𝓯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗮 𝗵𝗮𝘆𝗲𝘀 grew up in cousin's summers and manhattan winters, the childhood friend who was always at jeremiah's side. when her family left for new york, she became a memory-a laugh in the background, a shadow trailing behind.
𝓬𝗼𝗻𝗿𝗮𝗱 𝗳𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗿 never asked to remember her, and yet he did. quiet, careful, and carved from silence, he built walls out of discipline, duty, and the weight of his own name. now, on the cusp of his medical career, he swore there would be no distractions.
until she arrived in his hospital bed-fractured, furious, and impossible to ignore.
to him, she was jeremiah's ghost.
to her, he was the boy who never looked her way.
but underneath the cold stares and unspoken history, 𝓼𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 began to ache.
and not even professionalism could stop it.
