Let me begin with saying that this is my first Pinoy drama. So I didn't really go into it with any expectations. But this drama set my bar so high that others are going to have a tough time living up to it.

Story : The first half of this drama is all sweet dreams, beautiful, bright and bubbly. There is nothing new to it. A troublemaking high school senior Elijah, is caught playing a prank. Instead of suspension, he faces the challenge of being present at the school dance that's being taught by another, more serious and 'nerdy' senior, Nikko. Now Nikko is openly gay, loves to dance, and is generally the kindest and sweetest soul! And Eli, although hesitant and rebellious at first, falls totally in love with Nikko!
But like they say, happiness comes with a price. The price we paid for really enjoying the budding romance between Nikko and Eli is the day of the promprosal, when Eli gets to know that Nikko suffers from ALS or Lou Gherig's disease.
Eli is devastated but trying to stand strong for the boy he is falling in love with, he sets out to make all his dreams come true, including an incredible 2nd promprosal and a beautiful prom date done in Nikko's home.

Acting : I know a lot of people may not agree with me, but Raynold Tan is a far better actor than he is given credit for. As a first troubled, and then Ivy League entrant Eli, Raynold really has the gamut of emotions to carry it off. He is rude an irritable at first. But as the story progresses, we see his angst portrayed with great maturity. A lot of people have ended up making him into just a pretty face, but I beg to differ. He really deserves this role and he has done justice to it!
Rabin Josh as Justin is also great. As a friend, as a total confidante and someone who is very much in love with his best friend, is simply superb. He emotes well and is a sweet and pretty foil to Nikko's gregariousness and Eli's toughness.
There are other small, minor characters who carry their bit, but in my opinion, it's Tommy Alejandrino as Nikko who is the whole and soul of this series. He has been given a role of a lifetime and he surpasses every expectation and how! As the bright, cheerful and always smiling Nikko at first and then the ill, yet still trying to live his best Nikko in the second half, Tommy has really touched my heart and I am pretty sure I am going to be watching all his shows as and when they come up.

Music : While not startling or loud, the music in this show fits well into the series as a whole and the dances have been choreographed well. I loved it every time Eli and Nikko danced. It felt like they were floating away... :)

Re-watch value : very very high, but I am not really good with sad stories, and this one is definitely in the same league as History 3 Make Our Days Count. So those who are okay with those kinds of stories, you will enjoy yourself for sure.

Recommendation : 10 on 10... Go ahead and watch it at least once please :)
