All Chai Javier prioritized in life were her family and careerㅡthe perfect encapsulation of a mundane, predictable lifeㅡbut Maddox Esperanza's entrance was a bolt from the blue, exploding her gray walls with bursts of light and hope.

Stumbling upon each other would be the last thing they'd wished for especially with scars invisible to the naked eye still in the process of mending themselves and seeking remedy. Even after their efforts to push every existing memory of their love aside, if destiny persists to intervene, then perhaps just one encounter would be enough to reignite the spark back to their cherished past.
