Jade and Benjamin's paths cross unexpectedly when they both find themselves alone in the school library during a rainy afternoon. What begins as a chance encounter quickly turns into a fateful meeting that neither of them could have anticipated.
Caught in an awkward situation, they strike a deal to help each other out-Jade will tutor Benjamin in his weakest subject, mathematics, while Benjamin agrees to assist Jade in overcoming her fear of public speaking. This unlikely partnership leads them to spend more time together, breaking down the barriers between them.
As they navigate through their respective challenges, Jade and Benjamin begin to see beyond each other's facades. Jade discovers Benjamin's hidden depth and intelligence, while Benjamin is drawn to Jade's gentle strength and resilience. Their initial animosity blossoms into a genuine friendship, and soon, undeniable feelings of affection.
As they fall in love, Jade and Benjamin face obstacles both external and internal. They must confront their own insecurities and the judgments of their peers, who struggle to understand the connection between the soft girl and the bad boy. Together, they learn to support and uplift each other, proving that love can bridge even the widest of divides.
Ultimately, their journey comes full circle as they find themselves back in the library where it all began. In this familiar setting, they reflect on how much they have changed and grown as individuals and as a couple, realizing that their meeting was not merely by chance, but rather a serendipitous beginning to a beautiful chapter in their lives.

Pero paano kung inaakala lang niya na hindi niya kayang mahalin ito pabalik? Paano kung hindi niya lang napansin ang pag mamahal para sa kaibigan na matagal na palang nandiyan, nakatago lang sa ilalim ng pag-aalinlangan?
Could it be that deep down, something he thought was impossible is actually possible?
