It's a bar chord for Liam Ramirez whether Leo Quintero's shift from hater to fan is genuine or conceals darker motives─hard to play, so he simply goes along with it.

Once rivals on stage-Liam, the rising vocalist of Euphonyx, and Leo, the bassist of Rhythmix, always chasing second place-their story takes a strange turn when the campus basher suddenly becomes Liam's loudest supporter. Bizarre. But Liam lets it slide, until one fateful sleepover blurs the lines between music and something more.

Rumors explode, whispers grow louder: are they just friends, or simply in denial? And when a scandal after the Battle of the Bands threatens everything, Liam and Leo are left to figure out if their heart is meant to flop... or to bop.

When you are paired with someone who matches your personality and follows the same routine as you, that's how connection and, eventually, love bloom. As per Zern Josh Villarama and Victorino Caiden Flynn, it was the opposite. They could replace the definition of ditto. But despite that, they could not get along. Because Caiden hates gays and Zern proudly lists himself on Caiden's hate list. Their hatred for each other grew like a wildfire, because aside from being neighbors in their university's dormitories, they keep seeing each other everywhere. No matter where they go, fate leads them to the same place at the same time. Can enemies, torn by hate, be drawn happily together in the end? Is it possible for two people who despise each other to fall in love despite the odds? How can they fix the dissonance, when their similarities only fuel their hatred? Can two souls, so alike yet torn apart by bitterness, ever find harmony and turn their conflict into something beautiful, something worth fighting for?
