Synopsis edit
JM Benicio III is every woman's ideal man - good-looking, hardworking and successful in his structured corporate life. Yet he remains unmarried at 38. Behind JM's seemingly contented façade is actually a complicated character - perfectionist, cold, cautious and elusive of commitment. JM is bound to meet the jologs Kringkring, a single mother who'd practically grab any job in order to feed and give her son, Marcus, a better life. The odd friendship will usher Kringkring into JM's mysterious past including his unfinished business with the woman he truly loves. JM's soft spot surfaces when he starts playing a reluctant daddy to Kringkring's son. The impossible and indifferent JM will eventually break free from his past hurts and will finally realize the value of love and commitment.
