How will Drew's parents help and guide him as he enters the "real world"?

Summary

Enjoying a teenage life, second year high school teen Andrew Medina (Nash Aguas) looks forward to maturity. But a one-night stand results in the unplanned pregnancy of an attractive college student named Vanessa Bueno (Ella Cruz).

When his son is born, Drew faces the many realities of being a father and manages to succeed. However, it would be found out that he is not the child's real father and Vanessa placed the weight on him due to his being responsible. After a tearful parting of ways, the real father of the child, Vanessa's former boyfriend, bullying campus jock Ralph (Alexander Diaz), accepts the responsibilities of being a father but abuses his son. Andrew will later fight for the child's custody after seeing Ralph's abuses and maltreatment.

Synopsis

Second year high school teenager Andrew Medina, nicknamed Drew, is excited to enjoy his teenage life and take new responsibilities, aiming to be an airline pilot. His father Gilbert (Ariel Rivera) is ready to migrate to the United States for his new job but tells him that he should make the most out of his teenage life and focus on his studies while balancing them to being a new head of the household. Drew's mostly hangs out with his friends and prevent them from doing wrong thins such as voyeurism, wherein he is blamed but is found out innocent.

Despite his mere inability to understand algebra, Vanessa Bueno (Ella Cruz), an attractive and popular first year college student taking up BS Accountancy in the same school Drew studies in, tutors and aids him. Eventually, Drew gets infatuated with her. Vanessa herself is in a relationship with a fearsome, bullying campus jock named Ralph Robles. On Drew's 14th birthday, after a celebration in the Medina household with his friends, the gang goes to a nightclub for a snack but are asked to leave after Vanessa catches them. She makes Drew kiss her upon the request of the group on the condition that they will return home. Drew inadvertently kisses her on her lips much to the shock of Vanessa's boarding house mates.

After Vanessa breaks up with Ralph, she and Andrew talk about their lives. One night, Drew visits the boarding house where Vanessa resides. He enters to find a drunk Vanessa and takes her to her room while telling her that drinking is bad for her health. Vanessa drunkenly refuses and relents by collapsing on the floor. She and Drew seemingly make out. Eventually, Drew spends the night with her. Weeks later, Vanessa experiences morning sickness and discovers her pregnancy. Camille Lorenzo (Alexa Ilacad), Andrew's childhood friend, reunites with him a few days later. Her mother, Sylvia, who is Gilbert's former lover, also reunites with Drew alongside her businessman husband, Arman, and later takes on the role of the school principal. One day during an outing, Drew hangs out with Camille and jokes to her about scars on her legs. While Camille reveals to him that her scars have faded, she and Drew recall their childhood and they began to play a favorite game of theirs. Camille however slips and wounds her left thigh and Drew tends to her wounds. Sylvia (Agot Isidro) notices this and mistakes it for sexual harassment after asking Drew to find a first-aid kit.
