Have you ever heard of a friendship crush? That strange feeling that lingers between admiration and love. It's not just wanting to be friends, but it's not quite something you can name, either. Just a quiet pull to get closer, to understand someone more deeply, without a clear reason why. Orm felt that for Lingling, a girl always within sight, yet never truly part of her world. They weren't friends, merely two people who knew each other from afar. And yet, for reasons she couldn't explain, Orm wanted to know her more. But the courage never came. Until graduation separated them, and that feeling slipped away, unspoken, unresolved. Then, fate brought them back together. In a foreign city, far from home. Under the sky of Melbourne, Orm, a student on exchange, searching for a place to stay and Lingling, offered her a place in her own home. What should've been ordinary turned complicated. There were tremors that shouldn't be there, emotions they couldn't control. And when their time was up, they returned to being strangers. But fate, it seemed, wasn't quite finished with them. Years later, they met again. This time, in Tokyo. Orm thought the feeling had died. But it hadn't. It had only been asleep-now awake, stronger, clearer, and far more painful.

In a world ruled by legacy, two women are forced into a marriage neither of them wanted... but fate might have other plans. Orm Kornnaphat is a spoiled heiress - fiery, dramatic, and used to getting her way. She's the rebellious daughter of a powerful food export empire, more interested in stuffed toys and late mornings than boardrooms and responsibilities. When her family forces her into an arranged marriage, she's furious - especially when her bride turns out to be the mysterious stranger who once helped her on a night she can't even remember. Lingling Kwong is the definition of composed. Cold, calculating, and beautiful, she's the only child of the Kwong business dynasty and a boss feared by everyone - but apparently not including her new wife. For Ling, obedience is survival. She's always done what's expected of her, even if it means marrying a bratty stranger for the sake of business and family pride. Thrown into a high-profile marriage neither of them asked for, Orm and Lingling become unwilling partners in a game far bigger than themselves. From chaotic mornings to silent car rides, office wars to stuffed toys invading private spaces - they're learning that hatred, annoyance, and sarcasm might just blur into something else when you're stuck in the same home, same office... and the same destiny. Love isn't part of the plan. But fate? Fate doesn't care what they planned.

Orm Sethratanapong-spoiled, sassy, and utterly unapologetic-finds herself at the center of a public scandal after an outrageous, champagne-fueled catfight at a rooftop bar. To contain the damage, her family hires Bangkok's top lawyer, Lingling Kwong-a cold, razor-sharp professional who just wants to clean up the mess and move on. But what happens when the fixer becomes the problem? Just a heads up! This story might include some steamy moments or mature themes (👹). Nothing too wild, but read at your own discretion!

Orm's feelings for Lingling evolved. She initially admired her platonically, starting at age 11. As she grew older, this admiration became romantic love. This change marks a shift in their relationship from friendship to romantic interest.

When Orm wakes from a devastating accident with no memory of the last decade, the woman who claims to be her wife, Ling, is a stranger. Their love, their shared history-gone, wiped clean from Orm's mind. Ling, desperate to hold on to the life they once had, faces a heart-wrenching challenge: how to love a woman who doesn't recognize her, doesn't remember the bond they built together. As Orm pieces together fragments of her past and a new life begins to unfold, Ling grapples with thye painful truth-her memories of love might never be returned. In this fragile new reality, both must navigate the blurred lines between who they were and who they might become. Can love truly endure when all that was once familiar is lost? Or will the cost of rebuilding be too much to bear? Disclaimer! This fanfiction is a work of fiction and has no affiliation with real events, people, or organizations.

Planning my cousin's wedding is a piece of cake. Until a stuck up person from my past appears... as an unexpected guest. Lingling Kwong. It was hate at first sight and it still is. It's not because she's a grumpy and stuck up, or because we're polar opposites who bickered our way through summer camp. It's the stinging rejection of a failed first kiss that's haunted me for the past twelve years.
