When two hearts collide, hatred and admiration blur into something neither can control. What starts as shallow-like-hatred, slowly twists into obsession. Like, one longing to claim, the other is determined to resist.
In this push and pull, Ricole Collet Estaris, a Marine Transportation student turned Nursing major, finds himself entangled with Artini Jalil Forrosuello, a quiet pre-service teacher who guards his heart fiercely.
Both are not yet ready to venture out a story of conflict, passion, and the fine line between love and defiance. But when resistance turns into obsession, who will surrender first?
Falling for their opponent's outside spiker isn't a part of rookie libero Kaizen Reyes' plan. But when Kai discovers that Roen Alejo has liked him for so long, maybe receiving that facial hit from him before isn't that bad after all.
