Lottie lived an unhappy youth. Sa tuwing nakikita niya ang mga kaklaseng may bagong cellphone, bagong bag o sapatos, at masasarap na pagkain ay nagngingitngit siya sa inggit. She never had a dress before. Ni hindi niya alam ang lasa ng fried chicken sa Jollibee. She hated everything about being so poor that she wanted to run away from everyone and forget all of it. That's why Lottie was driven to study as hard as she could, be at the top of her class until she graduated, and hopefully be given an opportunity for a scholarship. Sa kabila ng matinding pambubully, natiis niya ang lahat ng iyon just to stick with her goals. She was in her last year of senior high school, a few months from graduating, when a tragedy happened. This changed Lottie's life and scarred her forever. The only right thing to do is to leave the town right away. She thought she would be happy as she drove away from the only place she'd known for 18 years. But she knew that leaving the place meant leaving a huge piece of her heart.
