A beautiful high school girl named Pam is really an addict to Japanese dramas and she never knew that it will pave the way to her fetish on boys with great curls. First day of her freshman days, she saw this boy with this curly hair and just like what we call "Love at first sight" she fell for him. She thought of this guy as manly, cute and awesome but the truth is, his face is definitely not what girls would want to be with. The guy's name is Jack and he's got this square face, big forehead, inexpressive eyes and the weirdest taste on clothes, yet he looks adorable in Pam's eyes because again, he got this curls.

Pam felt terrible because this guy's not noticing her and a year passed without any understanding between them. Pam felt so down and by the time they were in their 2nd year in high school, almost all of her friends knew that she had a crush on him and that led to their first "get to know you" session. Days and months passed, they realized that they are falling for each other. Pam was so happy but her eyes seemed to have opened and the long blindness of what Jack looks bothered her. She thought of her parent's reaction because a girl like her could not be with a guy like that. Being sorry for herself, she tried to think of the positive ideals Jack possesses that would somehow erase her doubts but in the end she was frustrated of herself because she can no longer stand his face.

Summer days came and they have 2 months to wait and to ponder on things. With Pam being a part of a religious group in their school, she had to attend meetings and rehearsals for a dance to be presented at the start of the class. While she was enjoying herself with her friends, she met another guy and his name is Jay. Jay is the best friend of Jack and with the 2 months they have spent together, Jay fell for her. As he confessed his love to her, Pam felt secured because Jay's love is great and she feels it. Pam gave Jay a chance and they felt contented with one's company. Pam still loves Jack but she can't just give up the other so she chose Jay. She was guilty for making him a cover up but she likes him like a friend and tried to love him. Jack and Jay fought for her love and the best friends came to be the worst enemies. Of course, Pam is kinda sad because she's the reason behind the distance of the two but a month after, Jack had faced the truth and they became good friends again.

Actually in the end, she had to let go of him also and move on. Jay is not also handsome, he's black and thin but he's understanding, honest and true. 

     Love really chooses no size, face and color. It's a mystery no one can ever explain unless they have felt it before or have experienced it. To love what is outside is not a sin but to love the inner is great and sometimes it has to be kept and freed so as not to make any mistake again.
