Amparo Cecilia “Aci” Bermudez, nicknamed "Miss Pink" for her vibrant pink attire, is a 27-year-old Filipina singer with a captivating blend of naiveté and resilience. Standing at 5'6" with an athletic build and weighing 49 kg, Aci possesses striking features: honey-colored skin, long black hair, an oblong face framed by thin eyebrows (constantly enhanced with eyeliner), brown almond-shaped eyes, and full, expressive lips that create a captivating smile, especially when she's wearing makeup. Her beauty is undeniable, yet often overshadowed by her endearing clumsiness.
Aci's life has been marked by hardship. The verbal abuse she endured from her stepfather after her father's death significantly impacted her self-confidence, leaving her prone to moments of bewilderment and blank stares even in simple situations. However, her unwavering determination ensures she perseveres, no matter the challenge. Her passion for singing, inherited from her mother, remains her anchor, a source of strength and self-expression. Her mother's death from pneumonia prompted Aci's escape from her abusive stepfather, an act of courage born from desperation.
A childhood accident—a fall from a tree resulting in a three-day coma—bestowed upon Aci the unique ability to see and interact with ghosts and spirits. These spectral companions, constantly vying for her attention and assistance, add a layer of surreal chaos to her already complicated life. It was while fleeing a particularly boisterous group of spirits that she stumbled upon the Barge, a luxury cruise ship for the departed souls of Kasanaan. Mistaking it for a regular vessel, she auditioned and secured a singing position, unknowingly signing a contract binding her to the underworld.
Her life aboard the Barge is a stark contrast to her previous experiences. She encounters Raymond Azrael, the stoic and cynical captain, the only other human on board. Initially dismissive of Aci's perceived naiveté and clumsiness, Raymond gradually finds himself captivated by her infectious cheerfulness, kind heart, and, most importantly, her extraordinary voice. Their relationship blossoms into an unexpected romance, defying the grim setting and the supernatural elements surrounding them. Aci's journey is one of self-discovery, resilience, and finding love in the most unexpected of places, a testament to her unwavering spirit and the power of music to transcend even the boundaries of life and death. Her unique ability to see spirits, coupled with her inherent kindness, makes her a vital part of the Barge's operation, bridging the gap between the living and the departed. Her story is a poignant exploration of overcoming adversity, embracing one's gifts, and finding love amidst the extraordinary.
