Marple_Dame

"POVERTY IS NOT HINDRANCE TO SUCCESS!" Sigaw ni Islanda bilang panimula niya sa sinalihang barangay beauty pageant. 

Iyon ang katagang memoryado na halos 7.2 Billion na populasyon sa mundo. Ginamit na sa slam/autograph book, naisulat na ng maraming sikat na personalidad at sinigaw na ng mga bakla sa mga contests.

But to Isla, she hold those words dear to her heart.

A girl with a BIG DREAM.. yet small height, namulat si Islanda Macatuto na salat sa pamumuhay. Dapat siya maging maangas, maliksi.. --- mapanuri, mapagmatyag, mapangahas, Matangla--- ehem..

Matigas ang ulo niya pero madiskarte. Living alone, struggling almost every day of her life, nanatili pa rin siya matatag at hinaharap ang kinabukasan na taas-noo. Lumaki man siyang walang-wala, di pa rin pumasok sa utak niya ang gumawa ng masasamang bagay. Kasi naniniwala siyang may magandang darating sa buhay niya pag maging mabait ka.

But one sunny day,
.

.

She was charged stealing a cellphone by no other than the country's top super idol, Liam Alejo-Torres.

Sa kabila ng pagiging inosente niya sa krimen, umikot ang buhay niya na pina-360 degrees nang may minungkahi ito.
Dala ng pangangailangan, she made pact with the blue-eyed devil. 

Will Islanda make the odds placed on her favor? Or will Liam make her play by his rules?

Will the unrefined lady bring him down from his high horse?

"Never." Sagot ni Liam.

"Wag kang magsalita ng tapos, 'tol." Angas namang ngisi ni Isla.

Or will the Devil with a Golden Curls, Icy Blue-Eyes and Crooked Grin bring the woman out of her?

"Easy as pie." It's Liam's turn to smile. He bit his lower-lip, eyes slitting with his playful grin.

"I need PERA not PROBLEMA." Tango pa ni Isla para segundahan ang sinabi.

"Let's see about that. How long can you last?"

Let the Battle of Wits.. begin!! ?
