Sypnosis Mula pagkabata, hindi na naranasan ni Venisse ang init ng tunay na pamilya. Sa murang edad, natutunan niyang tumayong mag-isa—kahit pa ibig sabihin niyon ay isakripisyo ang sariling pangarap. Sa edad na 23, isang hindi inaasahang pagbubuntis ang tuluyang gumiba sa plano niyang buhay. Unti-unting nawala ang pag-asa. Araw-gabi siyang kumakayod—kahit anong trabaho, mapasukan lang. Para sa gamot, check-up, at isang kinabukasang hindi pa sigurado. Hanggang sa dumating ang panahong wala na siyang pagpipilian. Pumasok siya bilang GRO sa isang kilalang bar—isang trabahong kailanma’y hindi niya inakalang papasukin. Sa bawat ngiti at aliw sa mayayamang bisita, pinipilit niyang itago ang lungkot at takot sa likod ng mata. At doon sila nagtagpo—ni Dr. Kurt Navarro. Isang gabi, isang emergency. Ang batang dinadala ni Venisse sa sinapupunan, nalagay sa panganib. Isang komplikasyon. Isang mahal na operasyon. Isang bayarin na hindi niya kayang pasanin. At sa gitna ng kaguluhan, may inalok si Kurt. Isang kasunduan. Anim na buwang kasal. Walang emosyon. Walang label. Puro papel at pirma. Kapalit: kaligtasan ng anak niya. Pero paano kung habang lumilipas ang bawat araw, unti-unting lumambot ang pusong matagal nang pinatigas ng sakit? Paano kung sa likod ng kontrata, unti-unti niyang nararamdaman ang bagay na hindi kasama sa usapan? Pag-ibig. Isang kasunduan. Isang kasinungalingan. Isang pusong unti-unting bumibigay. Pero sa dulo ng anim na buwan… pipirma ba sila para sa wakas? O para sa panibagong simula?
