Barbara Isobel Vallejo believes that the only way to fully enjoy life is through booze, parties and rebellion. Pinanganak sa mayamang pamilya, kailanman ay hindi niya naramdaman na kahihiyan ang pagkakaroon ng maraming pera. It was, after all, because of her family's hard work. If anything, she should be proud of it.
Rex Niccolo Uvero believes otherwise. As a man who worked hard for everything he has, his principles are founded on independence, passion and perseverance. Barbara saw that and for the first time, she felt small. Hindi naman importante si Rex Niccolo pero bakit ganoon na lang siya husgahan nito? Bakit pakiramdam niya lahat ng kinagisnan niya ay mali sa paningin nito?
She wasn't supposed to care. She wasn't supposed to give a damn. Pero bakit ganoon na lang siya ka apektado?
In the hopes of shaking off the awful feeling of looking down on herself, she went on with her usual lifestyle. She couldn't care less if Rex Niccolo judges her to death. It's her life, anyway. She'd just live it the way she wanted to.
