At kapag napa-ibig na ni Zircon si Yara, ang kabit ni Jack ay iwanan na niya ito agad para maturuan ng leksyon.

Hindi nagtagal ay naging magkasintahan sina Zircon at Yara, akala nilang dalawa ay magiging masaya na sila sa piling ng bawat isa ngunit lumabas ang mga lihim na hindi na sana nila gusto na lumabas. Simula noon ay naging mahirap para sa kanila ang bawat araw at humantong iyon sa kanilang hiwalayan. May pag-asa pa ba na magkabalikan sina Zircon at Yara gayong nawala na ang tiwala sa isa’t isa? May pagkakataon pa ba si Yara na makaramdam ng isang totoong pag-ibig kahit minsan na siyang naging kabit? O baka naman tuluyan na silang paghiwalayin ng tadhana at dalhin sa magkaibang landas.
