He was Vicente Neil De Luna, the son of an artist I found admirable for the elegance of his portraits and paintings. We shared the same interest, and how we met and got along.
I fell in love with him quickly, which could explain why I became tired and gave up easily.
We promised each other, yet he lied to me. He became selfish and always concerned about me, came to the point where he forgot about himself. I wanted him to learn to love himself, so I decided to let him go. I chose him to love himself more than me.
I'm Liechelle Kim Avery, and I'll let the art of love bear witness to the love we both made, which has been now covered with thick paint to the point where it can no longer be seen or felt.
You taugth me to draw, and every line will lead me to my secure place; those are your warm embrace, My Vicente De Luna.

Si Carmelita Montecarlos ay ang bunsong anak ng pinakamayamang angkan sa San Alfonso. Habang si Juanito Alfonso naman ay ang anak ng pinakamaimpluwensiya at makapangyarihang gobernadorcillo. Itinadhana silang mag-ibigan na pinagtibay ng kasunduan. Nakatakda silang ikasal sa ika-dalawampung kaarawan ni Carmelita.
Ngunit sa mismong araw ng kanilang engrandeng kasal ay binaril si Juanito. At hindi na nalaman pa kung sino ang may sala nito. Inakala ng lahat na doon na nagtapos ang kanilang masaklap na kuwento. Na gaya ng kanilang mga kaluluwa ay sumasalangit na rin ang naudlot na pag-iibigan nilang dalawa. Ang hindi nila alam, may ibang plano ang tadhana.
The laws of nature will bend. After more than 104 years, Carmela, the fourth generation of the Montecarlos clan will be born on a leap year - sa parehong araw ng kapanganakan ni Carmelita. A short trip to San Alfonso for her 20th birthday will give her rebellious life a whimsical twist. Through a diary, she'll go back in time. And the Carmela of 2016 will meet Juanito of 1892.
