Synopsis

Waldo del Mar shares a deep love with Aryann Castillo. Although both of them are young, their love for each other is undeniably genuine.

However, this changes when one night Waldo accidentally kills a man who'd attempted to rape Aryann. Waldo was convicted and was sent to prison. Feeling responsible for Waldo's misfortune, Aryann takes on different jobs to raise money to get him out of jail and meets Tristan, who helps her out.

Soon after being freed, Waldo faces the vengeful brother of the man he killed and was shot. He falls off a cliff. and drifts into the sea - everyone except Aryann believes him dead. After finally having accepted Waldo's death, Aryann moves on and is set to be wed to Tristan; matters are complicated when a still-alive Waldo crosses paths with Aryann.
