The best way to live in a sinful and harsh world is to choose your battles wisely. That was what the 23-year old Tayla Del Mariano knew ever since she was forced to live in a house with owls. The girl thought that staying silent and not arguing with fools will make her life easier closer to her goal: To build a better life for her younger brother, Terren. Believing that she will reach her dreams, she worked so hard. But she got fed up with her family's treatment and met the silly Auton Smith who happened to be her new landlord, but she didn't know that those small talks and silly acts would make her fall. Everything was in its right places, until something happened which led the mute beauty's voice to howl. "I am here every time you stumble! This was the only reason that I've got! How can the both of you afford to pay me back like this?!"
