Bata pa lamang si Sam ay bukambibig na niya na si Vaughn ang lalaking kanyang magiging asawa — na kaibigan ng nakakatanda niyang kapatid. Kahit malaki ang agwat ng kanilang edad at nakakabatang kapatid lamang ang turing nito sa kanya. Madalas nga ay nagpa-practice na siya sa pagsusulat at idudugtong ang apelyido ni Vaughn na Lopez sa kanyang buong pangalan na Samantha Santos. Inspirasyon din niya ito sa kanyang pag-aaral para maipagmalaki siya nito. Samantalang ang binata ay may nobya sa katauhan ni Yvonne — childhood sweetheart ng binata. At nangako na pagkatapos ng sampung taon nito sa modelling career ay magpapakasal na silang dalawa at iiwanan ni Yvonne ang modelling para sa bubuuin nilang pamilya. Nang malaman iyon ni Sam ay labis nitong ininda ang balitang iyon — hindi kumain ng ilang araw, tumangis nang tumangis sa kanyang silid, napabayaan ang pag-aaral at naging sakitin. Hanggang sa isang araw ay makabuo siya ng plano — ang pikutin si Vaughn. Hindi naman siya nagtagumpay dahil nahulaan agad ng binata ang kanyang masamang balak. Sa kasamaang palad ay hindi natuloy ang kasal nila Vaughn at Yvonne. Sinamantala naman ni Samantha ang pagkakataon na ligawan si Vaughn. Wala siyang pakialam kung siya ang humabol sa binatang CEO. Walang nakapigil sa kanya kahit ultimo ang sariling pamilya dahil katwiran niya ay nasa tamang edad na siya at tapos na sa pag-aaral. Ngunit, tila naging bato na yata ang puso ng binatang Bilyonaryo dahil kahit anong panunuyo niya rito ay hindi talaga siya nito pinapansin. Igi-give up na ba niya ang pagmamahal kay Vaughn at ibabaling na lamang ang atensyon sa nakababatang kapatid nito na matagal nang may gusto sa kanya? O maghihintay pa rin siya na mapansin ni Vaughn kahit mayroon na ulit itong bagong nobya?

One of the most painful things on earth is to lose a loved one. Whether in death or heartbreak. It's a pain different from all others. You feel every burn, every ache, your senses awaken, and greedily await a memory to sip in and then wreck your entire being. She took everything. His Light. His Heart. His Soul. It had no end. For years it went on like it would never end. But, it did. Just in passing, a normal day, a day like every other, but it was the day, his heart danced truly and his chest tighten as if a fierce wind had passed by, blending with his soul, leaving a suffocating feeling in his chest, a choking sensation in his throat, there was a pressure making it hard to breathe. ******* "My heart has heated for the human and my blood has flown for him. Every time I thought of him, my heart would ache. It would ache so much I couldn't breathe, the feeling of despair, yet sweetness... Even so, I still couldn't stop thinking about him." So...this is how it feels to love a person. "I belong to you, just as this merman belongs to the seas. Like a falling leaf belongs to its roots." "Nothing can stop me from falling into your embrace." ******* ®®
