"The one who got lost, cannot go back. Once you enter the territory, you need to play or...you need to pay."

Si Via Montelibano, 24, owner ng Custard Corner Bakeshop. Motto niya: _"Kapag palpak ang araw mo, mag-bake ka."_ Kaso palpak pati buhay niya - laging tumatagilid yung cake, laging delayed ang bayad, at laging single. Hanggang isang araw, pumasok sa bakeshop niya si Rafi Esquivel. Architect. Guwapo. Pawis na pawis. At may dalang gulo. _"Miss, emergency! Kailangan ko ng girlfriend. Fake lang. 3 hours. Babayaran kita."_ Ang rason? Kailangan niyang magpanggap na may jowa sa harap ng nanay niya sa loob ng 20 minutes, or else ipapakasal siya sa anak ng ka-bingo ni Mama. Ang kondisyon ni Via: _"Ayusin mo 'tong tumatagilid kong wedding cake in 10 minutes, sasama ako. Pag hindi, ililibing kita kasama ng red velvet ko."_ At dahil architect si Rafi, trabaho niya talagang magpantay ng mga bagay na babagsak - kasama na yata ang buhay ni Via. Isang fake date na naging fake relationship at isang tanong: paano kung yung tumatagilid na cake... hindi lang pala yung dessert? Dahil minsan, ang sikreto sa perfect na cake at perfect na love life ay pareho lang: kailangan mo ng tamang ka-partner para hindi bumagsak. ---- Note: 📍General Copyright Disclaimer : "All rights reserved.

FILIPINO: Sa isang planadong hiking trip, limang magkakaibigan ang nagtungo sa isang liblib at misteryosong bundok na bihirang pinupuntahan ng mga tao. Sa simula, tila isa lamang itong simpleng pakikipagsapalaran-hanggang sa mapansin nilang unti-unting naglalaho ang landas na kanilang tinatahak. Habang sila'y papalalim nang papalalim sa loob ng kagubatan, nagiging kakaiba ang paligid. Ang mga puno ay tila gumagalaw, ang oras ay parang bumabagal, at ang bawat hakbang ay nagdadala sa kanila sa isang lugar na hindi na pamilyar-kahit pa dapat ay pabalik na sila. May lihim ang bundok.

Makakabalik pa kaya sila... o tuluyan na silang mawawala? ENGLISH: On a planned hiking trip, five friends venture into a remote and mysterious mountain rarely visited by others.

The trees seem to move, time appears to slow down, and every step leads them to a place that no longer feels familiar-even when they should already be heading back. The mountain holds a secret.

Amid fear, doubt, and the unraveling of their bond, they are forced to confront a terrifying truth: the real danger is not just the vanishing trail-but what awaits them at the end of it. Will they make it back... or will they be lost forever?
