When your dream turns your world upside down, would you still pursue it?
Tala Jean Serrano is an aspiring servant leader who only wants a better future for her country. Running for office has been her dream since she was a kid. She even pursued a Bachelor of Public Administration in college to better understand how the government works and how to serve people. When she won as SK Chairman, her world revolved around her studies and serving the youth in her barangay. Then, a man who is an Economics student, good at public speaking and with dimples, caught her attention.
However, upon learning that Valerio Luan Aguadilla comes from a political family, she immediately hated admiring him. Unfortunately, the world seemed to be making fun of her. Instead of distancing herself from him, she admired him even more, despite her dislike for his family background.
As their romantic connections deepened, her life turned upside down before they even became official. Tala never imagined that standing up for the people around her would lead to such turmoil.
From "I want to be a servant leader," she never thought she would one day say, "I wish that dream had never crossed my mind."
