Di Politeknik Melaka Taman Malim, Adam, Mei Lin, dan Ranjit-tiga pelajar dari latar belakang yang berbeza-dipertemukan secara kebetulan. Adam, seorang anak kampung yang memegang teguh nilai keluarga; Mei Lin, gadis bandar yang tegas dan berprinsip; dan Ranjit, si periang yang sering menjadi pencetus tawa, tidak pernah menyangka hidup mereka akan bertaut erat.
Di tengah-tengah tugas akademik, persaingan, dan tekanan peribadi, mereka mula menemui kekuatan dalam persahabatan yang unik. Mereka belajar, tertawa, dan menangis bersama, namun bukan tanpa cabaran. Salah faham dan prasangka muncul di sana sini, mengetuk ketahanan hati mereka. Ketika Adam mula menyimpan perasaan terhadap Mei Lin, perbezaan budaya menjadi cabaran yang mendalam, dan Ranjit pula bergelut mencari makna sebenar persahabatan dalam hubungan mereka bertiga.
Dalam perjalanan yang penuh liku ini, ketiga-tiga mereka belajar erti perpaduan sebenar-bukan sekadar toleransi, tetapi penerimaan dan penghargaan tulus terhadap perbezaan masing-masing. Akhirnya, saat mereka melangkah keluar dari Politeknik Melaka Taman Malim, mereka bukan sahaja bergelar graduan, tetapi membawa kenangan dan ikatan yang tak tergoyahkan. Mereka melangkah ke dunia nyata dengan janji untuk menjadi penggerak perpaduan, mengharungi masa depan yang penuh harapan dan warna, dengan hati yang lebih kaya dan minda yang terbuka.

Excerpt:
I looked up and stared. My reflection looked back at me in the mirror of the dark room. My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow.
Glowing eyes were not normal.
Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal.
What was I then? For that, I had no answer
