It is written with an intention to immortalize someone. Someone that burns between being known and unknown. May your heart remain kind but never kind enough to forgive me. May the rally of your pain and frustration etch a landmark in my reverie.

Dr. Hope Eloise Sullivan has always known how to survive anything with a smile. A joke here, a tease there, a well-timed punchline to soften every blow. When things get complicated, she laughs louder. When something hurts, she talks faster. Humor is her shield, and she wears it effortlessly. Atty. Zantasia Cazhielle Leviste, on the other hand, is precision personified. With her, everything is measured. Every word deliberate. Every emotion folded neatly where no one can reach it. She does not fidget. She does not overshare. She does not unravel. If Hope is chaos wrapped in sunlight, Zantasia is structure wrapped in silence. One hides behind laughter. The other behind control. They move through life exactly as they should. Professional. Untouchable. Perfectly aligned with what the world expects of them. But somewhere between denial and desire, between beautiful hope and beautiful goodbye- how do you walk away from something that feels like it was always yours?
