"Huwag kang tutungo sa lugar na ipinagbabawal kung ayaw mong mabugkot ka."


     He knows his lola is talking about that place again, Ilawod, isang bahagi sa magubat na parte ng malawak na lupaing pagmamay-ari ng pamilya.


     Ahgdon Arbuella is a painter and professor teaching arts and humanities, firm on his beliefs and standards. He got broken upon finding out his ex na nangakong babalikan siya after passing the board exam, got married. He can't believe that a successful and good looking man like him ay kaya nitong ipagpalit. Mataas ang tingin niya sa sarili given those facts.


     Nagbakasyon siya sa kanilang probinsiya to heal and find an inspiration para sa susunod na ipipinta at iyon pala ang magiging dahilan para masira ang kanyang paniniwala. 


     Isinawalang bahala niya ang mahigpit na bilin ng lola at tinungo ang magubat na parte and got lost. He heard a girl screaming his name but it was too late.


     "Maligayang pagdating sa Ilawod. Ang mundo kung saan mabubuhay ka hanggat matapang ka."


     Nung marinig niya ang mga katagang iyon, dapat alam na niyang kapahamakan ang ibig sabihin noon. Pagkasira ng perpektong buhay at pagkatao niya. 


     Paano siya lalabas sa mundong pinasok kung hindi naman pala siya matapang gaya ng kanyang inaasahan sa sarili.


     Now he needs saving, at nakita niya iyon sa pares ng mga matang  pagmamay-ari ng isang estrangherong nasa ibat-ibang pagkatao.

14 parts Ongoing
When Franco moved to Manila for college, he told himself that he'll experience everything there is to experience. And he did. His first year could be considered as... scandalous, to say the least. So when his sophomore year came, he promised himself that he'll do better para na rin sa future niya. He intended to join this prestigious organization that would surely help his career in the future. When Franco joined AIESEC, he knew his life would change... little did he know, magbabago talaga ang buhay niya nang makilala niya si Joaquin Lorenzo Santillan-the perfect student who's beloved by everyone. Franco was in awe. Every where Joaquin goes, his presence commanded respect. His presence was magnetic, his smile effortless, his charm undeniable. And he was nice-so nice that Franco unknowingly followed him around, like he was orbiting around Joaquin's magnetic presence, eager for him to be noticed. Akala ni Franco ay okay ang lahat. Naka-pasok na siya sa org. Mukhang magiging kaibigan niya na si Joaquin. But one night, few beers after, his world seemingly collapsed when Joaquin stared him in the eye and said, "In case there's any confusion, let me make it clear-I'm not gay." Franco's world tilted on its axis, crumbling in an instant. Now, his mission was simple: survival. Avoid Joaquin at all costs. Erase the memory of that moment, of those eyes, of the touch that seemed to linger impossibly on his skin. Little did he know, some marks aren't so easily erased.
