A hotel heiress returning home...
A rising football star ready to make a name for himself...
Both once have loved and lost. Both have experienced pain too deep to forget.
As their paths cross the second time, will they be brave enough to see what...

"You've gotta see her in person, man. She looks so different." Kausap ko si Marco na nakaupo sa dulong bahagi ng rooftop swimming pool ng building namin.He came over as soon as I finished practice today. He brought pizza and drinks and for what- according to him- is a spill-the-deets session. Daig pa ata si Boy Abunda kung maka-interrogate.
"Different, how?" Pag-uusisa n'ya.
"I dunno. I mean, syempre mas lalong gumanda...hmm, but like...she's more confident. Very strong. The way she looked at me, parang she could just snap a finger and I'd vanish right there and then. Ewan ko ba. Hindi ko maexplain. I guess, it's like...she's more powerful."
Two days after the interview, Kisses' coming back is the talk of the town. Ako naman, balik football training. We train five days a week with a couple of days break hangang sa final game that's scheduled 2 weeks from now. Pero, the woman is making her presence known. The Business Inquirer did a full spread feature on her and her hotels; social media is snapping every sightings of her, and the online articles are milking everything from that interview. I just finished 5 laps and decide to join Marco.

"Really? Man, I wish I was there. Buti kinausap ka pa n'ya pagkatapos nung nangyari sa inyo." he teased, but also knowing there's some truth in what he's saying. Alam ko, gusto nya lang talaga akong magkwento.
"Well, parang okay na man s'ya." I remember the look on her face when she saw me and how deftly she concealed it in a snap. "She acted so nonchalantly about the whole thing. Mukhang wala ngang any sign of bitterness eh. She looks so confident, so classy, tapos pag nag-English medyo meron pa nga siyang konting British accent eh. Daig pa'ko. "
"Haha. Talaga? Now I'm excited to see her. Did she ask about me?" Nakangising sabi ni Marco. Minsan tlaga, sumisingit pa rin tlaga 'tong kaibigan ko. I know, you know about their 'history' too, but that's all it was. History. She got over him, he's too late, but they remained friends.
