Kaya naman ng magkaroon siya ng chatmate na Kano na nagpapahiwatig sa kanyang gusto siya nito ay dun siya nabuhayan ng dugo na mangarap ulit. Lalo na ng magsabi itong handa daw itong puntahan siya sa Pilipinas para makipagkilala at personal siyang ligawan. Maayos na sana ang lahat maliban lamang sa isang problema: buong akala ng Kano ay seksi siya. Kung noong bata pa siya ay chubby na siya ay mas dumoble pa ata ang pagtaba niya ngayong nagdalaga na siya. Isa ito sa dahilan kung bakit lagi siyang inaasar na mataba ng kapitbahay niya mula pagkabatang si Brix; na siya namang nag-alok sa kanya na tutulungan daw siyang magpapayat kapalit ng pagiging modelo ng gym na pag-aari niya. Galit man siya dito ay pumayag na rin siya alang alang sa pangarap niyang makarating sa Amerika. Kasabay ng pagpapapayat niya ay ang unti-unting pagkawala ng galit niya kay Brix. Ang puso niyang dati'y nababalutan ng kolesterol ay nagsisimula ng tumibok para sa binatang wala ng ibang ginawa noon kundi asarin siya. Mababago kaya nito ang matagal na pangarap niyang makapunta ng ibang bansa?
