Hopeless around girls, the only ones privy to Carlo's confident side are his pet cows and his best buddy, Top. Once Carlo becomes smitten with the campus cute girl Nina (Elisse Joson), he must turn to his hidden talent: poetry. He begins following Nina around, leaving her little anonymous gifts accompanied by beautiful poems on sticky notes. To his surprise, Carlo meets Nina face-to-face and she asks him for help with a beauty pageant. He soon becomes friends with his crush and discovers that her beauty is not only skin deep. Carlo's confidence grows as he gets closer to Nina, but he also finds out how much, or how little, his poetry aligns with reality. Written by iWant See less
