Plot Summary

Angelito Santos (De Guzman) is a graduating high school teenager. He meets an attractive and intelligent high school teenage girl named Rosalie Dimaano (Pineda) who is also on the same year level as he is. One day after classes ended, he defended her from a group of teenage thugs from his school while they were journeying home. Soon, their relationship grew stronger and they recall their happy memories such as Angelito fetching her for their school's prom, serenading for her with his guitar, and hanging out with her on their free time. Even though Rosalie's father, Delfin (Tantay), a middle-aged medical student who works as a security guard, objected to these activities, they still continue on.

One day, a heavy rain occurs during their outdoor hangout and they head to an abandoned hut. There Angelito confesses his love for her once more and the two make love and have sexual intercourse. Later, Rosalie discovers that she was pregnant and her parents also did as they discovered the pregnancy test in their house's bedroom. Angelito, upon confiding to his grandmother Pinang (Oropesa) about Rosalie's pregnancy, broke into sobs as this outraged his grandmother. They go to the Dimaano's home to confess about what happened but instead of a talk, the dealing goes horribly violent as Delfin threatens to kill Angelito with his firearm and Rosalie's brother Rolan (Evans) beats up Angelito with great force enough to kill him wherein Delfin joins in too. Rosalie defends Angelito when Rolan is about to throw a rock at Angelito's head and the ordeal stops to a bloody end as workmen arrive in response to the noise. During Angelito's recovery with is left arm bandaged and after a misfortune in school, he learns that Rosalie's family is planning to move out of town. Later, Rosalie escapes the Dimaano home by midnight. Angelito and Rosalie then rent a hut owned by a kind elderly woman.
