Plot

After the whole Salvador family mourned the loss of their eldest child Gabriel, Don Joaquin returns from Manila after going on some business trips, especially with a promise of giving souvenirs to his children. While Carmina is finding her gift, she discovers a dirty-looking boy in front of her eyes, attracting the attention of Milo and Yaya Adora. Apparently, the boy was an orphan and he was found by Don Joaquin in Divisoria but because of his good intentions for the orphan, he decided to adopt him and named him Gabriel after the deceased eldest child. Gabriel was accepted by the family except for Milo, who has hostility toward him. One afternoon, Gabriel and Carmina went to the shores' cliffs, playing together imagining the lives of royalty, similar to the tales of princes and princesses. Carmina becomes close with Gabriel, telling him that he is not an orphan, only an ordinary person. By the time they returned home, Milo shows up and starts blaming Gabriel for stealing his horse and attention to his father, leading the latter to be attacked and beaten by the former. Milo's unacceptable behavior towards his adoptive brother caused his father to banish him to live in Manila with his aunt instead until he changed his intentions.
