The Senate is in chaos.
The internet is worse.
After accidentally posting a reaction video that sends Filipino TikTok into cardiac arrest, a social media staffer finds herself documenting two unfolding disasters:
1. A political crisis.
2. Whatever the hell is happening with #WinRi.
Featuring:
* Senate walkouts
* quorum battles
* parliamentary procedure
* one very confused senator
* one increasingly alarmed communications team
* several thousand Filipinos with far too much free time
And a TikTok that should have stayed in the drafts.

Sa Likod ng Senado
To the nation, they are just colleagues-two senators working side by side, exchanging formalities and sharing the floor. But behind the polished smiles and calculated speeches, lies a quiet love that has endured years of secrecy, tension, and devotion. They've been together-privately-since 2022. Only a few trusted colleagues know the truth. And the rest of the country? They see nothing but professionalism. In the Senate, everything must be proper. Controlled. Impeccable. But behind the chamber doors, in whispered phone calls, subtle glances, and rare stolen moments, their hearts speak a different language. How do you hold on to a love that the world must never see? How do you protect what's real in a place where almost everything is scripted? Because in the end, their story isn't written in laws or resolutions- It's written in silence, in longing, and in the spaces they share when no one is watching. This is the love that lives... Sa Likod ng Senado.

For ten years, bubbly and hyper-competent secretary Risa Hontiveros has been the only person who can handle her brilliant but notoriously cold CEO boss, Sherwin Gatchalian. Where Sherwin is strict, sharp-tongued, and guarded by a painful past, Risa is charming, smart, and completely unfazed by his impossible demands. Sherwin insists their relationship is strictly professional, but the office dynamic shifts completely when his smooth, charismatic business partner, Antonio "Sonny" Trillanes, tries to sweep Risa off her feet with purple tulips and lunch invitations. As an unspoken, jealous tug-of-war erupts between the two powerful men, the ultimate perfectionist CEO faces his toughest challenge yet: admitting that his most reliable employee is the one distraction he can no longer live without.

Ngunit sa isang mundong nababalot ng ilusyon, alin ba ang tunay at alin ang panaginip?
