Sylleane "Ally" Avery Basilio has always been a good child to her parents. She was an academic achiever. She bagged numerous awards and brought home medals to prove her worth to her family, but she still felt her achievements were useless.
One summer, she met her older brother's friends and spent a whole week with them. Throughout their stay in their province, she came to realize she had had enough of her boring life, one that required her mother's approval and validation in her every move.
She wanted to be treated like a grown-up. She liked the idea of experiencing new things. She became so eager for the life out there that awaits her, so she explored the moment she stepped into college.
She met new people, found a few good friends, and got to know Brhett "Jet" Judson Samonte better, one of her Kuya's friends who has always been head over heels for her...
And for the first time, she felt free. With him, she didn't have to prove that she could do things by herself. She didn't have to constantly explain herself because he understood her, even between the lines.
