The Hidden Card

Si Cindy Salcedo ay isang prangka, makulit, at matapang na babae na sanay lumaban sa kahit sinong bastos o mayabang. Nang makapasok siya sa isang kakaibang trabaho na may napakalaking sweldo kahit halos wala siyang ginagawa, akala niya ay jackpot na ang buhay niya. Pero nagkamali siya. Dahil sa kompanyang iyon, paulit-ulit niyang nakakasagupa ang lalaking pinaka-ayaw niya sa lahat—ang mayabang, babaero, at ubod ng kapal ng mukhang si Nilo. Isang lalaking naniniwalang lahat ng babae ay nahuhulog sa kanya, at walang mintis na nauuwi sa bangayan ang bawat pagkikita nila. Isang araw, dahil lamang sa isang sitwasyong kailangan niyang makabawi sa mga taong minamaliit siya, napilitan si Cindy na sumakay sa kalokohan ni Nilo—magpanggap silang mag-asawa. Akala nila simpleng pagpapanggap lang iyon. Pero habang tumatagal, nagiging mas magulo ang lahat. Unti-unting nahahaluan ng totoong emosyon ang kanilang kasinungalingan, at mas lalong gumugulo ang sitwasyon nang matuklasan ni Cindy ang isang nakakagulat na katotohanan— Ang lalaking kinaiinisan niya… ay maaaring ang mismong boss na pinagtatrabahuhan niya. Sa gitna ng mga away, pagpapanggap, at mga lihim na unti-unting nabubunyag, isang tanong ang bumabagabag sa kanilang dalawa: Paano kung ang relasyong nagsimula sa kasinungalingan ay mauwi sa totoong pagmamahalan? At paano kung ang taong pinaka-ayaw mo… siya pala ang taong itinadhana para sayo?
