Amelda (Amel) and Fabian (Abi) have been matched since they were very young. Now Amel is in high school, very obsessed with matchmaking, she is sure that her soul mate is a handsome, romantic man. The same thing happened to Abi, who was very sure that his soul mate was a beautiful and elegant woman. However, it turns out that Abi and Amel eventually met at Amel's school, with Abi as a new teacher. But unlike Abi's expectations, it turned out that Amel was too ignorant and childish. On the other hand, Amel was also disappointed, because Fabian was far from being the prince of her dreams, just a teacher who was stiff and curt when spoken to.
