It aired from April 23, 2007 to August 31, 2007 on ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida starring Piolo Pascual and Claudine Barretto It is loosely based on Mike De Leon's 1985 film Hindi Nahahati Ang Langit, an adaptation from an earlier komiks version of the same title by Nerissa Cabral.
Ariston and Agnes (played by award winning actors Edu Manzano and Dina Bonnevie) are childhood lovers who reunite. Ariston and Agnes are on their second marriages: Each lost their loves and has children. They decide to marry. Ariston has young Noel played by Sam Concepcion and young Melanie played by Julia Barretto. As they grow up, they transform into beautiful siblings but grow hatred toward one another. Fate has different plans them.
Noel is intelligent but causes a lot of tension in the household when Melanie comes into the picture. When Melanie grows up, she and Noel try to get along, but things don't go too well until they have their first kiss. They realize their love for one another but end up miserable as the death of their parents seem to make things even more complicated. The question that arises is "Is love a sin, even if not connected by blood, or is it just immoral or real?"
Long-time sweethearts Ariston and Agnes find themselves ready to marry and settle down after the losses of their married partners. They have children from their previous marriages: Noel (Sam Concepcion later played by Piolo Pascual the son of Ariston) and Melanie (Julia Barretto-Padilla later on played by Claudine Barretto). The two do not develop a good relationship as step-siblings, and the idealization brings them to many personal problems leading them to love. Noel confides in Agnes and Melanie confides in Ariston.
They live peculiar lives: Noel has always longed for his father's attention while Melanie wants a perfect family consisting of a father, mother and sibling. As the two grow Melanie becomes rebellious and Noel becomes more well accomplished.
Melanie creates mayhem unexpectedly for Noel and causes him to be blamed. Rather than facing the harsh realities, Noel takes an offer from his friend Brian (DJ Durano) to get a job and learn in Australia, to leave personal problems between Ariston and Agnes. Noel begins to live a fast life accomplishing his goals but is completely unaware that even Melanie misses him. Melanie plans to see Noel on a summer vacation to Australia, with Ariston and Agnes.
