Pero isang pabor ang babaligtad sa takbo ng lahat... ang pag-aalaga sa inaanak niyang si Yvonne, na ngayon ay isa nang makulit at maganda nang dalaga. At sa bawat araw na magkasama sila, hindi lang ang pasensya niya ang sinusubok, pati ang pagpipigil sa sariling naaakit sa isang bagay na hindi dapat. Makakaiwas ba siya? O tuluyan na siyang matatalo sa tukso ng isang bawal na damdamin?
