Alone Together

Tin and Raf meet during a museum tour for students at the National Museum of the Philippines and instantly clash over Spoliarium, sparking a witty exchange. They quickly notice each other's passion for art and a chemistry that hints at more than a casual encounter.

Their attraction grows into a relationship as they share ambitions: Raf dreams of becoming a doctor and Tin aims to be a museum director. Their romance unfolds against a backdrop of art and scholarship.

Tin becomes entangled in a money scandal at her workplace and is helped by Greg Fausto, a coworker who admires her. She ultimately breaks up with Raf when he cannot graduate, ending their relationship.

Raf musters the courage to propose to Tin to prevent losing her, but Tin declines and ends the engagement. The moment marks a painful turning point and foreshadows the long separation to come.

Five years later, Tin attends an awarding ceremony with Greg by her side and unexpectedly reunites with Raf, now a practicing doctor and award recipient. They share a cautious conversation that reveals how their past still lingers.

Raf is summoned to the hospital immediately after their meeting, showing his dedication to patients. He introduces Tin to Aly, his current girlfriend, signaling a complicated triangle and the boundaries that still exist between them.

Tin discusses the possibility of a New York assignment and visiting major museums, revealing her renewed drive. Raf encourages her to pursue it, and they consider Tin leading the project for her company.

In New York City, Tin achieves her business goals and visits the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Raf buys a ticket to join her, and at the Met she meets Alex, a Filipino US-based artist, with whom she discusses his artworks.

After a museum visit, Raf reveals he broke up with Aly and wants to resume their relationship and marry Tin. Torn by loyalty to Greg and concern for others, Tin rejects him and they part ways.

Returning to the Philippines, Tin realizes she is not happy with her current life and breaks up with Greg. She learns that Aly is pregnant with Raf's child, adding complexity to their past.

Tin returns to her alma mater to seek guidance from her favorite professor, Sir Alwyn, and to reflect on her path. Guided by the advice she receives, she rebuilds her life and later lands a museum job after being candid about her past mistake.

Tin seeks Raf out to apologize for being selfish and cowardly, and Raf apologizes for his rash behavior as well. He reveals he is estranged from Aly, and just as they begin to reconnect, he is called away by hospital duties.

Tin attends an awarding ceremony hosted by the National Museum for emerging local artists, including Alex. During the event, Alex thanks Tin for helping her find a life in art and invites her to the stage, marking a warm professional reunion.

Leaving the ceremony, Tin finds Raf waiting outside and they share a tearful hug. The film ends with Tin and Raf together, looking at Spoliarium with Raf's son, symbolizing renewed hope and the enduring bond between art and love.
