Got To Believe

Contrary to his initial plan of sending Joaquin abroad, Dr. Alferos decides to take out the bullet from Joaquin's head immediately after the boy's car accident. While the operation puts Joaquin's life in jeopardy, the extracted bullet reveals the truth about Chito's alleged shooting of Joaquin. Two years later, Chichay gets a shot at changing the Tampipis' measly living with the help of an art curator in Singapore. Unaware of what happened to Joaquin after his brain surgery, Chichay sees someone who resembles Joaquin in Singapore.

Just when she thought that she is just seeing things, Chichay finds herself face to face with Joaquin in Singapore. Much to her dismay, however, Joaquin does not acknowledge who she is and instead hugs another girl who calls him Ryan. To make matters worse, Joaquin asks the new girl to be his girlfriend right in front of Chichay.

A minor accident brings Chichay to a hospital where she discovers the truth behind Joaquin's inability to recognize her. Now aware of Joaquin's amnesia and his new life as Ryan, Chichay resists the temptation to remind him about their old flame. A day before Chichay's flight to Manila, Ryan personally asks Chichay to make a painting for Alex, his girlfriend, who happens to be a big fan of Chichay's art genius.

Chichay fails to make Joaquin remember anything about her and takes it as a sign to move on with her life without him. She returns to the Philippines and starts a new life with her family. However, Ronaldo passes away, and Ryan's insistence to be at his grandfather's funeral leaves Juliana and Jaime no choice but to ensure that their son will not remember anything during his stay in the Philippines.

Just when Chichay has resolved to forget about her and Joaquin, Ryan develops the desire to remember the past following his encounter with Kit at Ronaldo's funeral. Soon, Juliana finds herself cornered when Ryan bargains for a one-month stay in the Philippines and she has no concrete reason for declining his request.

Chichay's emerging reputation in fine arts attracts community developers into hiring Chichay for their beautification projects. Consequently, Juliana's conscious efforts to keep Ryan away from Chichay get wasted when Ryan himself employs Chichay to decorate Zuri, East Horizon's flagship community in Laguna. Meanwhile, Alex's father demands that she return to Paris. Elsewhere, Chito and Betchay find the need to discuss with Juliana her ongoing lawsuit against Chito.

Respecting Ryan's girlfriend, Chichay decides not to revive even her friendship with Joaquin. Unbeknownst to Chichay, Alex herself instructs Ryan to befriend the famous Cristina. Subsequently, the more Chichay avoids Ryan, the more Ryan finds ways to get closer with her. Soon, Chichay finds her and Ryan inadvertently reliving some of their special moments in the past. Meanwhile, Juliana agrees to drop her lawsuit against Chito on the condition that no Tampipi will come near any San Juan ever again. Chito and Betchay accept Juliana's terms without telling Chichay about it.

Despite Chichay's objections, Ryan accompanies Chichay on her way home. When they reach Patricia's house, however, Patricia warns Chichay that Didith and her friends are within the vicinity lying in wait for her and Joaquin. Chichay is left with no choice but to return to Zuri with Ryan. Soon, the walls Chichay put up against Ryan gradually crumble when Chichay realizes that Ryan is still the same Joaquin who longs for a friend he could trust and do silly things with.

Ryan feels happy for finally being able to form a friendship with Chichay and for spending a simple dinner with her. Chichay, on the other hand, finds the need to leave right away as she discovers that Ryan, Ethel, and Tarantina are residing at the next unit. However, Tarantina's persistence to know Cristina's identity puts Chichay in great trouble.

Forced into a confrontation, Chichay explains to Tarantina what she was doing in Joaquin's house. As Chichay emphasizes the purpose of her visit, she assures Tarantina that she has no intention of reminding Joaquin of his troubled past. Despite Chichay's assurance, Tarantina keeps a watchful eye. Meanwhile, Betchay and Chito enjoy the royal treatment after Tessa invites them as special guests for a grand event.

After spending a whole day with Chichay, Ryan confronts himself and begins to deliberate if he has feelings for her. He unintentionally misses Alex's urgent call as he spends time in his introspection. Meanwhile, Chichay goes to Tessa's grand party upon Betchay's request. During the party, she unwillingly becomes the subject of Didith's interrogation.

Alex becomes exceedingly fond of Chichay after Ryan finally introduces them to each other. As a sign of her growing affection, Alex cooks lunch for Chichay. Alex's gesture forces Chichay to spend more time with Ryan.

Heartaches Chichay has desperately tried to bury resurface as she watches Alex take care of Ryan. Things get even more complicated for Chichay when she learns that Juliana is coming over for a visit.

Though Jaime and Juliana persist in keeping Ryan from the reach of the people in his past, Kit and his friends find them and uncover the truth behind Joaquin's absence and Joaquin's alleged reconciliation with Chichay. Chichay, on the other hand, finds herself in serious trouble once again when Jaime and Juliana learn that a certain Cristina Tampipi is working for Ryan. Ethel tries to help Chichay out but Jaime sees her with his own eyes.

Much to Chichay's relief, Jaime pretends that he has not seen her but asks Chichay to stay away from Ryan as soon as her contract ends. After Patricia asked for his help, Pedro goes to Laguna and helps Chichay finish the mural so they can leave at the soonest possible time. Meanwhile, Alex begins to feel suspicious about Ryan's feelings for Cristina as she notices her boyfriend's discomfort while looking at Chichay and Pedro's sweet gestures toward each other.

Ryan's unpredictable mood puts a strain on his relationship with Alex. Things escalate when Ryan finally admits to Alex that he is attracted to Chichay. Meanwhile, gloom starts to creep over Chichay after she finishes her project with Ryan, marking the end of their short reunion.

Despite her best efforts to put the past behind, Chichay finds herself crossing paths with Ryan and Alex. Powerless against the will of fate, the three are forced to confront their own insecurities and fears.

Things become more complicated as Ryan's fondness for Chichay continues to grow despite being clueless about their past. Wanting to save Alex from further hurt, Ryan decides to end their relationship. Meanwhile, Chichay opts to stay away from Ryan to save her and her family from another conflict with the Manansalas.
