Ilong has been taking care of his grandson Gilbert ever since he was just eight months old after his mother Elang left him to look for work in the city. Unfortunately, Elang fails to return to her firstborn after getting pregnant by another man. Since then, Ilong has worked so hard to provide for Gilbert, whose effeminate behavior he persistently shrugs off. Scared that his grandfather might not approve of his sexuality, Gilbert hides it from him and only openly expresses himself in school. Gilbert is about to enter college when Ilong starts losing jobs due to his old age and fails to provide for his grandson's education. (thetvdb.com)
