Si Merlyn Claveria Santiago, isang 28 taong gulang na OFW sa Dubai, ay kilala sa kanyang sipag at sakripisyo para sa kanyang pamilya. Sa kabila ng hirap ng trabaho at lumbay ng pangungulila, nanatili siyang tapat sa kanyang kasintahang naiwan sa Pilipinas. Ngunit isang araw, ang kanyang mundo’y gumuho nang malaman niyang nabuntis ng kanyang nobyo ang bunsong kapatid na 18 taong gulang lamang. Labis ang sakit ng pagtataksil, lalo na’t itinago ito sa kanyang mga magulang upang hindi maapektuhan ang perang ipinapadala niya buwan-buwan.
