Cathy's friend Sofia faces her own dilemma. Encountering a man from her past, Sofia is given the opportunity to return to her hometown, Naples. It would mean escaping her own troubles in the Sixteen Streets... if only she dares take the chance.

Cathy and Sofia have worked hard to shed the sorrows of their youth. But maybe by revisiting the past, they can work towards a happier future...
