LOGINSophia and James grew up together. And as time goes by, they had developed an intimacy and love for each other. Everybody thought they would end up together. But fate seemed to be playing a ruthless game for the two of them. James married--but not with Sophia. Heartbroken, the latter left to start anew. Ten years later, their paths crossed again. Unresolved issues sprung in the chambers of their heart.

What will happen if one leaves unresolved issues in the past behind? Will it definitely affect the future?

THE WHOLE PLACE is full of energy and vibrance. It’s my 8th birthday and Gran and Papa have organized this party for all of us. Everyone is invited. Including Sophia, of course. Her father, Mr. Cruz, is also here. He greets me a grumpy “Happy Birthday, Kid” and casually goes to the table where papa and the rest of our male neighbors eat and drink.

Our parents are mostly fisherfolks but fortunately, the island is also surrounded with meadows. Coconut trees grow in this part. These meadows are being graced with cows and horses as well. The meadows are our most favorite place. Even if we do not own it, Sophia and I imagine that someday, this place will be ours.
