Plot
Andrea (Iza Calzado) and Veronica (Andi Eigenmann) are two different women brought together by fate. During childhood, they learned to love and care for each other like real sisters. The two were inseparable until unfortunate circumstances set them apart.
Over time, Andrea grows up to be a very patient and caring young lady, while Veronica becomes very independent and ambitious. When their paths meet again after so many years, the bonds of sisterhood they used to share are put to test as they fall in love with the same man, Rafael (Jake Cuenca).
As if things weren't complicated enough as they are, Rafael faces a dilemma of his own as his wealthy father Miguel (Gabby Concepcion) falls for Andrea and even asks her hand in marriage. The plot thickens when Andrea also falls for Miguel, her ex-boyfriend's father, and she is willing to take the risk for Miguel and fight for their love no matter what, after all, love is all about risk. This complicated situation is explored in the subsequent parts of the story.
