SYNOPSIS (ENGLISH)

A simple girl, Maya dela Rosa (Jodi Sta. Maria), her older sister, Cristina Rose, and Cristina's son, Cho, are introduced as tour guides in their hometown of San Nicolas, with their mother running a souvenir shop. Money is often less than the living expenses and household repairs. Cristina Rose hopes to work at sea, while Maya dreams of becoming a flight stewardess. One rainy night, after an attempt to fix the roof, Cristina breaks her leg and is thus unable to complete her schooling to become a seafarer. With a large medical bill, Maya deems it necessary to work overseas for two years to help her family. Upon arrival in Manila, Maya discovers that the woman who had offered work overseas had swindled her. Maya is stuck in Manila with no money or place to go. Relentless, Maya allows no one to stop her, not even the handsome, wealthy widower Richard Lim (Richard Yap), who reminds her of her shortcomings.

Ironically, Richard is her last hope because of his influence in the airline industry. He offers Maya to become his youngest daughter's (who has selective mutism) temporary nanny in exchange for his help. Maya agrees to become a maid and nanny in his household. Upon entering the Lim home, she finds herself involved in the private lives of Richard and his three problematic children: Luke (Jerome Ponce), Nikki (Janella Salvador) and Abby (Mutya Orquia).

Maya realizes that since Richard's wife died, the family's joy died with her; hence their problems. Maya is tasked to bridge Richard to his children and eventually she succeeds in rebuilding the family. However, in repairing their broken hearts, Maya encounters bigger challenges that test her determination and, more importantly, her heart. While fulfilling her obligation, she falls in love with the Lim children and, admittedly, with Richard.

SINOPSIS (MALAY)

Seorang gadis sederhana, Maya dela Rosa (Jodi Sta. Maria), kakak perempuannya, Cristina Rose, dan anak lelaki Cristina, Cho, diperkenalkan sebagai pemandu pelancong di kampung halaman mereka di San Nicolas, dengan ibu mereka menjalankan kedai cenderamata. Wang sering kurang daripada perbelanjaan sara hidup dan pembaikan rumah tangga. Cristina Rose berharap dapat bekerja di laut, sementara Maya bermimpi menjadi pramugari penerbangan. Suatu malam hujan, setelah berusaha memperbaiki bumbung, Cristina patah kakinya dan dengan itu tidak dapat menyelesaikan persekolahannya untuk menjadi pelaut. Dengan jumlah wang perubatan yang besar, Maya menganggap perlu bekerja di luar negara selama dua tahun untuk menolong keluarganya. Setibanya di Manila, Maya mendapati bahawa wanita yang telah menawarkan pekerjaan di luar negara telah menipu dia. Maya terperangkap di Manila tanpa wang atau tempat untuk pergi. Tanpa henti, Maya tidak membiarkan siapa pun menghalangnya, bahkan janda Richard Lim (Richard Yap) yang tampan dan kaya, yang mengingatkannya akan kekurangannya.

Ironinya, Richard adalah harapan terakhirnya kerana pengaruhnya dalam industri penerbangan. Dia menawarkan Maya untuk menjadi pengasuh sementara anak perempuan bongsunya (yang mempunyai mutisme selektif) sebagai pertukaran untuk pertolongannya. Maya bersetuju untuk menjadi pembantu rumah dan pengasuh di rumahnya. Setelah memasuki rumah Lim, dia mendapati dirinya terlibat dalam kehidupan peribadi Richard dan tiga anaknya yang bermasalah: Luke (Jerome Ponce), Nikki (Janella Salvador) dan Abby (Mutya Orquia).

Maya menyedari bahawa sejak isteri Richard meninggal, kegembiraan keluarga mati bersamanya; oleh itu masalah mereka. Maya ditugaskan untuk menjembatani Richard dengan anak-anaknya dan akhirnya dia berjaya membina semula keluarga. Namun, dalam memperbaiki hati mereka yang patah hati, Maya menghadapi cabaran yang lebih besar yang menguji tekadnya dan, yang lebih penting, hatinya. Semasa memenuhi kewajibannya, dia jatuh cinta dengan anak-anak Lim dan, diakui, dengan Richard.
