Raeden Austin Berkshire in his 17 years of age is a tall, fair-skinned, and handsome introvert who is very observant and likes to watch and judge people from afar. He thinks that with one gaze at a person he'll know exactly what kind of attitude or personality that person has. And most of the time, he is right.
In his fourth year of high school, Raeden was sitting silently in his classroom, not until the new transferee from abroad came and completely changed his life. He tried to guess what kind of a person Yoshikazu Kimiko is. She has a very out-going and cheerful attitude that sometimes feels like she's sucking my energy away, he even said. As the days go by, he realized that knowing her personality wasn't enough and wanted to explore and know more about her and was very curious about her sudden existence in his life.
But, we all know that curiosity killed the cat...
Engineering students Pfifer and Ivan know that what they have is something special. Without a proper label between them plus an ugly twist of fate, can they manage to be together in the end--or will they remain as each other's TOTGA and nothing more?

May feelings na laging nandiyan, nakaabang kung kailan magpapapansin. Nakaabang kung kailan ako titisurin sa mga pamilyar na kanta, lugar, at salita. Magpapaalala sa isang mukha na hindi ko naman gano'n kakabisado pero pamilyar. Magpapaalala sa mga dating pakiramdam.
Malalaman mo raw kung sino ang The One That Got Away mo kapag narinig mo 'yong salita at nakaalala ka ng iisang tao lang; nakatisod ka ng mga dating pakiramdam; nangulila ka sa mga nakaraang saya; nakaalala ka ng mga pamilyar na sakit.
Sabi, time heals wounds at distance makes one forget. Bakit parang hindi naman effective? Bitbit ko pa rin lahat ng what if. Hindi pa rin ako makatakas sa maraming sana.
Ako ba ang bumitiw o siya? Tapos na ba kami talaga?
Ang sarap magtanong kaso...wala nga palang kami noon.
