MANILA, Philippines - Barbie Forteza is torn between Joshua Dionisio (left) and Jhake Vargas on GMA 7’s First Time premiering on Feb. 8.
The love team of Joshua and Barbie possesses a certain magic and though they are still too young, they remind everyone how wonderful it is to experience young love.

The series revolves around the lives of high school friends Cyndy Gomez (Barbie), a shy, average student; Lucas Ynfante (Joshua), a handsome, campus heartthrob and Baste Luna (Jhake), a cute, street-smart guy secretly in love with his best friend Cyndy.
