A 15-year-old girl is gang-raped and drowned by her teachers after sneaking out. A young mother's husband is killed by her ex-lover who then stalks them to drop charges.

How can these five teenage friends Lester Carmona, Ram Barredo, G-Boy Velasco, Homer Arandia, and Hans Tolentino overcome the pressures and challenges of growing up? Lester, who craves for the love and attention of his parents, keeps on doing his rebellious stints for him to feel less neglected and unwanted. Ram is having second thoughts on pursuing his relationship with his girlfriend Maya because of the latter's father who sets too many prohibitions. Meanwhile, their friend G-Boy forces himself to like Mae in order to keep up with the trend and also to forget his older brother's girlfriend Sammy, to whom he is really attracted to. Homer, on the other hand, has a female childhood friend Raqui, who is secretly in love with him.

Anna is given the power to grant any person's wish after placing her hands on the wish maker. She decides to use it to grant the dreams of her neighbours, but every intention given gradually backfires.

Three siblings Danny, Art and Grace are now well settled with their respective families, in widely contrasting lifestyles. The one common thing that binds them loosely together is the love that their mother Dolores "Loleng" Rosales holds for all of them and her grandchildren, albeit expressed in varying ways and degrees, but always equally nurturing and self-giving. Much as they are held together by her, they are in turn separated by physical distance and the sad legacy left behind by their deceased, erstwhile strong-willed, patriarchal father.
