|'Highschool Romcom🏫'|

Rhena never thought she'd see Darrel James Reyes again, the boy who made her childhood a battlefield. From stolen snacks to endless arguments about who was better at everything, their rivalry was legendary. But after years of living in the U.S., Rhena is back-and so is Darrel, now taller, more confident, and still annoyingly smug.

As their paths cross once again, the bickering quickly reignites, but something feels different this time. Beneath the sarcastic remarks and stubborn glares, Rhena begins to notice moments of kindness, stolen glances, and a strange flutter in her chest whenever Darrel is near. Could the boy she once called her enemy be something more?
