no intention of playing a solo this time. Yet, in the quiet spaces of her life stands James Arden Cruz-the soft-spoken heir who has memorized every line of her story since they were in high school. He isn't a memory; he is a constant. With Kaspian finally out of the picture, James sees the cracks in Ella's fortress not as a sign of weakness, but as his second chance to finally walk through the door. Now, Ella is trapped between a past that refuses to stay buried and a future that is patiently waiting to be built. One is a storm of melodies that threatens to tear her down, and the other is a steady, silent promise she isn't sure she's ready to keep. In the world of Unstructured Melodies, how do you choose between the man who broke your heart and the man who spent a lifetime waiting to mend it? ____ DATE STARTED: March 29, 2026 DATE ENDED: *WRITTEN IN TAGLISH

Rule #1: Never let your mascara run. Rule #2: Always win the dare. Rule #3: Never admit you're looking for a way out of this universe. At Ateneo de Davao, everyone knows Elara Vance Ruiz. She's the girl with the vintage Patek on her wrist, a designer bag for every mood, and a social calendar that runs the campus. She doesn't do "physics"-she does power plays and perfectly curated Instagram feeds. But behind the gloss, Elara is chasing a ghost. Specifically, the version of her parents that exists in a world where a car crash never happened. Enter Josh Kael Morales. He's the campus's "Quiet King"-a physics prodigy so brilliant he's basically a local myth, and so reclusive he makes a hermit look social. He doesn't have time for the "Princess," and he definitely doesn't have time for her "unscientific" obsession with the multiverse. When a drunken dare forces Elara to make Josh fall in love with her by the end of the semester, she thinks she's hit the jackpot. He's her ticket to the math she needs to find her parents. But as she trades her heels for library late-nighters and her ego for equations, the lines begin to blur. She came for a portal to another world. She might just stay for the boy who's making this one bearable. What if the person you're looking for is in another world... but the person you need is standing right in front of you? *** WRITTEN IN FILIPINO/ENGLISH/DAVAOEÑO DATE STARTED: FEB. 1, 2026 DATE ENDED:
