Abdul never expected Zarah to see past the walls he'd built around himself. Behind his quiet smile lies a storm battles with mental health, the shadows of toxic relationships, and the weight of pretending to be okay. Zarah, with her unshakable compassion, refuses to look away. But loving someone who's breaking isn't easy. Together, they'll face the illusion of happiness, the raw truth of vulnerability, and the fight to find light in the darkest corners. This is more than a story about a crush it's about love that heals, hope that refuses to fade, and the courage to hold on when the world says let go.
