Rugged Series #1 Chrysanthe Eve Lofranco only has Hezekiah Kingston Jimenez. She believes that life, no matter how hard, will always be bearable as long as she has him on her side. At dahil sa paniniwalang iyon ay pilit niyang ikinulong ang kanyang naghuhumiyaw at nagwawalang damdamin para sa kaibigan. Triggered by her past relationships with people around her and the fear of losing the only person left on her, she always steps away, every time. Because she would rather have him as her best friend than take another step forward and lose him forever. Paano nga ba niya mahahawakan ang isang pagmamahal sa kabila ng pira-piraso niyang pagkatao dulot ng nakaraan? How can she escape when every step she takes away leads her back to him... sweeter and closer?
