In a glittering prom night filled with laughter and music, Agatha shares one last dance with her best friend Ezekiel-the boy she once defended from bullies, who became her constant companion through playful insults and unbreakable loyalty.
But when Ezekiel whispers that he's moving to Toronto next month, their world begins to crumble. Through tears and forced smiles, they make a promise to never forget each other, not knowing that this night would be their final goodbye.
Three years later, Agatha still dreams of that night-the night before Ezekiel left without warning, and the month before he lost his battle with stage 4 brain cancer. As a nursing student now, she carries his last letter close to her heart, along with the painful truth she never saw coming: that his final favor wasn't just about remembering him, but about letting him protect her one last time by hiding his illness.
A bittersweet tale of friendship, unspoken feelings, and promises that transcend even death itself-where the ugliest insults masked the most beautiful love, and where "Agathang pangit" was actually his sweetest endearment all along.
