they say thunder is just a sound-an echo that fades as quickly as it arrives. but sometimes, it feels heavier than that. like a warning before something breaks, or a reminder of everything you've been trying to hold together. it comes suddenly, loud enough to be heard, yet impossible to fully understand-just like the emotions people try to hide behind silence. in the middle of quiet struggles and unspoken fears, two lives collide in ways neither of them expected. their encounters are filled with tension, distance, and moments that linger longer than they should. what begins as irritation slowly shifts into something more complicated-something that grows in the spaces between words, in stolen glances, and in the silence after every storm. because sometimes, thunder isn't just noise. sometimes, it's the beginning of something you can't control-and maybe, something you can't let go of.
