"POVERTY IS NOT HINDRANCE TO SUCCESS!" Sigaw ni Islanda bilang panimula niya sa sinalihang barangay beauty pageant. Iyon ang katagang memoryado na halos 7.2 Billion na populasyon sa mundo. Ginamit na sa slam/autograph book, naisulat na ng maraming sikat na personalidad at sinigaw na ng mga bakla sa mga contests. But to Isla, she hold those words dear to her heart. A girl with a BIG DREAM.. yet small height, namulat si Islanda Macatuto na salat sa pamumuhay. Dapat siya maging maangas, maliksi.. --- mapanuri, mapagmatyag, mapangahas, Matangla--- ehem.. Matigas ang ulo niya pero madiskarte. Living alone, struggling almost every day of her life, nanatili pa rin siya matatag at hinaharap ang kinabukasan na taas-noo. Lumaki man siyang walang-wala, di pa rin pumasok sa utak niya ang gumawa ng masasamang bagay. Kasi naniniwala siyang may magandang darating sa buhay niya pag maging mabait ka. . . But one sunny day, . . She was charged stealing a cellphone by no other than the country's top super idol, Liam Alejo-Torres. Sa kabila ng pagiging inosente niya sa krimen, umikot ang buhay niya na pina-360 degrees nang may minungkahi ito. Dala ng pangangailangan, she made pact with the blue-eyed devil. Will Islanda make the odds placed on her favor? Or will Liam make her play by his rules? Will the unrefined lady bring him down from his high horse? "Never." Sagot ni Liam. "Wag kang magsalita ng tapos, 'tol." Angas namang ngisi ni Isla. Or will the Devil with a Golden Curls, Icy Blue-Eyes and Crooked Grin bring the woman out of her? "Easy as pie." It's Liam's turn to smile. He bit his lower-lip, eyes slitting with his playful grin. "I need PERA not PROBLEMA." Tango pa ni Isla para segundahan ang sinabi. "Let's see about that. How long can you last?" Let the Battle of Wits.. begin!! 🤣

"You're pretty." Isaac told her while she's crying and eating two slices of pizza. Napatigil si Avery at napatitig sa kaharap. Isaac is Liam's manager. Liam is the Nation's Idol. Avery is Liam's bestfriend and soon-to-be-girlfriend(?). In the world where physical standard matters, an overweight 23 year old woman will surely have a hard time fitting in --- not just with judgemental people but with clothes, shoes and.... public vehicle as well. Kahit saan ka lumingon, Liam's posters, billboards, ads are everywhere. Halos lahat ng babae nagkakandarapa para lang mapansin nito. Avery is so lucky to be close to him. Knowing he is so famous and every household knows his name, may oras pa rin itong tawagan at makipagkita sa kaniya. Everyone would definitely want want to be in her shoes. Problem is, they do it in secrecy. Her being 'fat' is already a problem. Liam doesn't mind. But she does. Matagal na pangarap nitong maging sikat, and no way she would shatter that dream. But it only takes one event to turn erything up-side down she thought will remain forever. "Do you want to change? Do you want to be a model?" the sexy-as-fuck manager asked her. "Model sa pagkain ng mga baboy ibig mong sabihin?" Sira ba glasses nito? Di ba nito nakikitang naguunahan na ang mga bilbil niya na lumabas sa damit niya?

Isaiah Gideon del Valle, the man who once loved Vivi so gently and understood her like no one else, is gone when she returns. In his place is someone cold, distant, and quietly unforgiving. Still, Vivi endures-not just because a part of her still hopes there's something left to save... but because Isaiah holds the one ace he knows she can never walk away from: their child.
