THE ART OF ALMOST
Aurora Heights Series #1
by MISZYWITCH
They met on a hospital rooftop-two kids dragging IV poles, one trying to end his life, the other just trying to keep hers together.
Arabella Grace Zobel never believed in fate. Not until she saw a boy with dark gray eyes and a blood-soaked bandage stan
ding on the edge of a rooftop. Kyle Allison Villaflor-quiet, distant, and too calm for someone flirting with death-was the last person she expected to save. Yet in that fleeting, reckless moment, their lives became intertwined.
What started as a series of accidental encounters between two wounded eleven-year-olds turned into something far more fragile and real. Between vending machine sodas, sarcastic arguments, and quiet silences that didn't feel so heavy anymore, they learned what it meant to almost live-and almost love.
Years later, fate pulls them back together in a world louder, colder, and far more complicated than before. The rooftop is gone, but the ghosts of that afternoon remain-unspoken words, unfinished promises, and the memory of a boy who once said, "You're here. Pipigilan mo na naman ako."
"The Art of Almost" is a story about survival, timing, and the kind of love that never quite disappears-only waits to be found again.
