writing in her notebook.

JOSH:
Guys, may group project tayo!

AVA:
Again? Nakakapagod na.

LARA:
At least sama-sama tayo.

Ken suddenly looks at Mia.

KEN:
Mia, ikaw na gumawa ng presentation. Magaling ka naman di ba?

MIA:
Ako lang?

AVA:
Relax. Tutulungan ka naman namin.

Everyone laughs lightly. Mia forces a smile.


MIA:
Okay...

Mr. Reyes enters.

MR. REYES:
Good afternoon, class. Your project will be presented tomorrow.

Everyone reacts.

JOSH:
Tomorrow?!

They laugh.

SCENE 2 – HALLWAY

The group walks together. Mia notices that everyone is discussing the project
except her.

MIA:
Guys, kailan tayo mag-meeting?

AVA:
Later na. Send mo na lang sa group chat.

MIA:
Pero—

KEN:
Kaya mo na 'yan.

They walk away.

Lara stays behind.

LARA:
Mia, okay ka lang?

MIA:
Oo. Sanay naman ako.

LARA:
Hindi mo kailangang gawin lahat.

MIA:
Ayoko lang maging dahilan kung bakit hindi tayo matapos.
SCENE 3 – CLASSROOM, AFTER SCHOOL

Mia is alone, working on the project.

Her phone vibrates.

MESSAGE FROM AVA:


"Nasaan na yung project?"

Mia looks at the time.

MIA:
Grabe...

Another message appears.

MESSAGE FROM KEN:


"Dapat matapos mo na."

Mia puts her phone down and continues working.

Suddenly, the lights flicker.

MIA:
Hello?

She looks around.

Her phone vibrates again.

UNKNOWN NUMBER:
"Mia, don't trust them."

Mia freezes.

SCENE 4 – THE NEXT MORNING

Mia arrives at school. She immediately approaches Lara.

MIA:
Lara...

LARA:
What's wrong?

Mia shows her phone.


LARA:
Sino nag-send nito?

MIA:
Hindi ko alam.

LARA:
Baka prank lang.

MIA:
Pero paano niya alam na mag-isa ako kagabi?

They look at each other nervously.

SCENE 5 – CLASSROOM

Mr. Reyes asks for the project.

MR. REYES:
Group One, ready?

Mia stands.

MIA:
Sir... actually, ako po halos gumawa ng project.

The room becomes quiet.

AVA:
Ano?!

KEN:
Mia, bakit mo sinasabi 'yan?

MIA:
Kasi totoo naman.

JOSH:
Wait. Hindi ba sabi natin tutulungan ka namin?

MIA:
Kailan?

Silence.

Mr. Reyes looks at the group.


MR. REYES:
Is this true?

Lara raises her hand.

LARA:
Sir, nakita ko po kung paano siya naiwan mag-isa kagabi.

Everyone becomes quiet.

SCENE 6 – THE TRUTH

Mr. Reyes asks everyone to stay after class.

MR. REYES:
A project isn't just about getting a good grade. It's about responsibility.

AVA:
Sorry, Mia.

KEN:
Hindi namin dapat pinasa lahat sa'yo.

JOSH:
Oo. Kasalanan din namin.

Mia looks at them.

MIA:
Hindi naman ako galit. Gusto ko lang sana na pakinggan niyo ako.

Lara smiles.

LARA:
At least ngayon, alam na natin.

Suddenly, Mia's phone vibrates.

Everyone looks at it.

UNKNOWN NUMBER:
"Good choice."

They stare at each other.

JOSH:
Okay... sino naman 'yan?
Everyone looks confused.

The screen suddenly goes black.

SCENE 7 – ENDING

The students work together on the project.

Quick shots show everyone helping: Josh making the poster, Ava
researching, Ken editing, Lara organizing, and Mia presenting.

NARRATOR:
Sometimes, we don't realize that our choices affect the people around us.

The group finishes their project.

NARRATOR:
A small decision can hurt someone—or it can be the reason they feel heard.

The camera slowly moves toward Mia's phone.

One final message appears:

UNKNOWN NUMBER:
"Remember: kindness is always a choice."

FADE TO BLACK.
