Adrianna Gale V. Buenconsejo grew up in the States and only went back to the Philippines for her cousin's funeral. She meets Rafael, one of her late cousin's closest friends. At the age of 12, Adi was not ignorant of what kind of life she has to deal with in the Philippines given that she is from a family of politicians. But as she experiences it, she realizes that mere words and stories from other people will not teach her about life because she has to experience everything to learn. She figures out that her life is chaotic.

Rafael Alejandro C. Rances has always been calm and relaxed with life. Growing up from a family of lawyers, he learned not to put himself into situations that can put his life at risk. He learned that keeping himself calm will save him from any bad thing and that dealing with his emotions, first, before doing anything will save him from making a mistake.

But the always calm Rafael loses his composure when Adi is around. The chaotic life of Adi becomes serene when Rafael is with her. Do they really complement each other?

Or was it just too ideal to find calm in the middle of chaos?
