Adrian

The story follows Adrián, a handsome, popular guy loved by everyone at university, who is in a relationship with the protagonist. At first glance, they seem like a happy couple, but there's someone who holds a huge place in Adrián's life: Valeria, his lifelong best friend.

Adrián loves Valeria like a sister. He trusts her completely, protects her, and would do anything for her. He might even prioritize her over his own girlfriend when he feels Valeria needs his help. For Adrián, this affection is purely familial; he has never seen her romantically.

The problem is that Valeria is in love with Adrián. For years she's hoped that one day he'd see her as more than just a sister. So when Adrián starts a relationship, Valeria gets jealous and begins doing everything she can to win back his attention.

When Adrián introduces his girlfriend to Valeria, a complicated relationship begins between the three of them. Valeria tries to prove that she knows Adrián better than anyone, constantly seeking to be near him and attempting to become the most important person in his life.

While Adrián tries to keep the two people he loves most in his life, Valeria will have to decide how far she is willing to go to get the love she has always wanted.

In short: a college romance story about friendship, jealousy, and emotional conflicts, where a best friend in love tries to win over a guy who loves her deeply… but like a sister.

Important detail: Valeria has known Adrián since they were children and has always been in love with him. For years she convinced herself that one day they would end up together. That's why, every time Adrián gets a girlfriend, Valeria tries to prove that she knows him better than anyone and looks for any opportunity to win back his attention.
And the interesting thing is that Adrián never promised her a relationship. He truly considers her a friend, but Valeria interprets many of his actions as signs that one day he might choose her.
