"I don't think I can listen anymore if my heart beats again."

Adelaide Eleanor Gonzaga is passionate and is ready to risk everything for the sake of her goal, to be a lawn tennis olympic champion. Lea found love in lawn tennis, not until she needed to stop for the sake of her grades. Theo Cyrus De Jesus, Lea's long-time crush and one of the Philippine High School's top ranker decided to tutor her, to bring back the PHS Lawn Tennis Queen. Lea's goal was to be an olympic champion, to show the love she have for lawn tennis but it changed when she finally returned to the court, with the same goal but a different reason this time.

"Love is practically nothing in lawn tennis, but in life... it is everything."
