Isang lalaki na wala pang napapatunayan sa sarili bukod sa mga kalokohang ginawa niya at walang katapusang pagiging pasaway sa kanilang pamilya. Hindi siya nag-iisip sa mga bagay na ginagawa niya bago kumilos; that's why he did something that changed his life.

Kaya sa isang iglap lang ay nagbago ang ikot ng mundong kaniyang gustong galawan. Nagkaroon siya ng bagong katauhan sa mga kasinungaling lumalabas sa kaniyang bibig upang mairaos lang ang sitwasyon niya. Ngunit hanggang kailan niya mapapaniwala ang mga taong nasa paligid niya? Sa mga mababanggit niya, ano dito ang katotohan at ano ang mga kasinungalingan?

C O M P L E T E D bite the bullet (idiom): to endure a painful or difficult situation with courage and determination Hindi nawawala ang ngiti sa kaniyang labi. "I want you to be mine.

"If you refuse to be my partner, my first offer to you is not valid." Napayukom na ako ng palad ko. Sa itsura pa lang niya ay halatang masusunod ang gusto niyang mangyari. I have no other options. I had to bite the bullet and agree to his condition.
