Para kay Vien ang malas niya sa pag ibig,ang taong minahal niya sa loob ng mahabang panahon ay ikinasal sa pinsan niya.. Malungkot siya ng mga sandaling iyon,malungkot na tinanggap niya ang buong katutuhanan na kahit kailan hindi magiging sila ng lalaking mahal niya.. Pero may isang Dion na walang ibang ginawa kundi sirain ang araw niya..isang lalaking kina iinisan niya,bukod kasi sa playboy ito mukhang wala pa itong balak mag seryuso sa buhay..
