Only Up From Here

Sa mata ng buong mundo, si Catherine Adams ang pinakamapalad na babae—minahal, pinrotektahan, at pinangakuan ng habang-buhay ng lalaking pinapangarap ng lahat: si Nolan Martinez. Mula pagkabata hanggang sa proposal na isinahimpapawid sa buong mundo, saksi ang lahat sa tila perpektong pag-iibigan nila. Ngunit sa likod ng matatamis na ngiti at engrandeng singsing, may lihim na pilit niyang nilulunok—ang pagkakanulo ng lalaking minahal niya ng buong puso. Sa bawat "overtime", sa bawat palusot, unti-unting nalaman ni Catherine ang sakit ng katotohanang may ibang babae sa buhay ni Nolan. Kaya’t isang desisyon ang binuo niya: maglaho. Sa mismong araw ng kasal, ang bride na inaasahang pupuno ng altar ay isang “patay” na katauhan. “Wala na kaming kinabukasan.” Ito ang paniniwala ni Catherine, kahit pa sa bawat sulyap ni Nolan ay tila may lambing na totoo. Pero sa isang mundong puno ng kasinungalingan, may lugar pa ba para sa tunay na pagmamahal? Isang kwento ng pagkakanulo, paglimos ng katotohanan, at ang masakit na pagpili—pag-ibig o paghilom?
