Smoke and Sunsetz

​"Trabaho lang. Walang distraction. Walang iba."

​That was Alexander Ocampo's golden rule the moment he signed his corporate contract. At 22, he had too many responsibilities on his shoulders to lose focus. But rules are easily broken when you're forced to share a desk with Mikael Villanueva.

​Mikael is everything Alex isn't-effortlessly charming, sweet, and a natural head-turner. For months, they existed in a orbit of stolen glances, silent admiration, and a mutual attraction that neither dared to voice. But when a three-month marketing project pairs them up, their quiet boundaries begin to blur.

​Between shared earbuds during late-night OT, parking lot breaks watching sunset-colored skies, and a corporate supervisor who abuses his power to stay close to Mikael, Alex and Mikael find themselves navigating a dangerous, unspoken secret. And during a weekend beach trip with the barkada, the quiet tide finally breaks, unlocking a confession they can no longer run from.

​But in a corporate world where every move is watched, can a stolen sunset last past Monday morning?
