Briohny Yngrid Cassandra P. Herrera had never liked Edgardo Iñavo R. Villaraza. He was the opposite of the things she looked for a guy. Walong taon ang tanda niya rito. Isip-bata. Sobrang iyakin. Seloso. Kaya nang maghayag ito ng pag-ibig 'kuno' nito sa kanya, walang kaabog-abog na agad niya itong binasted. Naging paulit-ulit iyon dahil hindi ito marunong tumanggap ng pagtanggi. Makalipas ang ilang taong ay muling nagkrus ang kanilang landas. Just as she thought he had realized what he felt for her back then was petty, she was wrong. Dahil ipinaglayo man sila ng panahon, hindi man lamang natinag ang lalaki sa paniniwala nitong pag-ibig ang nadama at nadarama nito para sa kanya. She needed to put a stop on that. But maybe the heavens was playing with her. Their lives got entangled again and she had no idea how to unravel hers from his. She was so sure she would never, ever like the youngest son of the Villarazas. But why did suddenly everything get so messed up? She lived most of her life without him. But thinking of him out of her life once again, why did it seem like it was harder to live?
