ride home

Ermengarde Sussane Tiangco only wanted one thing in her life, iyon ay maka-graduate sa Architecture to make her father proud. Kahit daw hindi siya maka-graduate na may latin honor basta mairaos niya ang Architecture. Iyon kasi ang kagustuhan ng kanyang Ama. She's fine with it kasi madali lang naman daw basta creative ka. Kalokohan. Halos hindi na nga siya makatayo sa kinauupuan niya matapos lang ang plates niya at maipasa ito on-time.

Things get harder when she feels like she's being left behind. Nag improve na halos lahat ng blockmates niya pero pakiramdam niya ay babago pa lang siyang nag uumpisa. She didn't feel the satisfaction her friends been saying tuwing nakakatapos siya ng plates. Sabi nila baka raw kailangan na niya maghanap ng ibang inspirasyon. She didn't like the idea kasi hindi na nga siya magkaroon ng sapat na oras sa sarili, sa lalaki pa kaya?

Until she met Silver, iyong palagi niyang nakakasuno sa jeep pauwi.

Pareho lang silang college student pero kumpara sa kanya na laging nakasalubong ang kilay, palagi itong nakangiti and seems fully contented with his life. She was intrigued to know him more and thought she'd find something not to like, but she's dead wrong. She liked everything about him.
