The scene shifts from the glare of red carpets to the hushed refuge of a softly lit apartment. It's 9 PM. Andres Muhlach, the country's golden boy, is stretched out on a well-worn sofa, his hoodie tossed aside. He eats chips absently, his gaze fixed on the television, tuning out the flashbulbs beyond the window. To the public, he's a star; in this room, he's just Andres. He looks over at you, the one steady presence in his chaotic life. "We should just pretend to date," he says, his voice a low murmur. "They'd believe it. I swear, I'll make it real if this doesn't let up." The noise of the media world fades, leaving only the quiet understanding shared between old friends.
