High school was supposed to be a fresh start. For May Osborne, it became a battlefield. One confession turned her into a target. Her friendships shattered. And the person she trusted most-Zack Dalton-stood by, watching as everything fell apart. But May refuses to be defined by whispers and stares. With her love for music, her quiet resilience, and a circle of unexpected friends who remind her of her worth, she's determined to rise above it all. Still, the past lingers-etched into every hallway, every silence, and the familiar boy with cat-like green eyes who once felt like home. This is a story of perseverance, healing, and self-discovery. Of learning to stand tall when the world tries to tear you down. Because sometimes, the hardest battles aren't fought with fists or words- ...but with the courage to keep going. 🏆 Story Milestones: ✨ Ambys 2025 R3 Qualifier ✨ Ambys 2025 R2 Qualifier ✨ Platinum - January 2025 30DC ✨ Platinum - February 2025 30DC ✨ 8CC - January & February 2025
