"Semper Fidelis," or "Always faithful," is Elaine's promise to her husband in front of the altar. She was young and naive, and she was madly in love with her husband, who had been forced to marry her.
Their paths diverged a minutes after her marriage to Gael. He moved to Colorado to run his family's business. He abandoned her in the care of his parents.
Years have passed, but she remains in love with her husband, waiting for him to return home and claim her as his.
Gael, on the other hand, returned to the Philippines with his first love.
Her heart broke into tiny pieces that day, and she accepted the fact that her husband would never love her the way she loved him.
She asked an annulment.
Gael nods and hands it to her.
A week later, her husband was involved in an accident that required her assistance and support. And she stayed by her husband’s side to take care of it.
And again, she hoped that Gael would be able to return her love.
