At Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology, dreams burn brighter than the city lights-and for Sunder Mendez, that light is The Blaze, the campus publication he's longed to be part of. But behind his quiet smile and polished words lies a truth he's been running from-a life carefully hidden beneath layers of lies and longing.
Rejected at first, Sunder refuses to fade into the background. His persistence earns him an unexpected chance: an internship as a photojournalist and sports writer. What he doesn't expect, however, is Herald Hiro Lacandoza-the enigmatic captain of the NEUST Phoenix sepak takraw team whose calm confidence and untold stories pull Sunder into a world far different from his own.
When Sunder is tasked to create a documentary about Herald's life, their paths intertwine beyond the lens-unveiling unspoken truths, quiet admiration, and emotions neither of them fully understands. As the lines blur between passion and profession, both young men must face what lies beneath their crafted images: the cost of honesty, the ache of connection, and the courage it takes to love in color.

Love Under Carolyn's Dormitory
Since the founding of Dhalia University, a magical rumor has persisted: if a couple enters the university together, they are destined to live happily ever after. For Romeo Mercado, however, Dhalia U feels like an unreachable dream. After failing the entrance exam twice, he's kicked out by his parents and sent to live with his grandmother-only to find that she's gone off on a world tour, leaving him in charge of her now-converted girls' dormitory. To make matters worse, his awkward first impression leads to a string of misunderstandings with the five eccentric tenants: the cute yet violent Sandra "Sandy" Alvarez, the cheeky and opportunistic Claudia "Claudy" Dela Cruz, the quiet and mysterious Vanessa Evans, the no-nonsense Brianna Dominguez, and the chaotic troublemaker Naomi Lynn. As Romeo juggles daily life as the dorm's reluctant manager, he remains focused on his goal-to pass the entrance exam and get into Dhalia U, all in hopes of fulfilling a promise he made to his childhood sweetheart fifteen years ago. He doesn't remember her name, only the warmth of that moment. But maybe, just maybe, he'll meet her again-and maybe she's been closer than he ever imagined.
