Jasmine Marie Garcia's life has never been perfect. She grew up in the province of Nueva Ecija and since then, she felt like all life has to offer her are tragedies like the books she read. Amidst her seemingly vicissitude life she stayed as loving, sincere, and curious—the reason why she meets Julio—the son of her mother's good friend who introduces her to the life beyond her books, and the four corners of her humble home. Their friendship was the complete opposite of her life; it was cheerful, amiable, and tranquil until one day Jasmine just disappears with no clue. The sweet soul, kind, and loving, is finally gone, but amidst all that, no one looked for her, except for Julio Arsemio Fariñas.
