Salawahan, two-timer, kaya iniwan siya ng mga babaeng tunay na nagmamahal sa kaniya. Iyan si Stephen Aquino. Nang dahil sa kaniya, muling nagmahal at nasaktan si Beverly. Nang dahil din sa kaniya, nabigo nang husto ang pag-asa ni Sophie na silang dalawa ang magkakatuluyan. Iniwan man siya ng babaeng kaniyang tunay na minamahal ay nangako siya sa kaniyang sarili na hihintayin niyang muli ang pagbabalik nito. Sa pagkaguho ng kaniyamg mundo ay muli siyang aamahon para ayusin ang sarili. Sa kaniyang pag-ahon ay makikilala niya si Candice Peralta, isang misteryosang babae na handang ibigay ang lahat kapalit ng kaniyang pagmamahal. Makikilala rin niya si Apollo Valenzuela, isang gangster leader na hahamon sa kaniyang pagkatao, at maglalagay sa kaniya sa matinding panganib, mailigtas lamang ang buhay ng kaniyang mga kaibigan. Subaybayan ang kaniyang unti-unting pagbabago, at ang iba pang mga kapanapanabik niyang karanasan habang naghihintay sa muling pagbabalik ng kaniyang mahal na si Beverly.
