Elana Angeliese Ongpauco-de Guzman deeply knew and understood that nothing in this world compares to wealth, eloquence, and intelligence. However, she knew that these possessions were nothing near permanent and they could vanish by a single click. Despite her growing up privileged from the spotlight, she taught herself to never become complacent or take her blessings for granted. Each day that passed was a reminder to her that gold and silver could dull, so she remained grounded with the fact that she could lose everything she held dear even in the blink of an eye.

Things shifted and her life began to be uncertain when she met Theodore Miguel "Dos" Altaverde-Acosta III, a player on her school's varsity team. His effortless grace on the court drew her to him like a moth to a flame. Elana had always been aware that things could shift and turn upside down, but she found herself struggling with a more profound dilemma: why was it that the possibility of him eclipsed all the realities?

She struggled with the puzzle of her emotions, feeling both captivated and perplexed by her attraction to Dos. While she confidently relied on her intellect, she could never understand why his light illuminated her dark days which made her puzzled mind even more complicated. The fact of surrendering dominance to her meticulously made thoughts challenged Elana's knowledge, and everything she had ever known about love, family, and the risks that come with choosing both.
