Samara Annalyse Frontera, considered herself depleted and couldn't give that much. A consistent honor student, a scholar at a prestigious university, and an eldest daughter who weighs a lot of responsibilities.
She is surrounded by many responsibilities, from being the eldest daughter who guides her siblings all day, to being a working student in their school cafeteria, and being a consistent honor student, Samara has no time for love. Love never flashed on her mind, because there was no space in there, she was too occupied in her current life.
But then, destiny is stubborn. As she was busy serving students in their cafeteria, a 6-foot-tall guy was fascinated by her outstanding beauty. Instead of asking her name, he called her "Angel".

Elaine Joy Mendoza was from Los Angeles. Pero kahit ilang taon na mula nang tumira siya roon kasama ang pamilya ay hindi niya naramdaman na iyon ang kanyang tahanan. She wasn't happy and she missed the days of living in her own country. She dreamed of coming back to her home. Pumayag sa kanyang hiling ang ama ngunit matatag ang pagbabawal ng kanyang ina. Too bad, she didn't believe that her mother knows what's best for her. Siya lang naman ang makakaalam kung ano ang makakabuti sa sarili dahil nasa kanyang mga kamay ang sariling buhay.
Kung sana nga lang ay nakinig siya. She's guilty of her wrongdoings. Her life could have been better if she only obeyed. It could have been better if she was honest. It could have been better if she didn't betray her own family for the sake of her happiness. Matigas ang kanyang ulo, malambot ang kanyang puso. Ito ang nagpahamak sa kanya.
But even when it's too late for realizations, she'd still do what could have been better, because humans are expected to do the right thing while living in this world. Walang lugar ang kaligayahan kung ang mga desisyon ay mali. 'Di bale nang masaktan at mawalan. Ang mahalaga ay pinili niya ang mas makakabuti, ang mga nararapat para sa lahat.
