Mikha Lim is the art world's "Enfant Terrible", a reclusive, abrasive genius known for her chaotic, vibrant, and heartbreaking abstract portraits. Every single one of her million-dollar paintings features the silhouette of the same woman, but the face is always obscured, blurred, or turned away.
Aiah Arceta is a calm, meticulous museum curator who has just returned to Manila after five years in Florence. She has been hired to curate the biggest retrospective of the decade: The Lim Collection.

Palayo Sa Mundo
Mikha Lim is an experienced long-haul commercial pilot easily recognized by her striking red hair. Born and raised in New Zealand to Filipino parents originally from Cebu and Bicol, she speaks mostly English peppered with a charmingly broken, tiny amount of Tagalog. Despite being an introvert, she radiates a humorous, golden-retriever energy that easily puts those around her at ease. Feeling that her quiet life in New Zealand had become entirely too boring, Mikha packed up her life and migrated to the Philippines, actively seeking the beautiful, unpredictable chaos she believes is waiting for her in Manila. Aiah Arceta is the eldest member and visual of the nation's famous girl group, Hiraya. Born and raised in Lapu-Lapu, Cebu, she is deeply grounded by her strong family support system, which includes her parents, her married brother, and her beloved one-year-old niece, Tiara. To the public, Aiah is known for her bright, versatile, and mature demeanor, consistently bringing a gentle peace and comfort to her group. Behind closed doors, however, she is a thoughtful, down-to-earth, and incredibly hardworking woman who quietly battles the intense stress and anxiety that comes with the massive demands of idol fame, desperately searching for a safe haven where she can just be Maraiah.

CALM IN CHAOS
Madison is chaos-wild, and self-destructive, carrying the weight of a painful past and a deep resentment toward her father. She drowns her anger in bars, drinks, and smokes, hiding her brilliance behind a reckless smile. Antonia is her opposite-gentle, calm, and full of quiet charm. She radiates kindness and cheer, with a steady heart that never wavers. When their worlds collide, Antonia doesn't try to fix Madison-she simply stays. And for the first time, Madison feels seen, not judged. In the noise of Madison's storm, Antonia becomes her calm. And in Antonia's quiet world, Madison brings a spark. Together, they learn that love doesn't always arrive gently-but it can heal, even in the chaos.

The Spring in Winter
Mikha Lim is a 21 year-old architecture student and former figure skating prodigy known famously as "The Technician" for her mathematical precision and flawless, albeit emotionless, execution on the ice. Currently working as a Zamboni operator to stay adjacent to the sport without participating in it, she is a person defined by structure, logic, and a deep desire for silence and order. She views the world through the lens of physics and calculations, preferring the safety of solitude over the unpredictability of human connection, making her the stoic, grounded "Winter" who provides the stability her partner needs. Aiah Arceta is a 22 year-old communications student and a vibrant, free-spirited pairs skater who prioritizes emotional storytelling and artistic expression over technical perfection. Known for her infectious energy, playful "conyo" way of speaking, and relentless persistence, she is the living embodiment of "Spring", warm, colorful, chaotic, and impossible to ignore. She acts as the disruptive catalyst in Mikha's life, dragging the former prodigy back onto the ice with a mix of charm and sheer stubbornness, serving as the fearless "Flyer" who trusts implicitly that she will always be caught.Complete
