What he does not recall is that it's not his first time here and had connections that he forgot about due to an unfortunate incident in his childhood. Now he has to spend three years of his high school in Saint George where people become increasingly interested in his life. Is it because of his demeanour or he might be hiding something? He ends up being chased by Scarlett Ava Williams who is the captain of Saint George's girls soccer team and an admired personality in there. She's also the reason for his success in his desired career that his family is against. People that he disliked in the beginning become the best of his friends, each with their own struggles, dreams & aspirations and a story to tell. Watch the drama unfold as different secrets are found out and bonds are changed, as people get hurt and struggle to find their true selves, as hearts are broken and homes are made. And most importantly, dreams are finally chased.
