Teenagers Cyndi (Barbie) and Lukas (Joshua) meet one summer at the beach. An unfortunate accident involving Lukas's mother unfortunately forces him and his popular balladeer father Jaime (Eric Quizon) to migrate abroad. Two years later, Lukas returns to his home country and is admitted to Cyndi's school. But Lukas has undeniably changed from cheerful and fun-loving to sullen and aloof--even to his old friend Cyndi. Cyndi and her best friend Baste (Jhake) vow to help Lukas come to terms with the misfortunes he experienced in the past. The three youngsters become inseparable, passing most of their time at Baste's place listening to music. Both Baste and Lukas, who have nothing much in common, are secretly in love with Cyndi. But their friendship faces another challenge when a deep, dark secret buried in the past unfolds, one that will question their identities. Could they possibly have something more in common? How will this bitter conflict affect their homes, their lives, and their young hearts?
