Faith was all she had when she moved to the city, faith to survive, to stay strong, to carry the weight no one else could see.
Growing up, Adyrheign Alegre witnessed all the struggles her mother had to endure as the eldest in the family. Hindi pa nakatulong na ang haligi ng kanilang tahanan ay nalulong sa bisyo, at kalaunan, humantong pa sa pisikal na pang-aabuso, hindi lang sa kaniya, kundi pati sa nakababata niyang kapatid.
When the time finally came for her to leave home, she carried just one dream, to earn her degree and give her family the life they were denied for so long. No room for distractions. No time for drama.
She promised herself that nothing,not loneliness, not exhaustion, not even the pressure of living alone in the city, would get in the way.
But sometimes, fate has a way of testing even the strongest promises.
Then came Cohen Adam Monternel, student council officer, effortlessly charming, and far too curious about the quiet, guarded world she tried so hard to protect.
With a smile that could disarm even the toughest defenses, he seemed to see right through her walls.
He wasn't just interested, he was relentless, showing up when she least expected it.
But can he actually make things easier for her...
Or will he be the storm she never saw coming?
