In the Rearview

What happens when you're forced to share a car ride with an old crush you never thought you'd see again?

Iris Soriano and Leo de Guzman have barely seen each other since graduating university 10 years ago. They were never really close. Iris was always shy, quiet, and descending into some sort of anxiety spiral. Meanwhile, Leo was the exact opposite: funny, loud, a little too friendly.

So when they both end up attending their mutual friends' destination wedding in Baguio and find themselves on an unexpected road trip back to Manila, things start off pretty awkward. Well, until they start opening up and the polite small talk goes deeper into laughter, shared memories, and late-night conversations about growing up, letting go, and all the ways they've changed (or haven't). Not to mention old feelings they thought they left behind.

But they each have their own lives now. They know relationships aren't as simple as they were when they were younger. Reconnecting wasn't part of the plan. Was this journey just about confronting the past... or is there something new waiting at the end of the road?
