Synopsis

In the town of Itogon, Benguet lived a happy family with Dolores, Paciano, and their daughter Cecilia. One day, Paciano decides to work at Manila. He goes back and forth every day to his job, which complicates Dolores and Cecilia. One day, Cecilia awakens and Paciano disappeared. She waits for her father but has never returned.

Cecilia's dream of going to Manila will become true. She and her mother moved to Manila so Cecilia can go to college in order to find her father. Her hopes and dreams shatters when she discovers that her father has another family, and that she doesn't have enough money for college. Cecilia and Dolores survived in Manila by selling food in front of a university, where Cecilia meets Leandro, whom starts off as her tutor but they eventually fall in love with each other. At their school dance, Cecilia and Leandro go to a dark library and Cecilia gets pregnant. She agrees to marry Leandro for the sake of their child. After the two got married, Dolores later dies from cancer while holding her newborn granddaughter Corrine in her arms.

Many years passed, Cecilia does everything she can for her family; her husband Leandro and her children Corrine and Bea. Their life is about to change when Leandro meets his new assistant at work, Toni, who eventually falls in love with him. She seduces Leandro in her car and eventually she gets pregnant, resulting in Leandro losing his job. Cecilia learns about what Leandro had done from Toni's father Florencio, owner of Briones and Company. Cecilia tells Leandro to stay away and live with Toni, and her daughters become heartbroken seeing their father leaving them. Since that very moment, Corrine and Bea vows to patch the broken pieces of their family together.

A few years pass, Corrine attends UDM (Universidad de Monteagudo) for college and meets Ryan, Toni's younger brother. They eventually fall in love and will have a child of their own. However, when Cecilia reconciles with her childhood friend Carlo, the complication with her husband gets more intense. But Leandro still fights for his wife and will not give up on their marriage. Because of Leandro's unconditional love for Cecilia, he and Carlo eventually face each other and the friendship didn't seem to be working.

While dating Ryan, Corrine's childhood friend Joel is still in love with her and is seen as overprotective to her. When Bea admits to being in love with Joel at a dance, Joel is a bit taken back and Bea flees the dance and eventually to a new student's arms. This complicates Joel and Bea's friendship after Bea stops hanging out with him and leans more onto a new boy in her life then Joel. Joel realizes over time that he is no longer in love with Corrine and loves Bea now, who promises to fight for. Bea eventually chooses Joel and they begin their relationship.

In the end, when Carlo searches for himself and life, he goes back to his wife and decides to live with her and his children. Meanwhile, Corrine labored her baby with Ryan. Although premature, they still loved the baby and accept him. Corrine and Cecilia finally reconcile and the latter welcomes the baby to the family. Cecilia and Leandro finally fixed their marriage and reconciled as well. When everything is peaceful and her family is reunited, Cecilia returns to her old hometown where she finally found her long-lost father Paciano and the family lived happily altogether.
