Lalapit s'ya, at s'ya namang iiwas palayo-nang ang una naman ang lumayo ay s'ya namang pagpursigi ng isang bumalik sa buhay nito. Mistulang magugulo ang isipan at 'di magkatugma. Marjorie Alaia Bernaldez's life has always been a whirlwind of craziness and unpredictability. Bilang unica hija ng isa sa pinaka-maimpluwensyang tao sa politika, sanay s'yang itinatratong parang prinsesa. Ngunit iba ang lalaking pumukaw ng kan'yang pansin sa lahat. He doesn't seem to like her at all. Salungat sa kan'yang buhay, s'ya ay lumaki sa simpleng pamumuhay na hindi karangyaan. Despite different worlds, their fates intertwine inescapably, defying the odds and drawing them towards each other. They know that seeking solace in each other's arms challenges the cruel world as they know it, yet the ineffable euphoria they share remains an irresistible force, binding them beyond the constraints of the world.
