This is the story of Audrey and Anton, childhood best friends whose bond was unbreakable—until life pulled them apart. When Audrey’s father decides to move their family to Manila, she and Anton spend one last day together, talking for hours as if time could stop. “Can you come with us, please? I don’t know anyone in Manila,” Audrey pleads. Anton replies, “Can’t you just stay here? You can live with me—I’ll talk to Uncle. I’ll take care of you.” But their farewell ends in tears when Anton says something that deeply hurts Audrey. She runs away, leaving both of them heartbroken. Five years later, fate brings them together again. While walking the busy streets of Manila, Anton accidentally bumps into someone—and to his shock, it’s Audrey. Overwhelmed with joy, they embrace and catch up at her home. As they talk, Anton notices something’s wrong. Audrey insists she’s fine, but eventually breaks down and reveals the truth: her boyfriend, Baste, has been cheating on her—with her close friend, Ana. The next day, Baste shows up to apologize, but Anton intervenes, shouting, “Baste! Why are you holding Audrey’s hand?” Audrey tries to calm Anton, telling him to ignore it, but Baste leaves, saying, “We’ll talk again, Audrey. I’ll be back.” A few days later, Anton meets Baste at a café to confront him. “Please, stop bothering her,” Anton says firmly. But Baste snaps back, “Who are you to tell me that?” The tension escalates, and Anton walks away, frustrated. When Audrey tries to reach out afterward, Anton ignores her messages. Worried, she visits his cousin Kevin’s condo. Anton, hiding inside, whispers, “Don’t tell Audrey I’m here.” Kevin hesitates but eventually lies, telling Audrey that Anton went out with a girl. Shocked and jealous, Audrey storms off. Days later, Audrey finds Anton drinking alone at a bar, nearly drunk. “Why are you drinking?” she asks. “It’s nothing,” he replies bitterly. “Just let me die drinking.” Moments later, he confesses, “I love you, Audrey.” Audrey answers softly, “I love you too—because you’re my best friend.” Anton, frustrated, says, “That’s exactly it! I want to be more than friends.” They continue drinking until they both pass out. The next morning, Audrey wakes up beside Anton—both without clothes. Panicking, she shakes him awake. “Anton! What happened?” Startled, Anton blurts out, “You took advantage of me!” Audrey fires back, “You’re not even that handsome for me to do that!” Neither can remember what happened, but as they laugh through the confusion, they realize that maybe fate brought them together for a reason. In the end, Audrey and Anton choose to accept what happened—and rediscover the love that had always been there, waiting.
