Lalaine, an orphan adopted by the Sarmaniego family, has always locked her eyes on the eldest son, Leeroy, until he vanished for nine whole years without a word. Even so, she loved, yearned, and cried for him. Ngunit sapat ba 'yon para mapanatili ang pagtibok ng puso niya para sa binatang 'yon? When all she does is ask him for answers countless of times, but to no avail?
She was selfish, that's why. She didn't want to invest all her feelings for one passionate man. She was afraid of making a mistake. She didn't want to hurt others nor rip her own heart. And yes, she wanted to divert her attention on someone else. A risk-taker. Bolder. A person who had no idea what giving up meant. Her other brother, perhaps... North Sarmaniego.
