Before they were parents... they were just kids trying to live. In the sweltering summer of 1982, twelve Black teenagers in suburban Atlanta are dancing through their final year of high school-desperate to taste freedom, but too young to see the dangers lurking in their blind spots. Between cassette tapes, stolen kisses behind lockers, and the haze of roller rink lights, they chase dreams and each other. Friendships blossom and combust. Love ignites-and sometimes burns. They juggle part-time jobs, strict parents, street temptations, and the looming pressure of what's next. College. Work. Survival. Escape. This is the last summer before everything changes. And while most of them are just trying to make it to graduation, a few of them are already playing with fire. Secrets are spreading. Tensions are growing. And a single bad choice could cost more than just a future-it could cost a life. Because when emotions run wild and love turns obsessive, not everyone makes it out alive.

Sometimes, time doesn't erase love-it just makes it harder to face. Sienna Klementine and Kim Taehyung were inseparable in college-two souls who found each other in the middle of chaos and dreams. From study sessions to secret kisses under campus lights, they built a bond that felt like forever. But a few months after graduation, something changed. A slow unraveling.

Sienna is a daycare teacher carving out a quiet life in the city, while Taehyung is a music teacher. Neither of them expected to feel it again-the pull, the ache, the memories.

Whenever Sienna Klementine sees his boxy smile, she feels something she hasn't in a long time-peace. At Breckenridge High, senior year is supposed to be about prom plans, college applications, and lasting memories.

He's kind without trying, quiet but not shy, and there's something about the way he sees her that makes her question everything she thought she knew about love. In a world full of loud boys, Taehyung is the quiet reminder that sometimes the softest presence can leave the loudest impact. 𓆩♡𓆪 Or in which... Sienna falls in love with a boy whose smile feels like a warm embrace-while still tangled in a relationship she no longer recognizes. At Breckenridge High, love is messy, feelings are louder than words-and one boy's smile might just change everything.
