Marco Yuzon, is on a bookstore for a book signing event for his new book entitled, The Gifted. He begins the book signing by reading a few chapters of the book and so the story goes: A young Zoe Tuazon, a rich, overweight, aggressive and genius mestiza, with a young Aica Tabayoyong, a poor, far sighted, and abnormally large teeth girl, enter a school with their parents for an entrance exam. Both of the students' abnormal brain intelligence are not accepted by the school and transferred to to a higher school with better education. Both of them excel in different subjects such as Mathematics, English, History. One day, during a Religion Class, Zoe ruins her reputation by questioning the teacher's lesson. Then, the next day, Aica also ruins her name when she defecates during a Music lesson. The two, now outcasts, become good friends and plot evil plans on the school by poisoning students and a teacher, and booby- trapping the nun who Zoe questioned. The whole school fears them until high school came, Zoe and Aica, are fighting for the Valedictorian position. Zoe's mother convinces her to find Aica's weakness to get the throne. A new student, Mark Ferrer, an illiterate athlete, enters the school. Aica immediately falls in love with him leading Zoe to plot her evil plan. Zoe meets up with Mark and insisted him to fall in love with Aica while Zoe does his home works, and even make him copy her answers on quizzes. Not being attracted to Aica, Mark forces himself to date her. As the plan goes on, final exams were finished and the distribution of cards took place. Aica and Zoe compare their final averages only to find out they have the same average of 98.71 enraging Zoe. To make their daughter the class Valedictorian, Zoe's parents donated a building to the school. Zoe, now the Valedictorian became too proud of herself. On a restaurant after the graduation, Aica confronts Zoe about the unfairness of her parents and gives her a gift of pills and mayonnaise while Zoe gives her a toilet seat. Ending their friendship, Aica weeps as Zoe eats 5 layers of leche flan. Aica's parents ask her to stop seeing Mark. Mark leaves Aica happily as he was not interested with her in the first place. On the course of their college lives, Aica graduated as a Mathematics Major in Ateneo and Zoe graduated as a Neuro Science Major in Princeton both Suma Cum Laudes. Before returning to the Philippines, Zoe undergoes Plastic Surgery and becomes insanely beautiful, so does Aica. Both are now models and when both of them learns each others success, it angers them both leading to Zoe bumping on Mark, now a literate and American graduate. Zoe plots another plan against Aica and uses Mark to do it in exchange for Zoe to accept Mark's interest in her. The plan was for Mark to make Aica fall in love with him again and dump her afterwards. While on a tutorial lesson, Aica was accidentally visited by Mark (by Zoe's plan) and the two came back together. Realizing Aica really loves him, Mark's conscience eats him and decides to love Aica for real and erasing his deal with Zoe. Angering Zoe, she plots another revenge on Aica and shows everybody the animated video version of Aica defecating to the reunion that took place a few days later. Aica follows Zoe to her house and as she enters, a booby trap almost kills Aica (a shot gun). After several minutes of Zoe trying to kill Aica, Zoe finally gives up after Aica almost drowns her. The two made up when suddenly, Zoe reveals it was just an act and points a gun at Aica. Aica runs for her life only to bump into Mark, who shielded Aica from the blow, wounding his face. After the incident, Zoe's parents attempted to help Aica with anything she needs. Realizing they were good after all, Aica backs up the case against Zoe but she did not even seem sorry. Aica hands over a picture to Zoe. The picture was Mark's wounded face and Zoe bursts in tears. After several months, Aica and Mark, now newly weds enter their room to see a somewhat booby trap created by Zoe, as it finishes, it was revealed that it was a sorry gift from Zoe, realizing she was wrong all along. The gift was a picture of Aica and Zoe on their high school. The story ends with Zoe returning to the States on a plane. Marco Yuzon, having finished reading the book, started his signing and left the bookstore. On the parking area, a girl slams the book on his windshield revealing her to be Aica and with her was Zoe in their real appearances (unattractive and heavyweight). The two, whose real names are Mica (Aica) and Joey (Zoe) were very mad with Marco who was in fact their classmate since Elementary. The novel he wrote was a fiction about the two best friends. The two girls explained that Marco was the real one who got busted, who became cast away, who defecated his pants, who poisoned the students and who disobeyed the teachers and that Joey and Mica were real friends with each other. Due to insecurity of them being always on the top and he was always third place, he wrote the novel to put his anger towards them. Insulted that they were the topic of the book and Marco made Joey a lunatic, they insisted that Marco sign their book copies with his blood and started to beat him up.

Ex-Special Forces operator Frank Martin lives what seems to be a quiet life along the French Mediterranean, hiring himself out as a mercenary "transporter" who moves goods--human or otherwise--from one place to another. No questions asked. Carrying out mysterious and sometimes dangerous tasks in his tricked-out BMW, Frank adheres to a strict set of rules, which he never breaks. Rule One: Never change the deal. Rule Two: No names--Frank doesn't want to know whom he's working for, or what he's transporting. Rule Three: never look in the package. Frank's newest transport seems no different from the countless ones he's done in the past. He's been hired by an American known only as "Wall Street" to make a delivery; but when Frank stops along the route, he notices his package is moving. Violating Rule Three, Frank looks inside the bag, finding its contents to be a beautiful, gagged woman. Frank's steadfast adherence to his other two rules--which make up his basic code of survival--also quickly fails, hurtling him and his new companion on a road leading to shocking secrets, deadly complications, and the last thing that Frank ever expected to come to believe: that rules are made to be broken.
