Kirsten’s Background:

    Kirsten has always been independent since that’s what her parents taught her in her younger days. Both of her parents owned a well-known Coffee Business that’s why she was able to travel whenever she wanted. She likes to write, vlog, and travel and that keeps her sane. But one day when she met an accident, her mom forbade her from travelling again and isolated her from coming out of their house.

Lucas’ Background:

    He’s a happy go-lucky person. He wants to spend his life happy because he has nothing to lose. He already lost his parents when he was young and only has to rely on himself. That's why he just wants to do everything that he wants in his life. 

Kirsten’s Personality:

    Kirsten’s a good daughter. She doesn’t want to disappoint her parents, especially her mom. She likes extreme stuff just like climbing mountains, riding extreme roller coaster rides because she firmly believes that you’ll never know if you like something unless you’ll try it yourself. She’s an adventurous person.

Lucas’ Personality:

    Lucas is a pesky person. When he really wants to do something or to know something he’ll dig deeper. He’s easy to get along with because he’s kind but sometimes he can be annoying. Lucas may look like someone who doesn’t study but in fact he’s really a good college student. In fact, he’s a President’s Lister even if he has so many extracurricular activities on his plate.

Kirsten’s Physical Appearance:

    Lucas’ 18 years old, college student from a prestigious school. He’s 6 foot tall and has brown hair. He’s moreno and has pinkish lips.

Ken Quimbao:

    Kirsten’s best friend since kindergarten. He’s always there for Kirsten every time and he’s the first one to know why Kirsten’s mm restricted her from travelling. He’s a protective friend and he’s soft hearted. Ken is also Lucas’ friend since they’re both part of the dance troupe.

Tim Lee:

    Kirsten’s friend. He’s also Ken’s friend. They knew each other since high school because they went to the same high school. 

Nancy Collins:

    Kirsten’s Mother. She’s protective of Kirsten because she doesn’t want to lose Kirsten especially since she's an only child.

Nanay Lola:

    Ken’s grandmother. She’s the one who's always been there for Ken because his parents are always working.
