After finishing her certification course in Hong Kong, Cara (Belle Mariano) returns to the Philippines and reunites with her best friend, Ino (Donny Pangilinan), whom she’s also loved throughout the years. In seeing him again, she is shocked to see how much the tragic accident, which took his mom’s life and left him colorblind, caused him to struggle in getting on with life. To bring back the colors in the life of her artist friend, Cara helps him to paint the centerpiece in the upcoming exhibition of his late mom.
As Ino gives painting another try, he meets the gallery curator, Iris (Angelina Cruz), in whom Ino saw the color red again. As Iris helps Ino cope with his colorblindness, their gradual closeness leaves Cara heartbroken, forcing her to make a tough decision about fighting for Ino’s love. Meanwhile, Ino struggles to get past the trauma of the accident, as well as the grief that stands in the way of him opening himself to love once more.
