Tenemos tres protagonistas masculinos, el eterno mejor amigo enamorado Carlos, el compañero de batallas Benedek y su primer amor que desapareció misteriosamente Alejandro. "El amor es importante pero las paz lo es más" Elena. ¿ quien ganara esta batalla? ¿ quien conquistará a la impredecible Elena? La imagen no es mia, derechos de autor a quien le corresponda. Gracias por leerme!!!
