In a small town in Batangas, Mia, a 23-year-old barista, meets Andres, a 43-year-old retired seaman. Every day, he buys coffee at the café where Mia works. Quiet, smiling, and carrying an inexplicable mystery — she immediately falls for Andres' unique charisma.
At first, their conversations were innocent. “How are you, Mia?” they said, handing over coffee. But as the weeks passed, their stories grew longer — about music, life at sea, and dreams. Mia, though young, had a heart full of understanding; while Andres had a depth of experience.
One day, while it was raining, Andres picked up Mia from work because he couldn't ride a tricycle. Inside the car, amidst the rain and silence, Andres asked, "Mia, aren't you scared of our age gap?" Mia just smiled and replied, "Age is not the measure of true connection, but the heartbeat."
Not everything was easy. Many questioned their relationship. Mia had friends who said that Mia might just be looking for a father. Andres had acquaintances who said that he might just see Mia as a toy. But despite everything, they chose to hold each other's hands.
One day, in front of the sea, while watching the sunset, Andres took out a small box. "I don't know how many more years time will give me, but I want to be with you until the end," he said. Mia's response was tearful as she accepted the ring. "Yes, Andres. From now on, you are my day every tomorrow."
In the end, they proved that love is not measured by age, but by true and honest management. Mia and Andres are proof that if the feelings are genuine, no matter how much the year gap — the heart still wins.
