Every next level of your life demands a different you. So what are the odds if a sweet and naive teenage girl transforms herself into a role, for which she wasn't ready at all, to cope up with her life?
A woman with two faces. A mother with two lives. Is she harmful in any way? No, she isn't. But her messed up past is.
Away from her family, she created her own family. A family with two adorable kids, friends to stand by her and colleagues to support her.
Why there was a need for her to be the way she is now? Will Raelyn Harper ever be able to turn to the person whom she was in the past?
Mysteries start to unravel when her lost love, Ryan Rodriguez, enters her life again. Though she thinks that she is over him, she couldn't resist him. And Ryan wasn't the one to back off when he finally got a hold on her.
Things change, heart breaks, past chases the present to become the future and pretty much love reunites, making her realize that things left undone needs to be served rather than masquerading ones' true self.
