Don't Want to Lose You

Dawson Emmanuel Cabalerro-known as Dos to his friends-was a promising legal management student with a hidden passion for music. His high school sweetheart, Anne Josephine Barbara Mercado, or Barbie was the picture of academic and social perfection. Their nine-month relationship was the envy of many until it abruptly ended in a storm of misunderstanding and jealousy.

When Dos heard rumors about Barbie and a mysterious figure named Mikael, he was consumed by anger and heartbreak, believing she had betrayed him. Barbie, shocked and confused by the sudden accusations, could not convince Dos of her innocence. The truth was, Mikael was merely a family friend she was asked to show around. But the damage was done. Their breakup left them both shattered and on self-destructive paths.

Dos, once a devoted boyfriend, turned into a notorious playboy, losing himself in fleeting pleasures with a string of girls. Barbie, the epitome of grace and intellect, transformed into a wild partygoer, drowning her sorrows in beer and cigarettes. Her grades plummeted, pulling her down from the top of the academic ladder.

Two years later, their worlds collide once more. Barbie, now a third-year Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Film Studies student struggling to regain her academic standing, is given a lifeline-a special project to create a documentary on Dos's illustrious parents, Ronaldo and Amanda Caballero. As she steps back into Dos's life, the buried emotions and unresolved tension between them resurface.

In the midst of filming, Barbie and Dos are forced to confront their past, their misconceptions, and the undeniable spark that still simmers between them. Can they mend their broken hearts and overcome the shadows of their past, or will the pain of their former love story keep them apart forever?
