Even the in-laws and adopted family, who once despised and tormented me are now at my feet, begging for forgiveness. "Baby, we finally found you," the mysterious family I never expected, who've been waiting for me their whole lives. Meanwhile, my new in-laws are ready to fight the world for me, "She’s not just our daughter-in-law, she's our daughter." And my brothers-in-law, standing with their brother, fiercely ready to even burn the world for me, "If anyone dares to touch our sister-in-law, they won't even leave ashes behind."

Nagimbal ang mundo ng labinpitong taong gulang na si Elyne nang matuklasan ang isang sikretong matagal na panahong inilihim sa kan’ya. Dala ng matinding galit, unti-unting binago ng masakit na katotohanang iyon ang tahimik niyang buhay. Iyon din ang nag-udyok sa kan’ya upang tahakin baluktot na landas na hindi niya ginusto. Kailanman ay hindi niya naisip na ganitong kapalaran ang ibinigay sa kan’ya ng mapaglarong tadhana. Ni sa hinagap ay hindi rin niya naisip na magiging magulo ang kan’yang buhay. Maniniwala pa kaya siya na babalik din ang lahat sa dati? Maniniwala pa kaya siya na darating ang araw na mararanasan niyang maging masaya ulit? Maniniwala pa kaya siyang pagsubok lang ang lahat ng nangyayari? Maniniwala pa kaya siyang mayro’n pang natitirang pag-asa? Pero paano nga ba niya magagawang maniwala kung pakiramdam niya, pati ang Diyos na lumikha’y kinalimutan na rin siya?
