Lisa Manoban and Jennie Kim were inseparable since preschool - the kind of friendship that felt like forever. But forever was tested when Lisa returned to Thailand for college, leaving Jennie in South Korea to chase her dream of becoming a superstar. Years later, fate intertwines them again: Lisa, now a powerful CEO, and Jennie, a world-renowned idol, meet unexpectedly in Los Angeles - a night that changes everything. They part ways again, carrying a secret that will follow them back to Seoul. Between fame, expectations, and old feelings, Lisa and Jennie must decide if childhood promises can survive adult realities.

It's the longest book I wrote Jennie and Lisa's story is one of love tested and love renewed. From high school sweethearts to partners navigating careers, family, and the public eye, they learn that passion alone isn't enough - love demands patience, sacrifice, and choosing each other again and again. After nearly losing everything to distance, jealousy, and silence, they reconcile not just in private but proudly in front of the world. With their children's laughter anchoring them, their friends cheering them on, and their own hearts finally unafraid to be loud, they find their way back. This time, the love is deeper, bolder, and forever. "They almost lost everything-but love that survives the storm comes back louder."

Jennie Kim wanted her first boyfriend to be perfect. Someone she could be proud of. Lisa was not all that. She was the campus nerd, and girl for that matter... her friends call her Nerdy Long Legs because she's tall and lanky. And worst, she was her girlfriend. And she's ashamed of that. However, as the saying say, you'll only realize how important a person is, is when you lose them; that happened to Jennie. She lost Lisa on the night of her debut party. After many years, their path crossed once again. But Lisa was far different from the Lisa she knew when she was younger. Would she do the same mistake she did seven years ago?

In the heart of Seoul, where wealth defines status and love is a privilege, three souls from different worlds find a friendship that defies all odds. Jennie Kim - The "Princess of Korea," heiress to the Kim Empire, the most powerful conglomerate in the country. She is the epitome of grace, beauty, and intelligence. Despite her privileged life, Jennie is warm, bubbly, and full of life. She dreams of a love that is pure and untainted by power. Kim Jong-in (Kai) - A young, successful CEO from a well-respected family. He is charming, polite, and the perfect gentleman. Kai has everything-money, power, and looks-but his heart has always belonged to one person: Jennie. Their love is admired by many, the definition of a perfect couple. Lalisa Manoban - A girl who grew up in hardship, abandoned as a baby and raised in an orphanage. She earns a full scholarship to JK Academy, the most prestigious school in Korea. Despite her struggles, Lisa is bright, hardworking, and fiercely loyal. She treasures Jennie and Kai more than anything, even if deep inside, she carries a secret-she has always loved Jennie. But she knows that some love is meant to be silent, hidden behind a smile. Despite their different backgrounds, the three become inseparable. They share laughter, dreams, and unwavering loyalty. They are Seoul's golden trio-breaking the barriers of class, showing the world that friendship can exist beyond wealth. Yet, under the surface of their perfect bond, emotions remain unspoken. Jennie and Kai's love is celebrated by everyone, while Lisa watches from the sidelines, swallowing her own feelings, believing that true love sometimes means staying silent for the happiness of others. "We may come from different worlds, but our hearts beat as one." That is their promise. But when love, fate, and sacrifice come into play, will their friendship stand the test of time? ---

**INT. COFFEE SHOP - DAY** Jennie and Lisa sit across from each other, the air heavy with unspoken words. Jennie's hands grip her coffee cup tightly, her knuckles white. Lisa stares at the table, unable to meet Jennie's gaze. **JENNIE** I have to pay because you lied. Do you even realize what you've done? **LISA** I'm sorry... because I lied. Jennie's voice cracks, but she holds back her tears. Lisa reaches out, her hand hovering over Jennie's, but Jennie pulls away. **JENNIE** Sorry doesn't fix this, Lisa. You broke us. You broke *everything*. Lisa's shoulders slump, her tears falling silently. The space between them feels infinite. --- Love and lies often intertwine, creating a fragile balance. Love seeks truth, yet lies can mask pain or protect feelings. While honesty strengthens bonds, deceit can erode trust. True love thrives in transparency, but lies, even well-intentioned, risk breaking hearts. In the end, love's purity is tested by the weight of lies.

BOOK 1: Where You Left Us Lisa (G!P) Lisa and Jennie were never more than best friends-at least, that's what they always told themselves. But one spontaneous, vulnerable night blurred the lines between friendship and something more. Neither of them expected anything to come from it... until Lisa found out Jennie was pregnant. Confused but trying to be brave, Lisa turns to Jennie, hoping they'd face this unexpected journey together. But Jennie, overwhelmed by fear, the weight of her image, and her own personal demons, chooses to walk away. With just a note and a goodbye that felt more like a betrayal than closure, she disappears from Lisa's life-leaving her to face parenthood alone. Now, with a newborn in her arms and no idea what she's doing, Lisa must learn how to raise a child, cope with heartbreak, and find strength in the silence Jennie left behind. She's not just figuring out how to be a parent-she's figuring out how to live without the person she thought would never leave. But the story doesn't end there. As Lisa builds a new life for herself and her baby, Jennie's absence lingers like a ghost in every milestone and midnight cry. What happens when paths cross again-not because of love, but because of the child that never asked to be caught in between? Lisa must decide if she'll reopen old wounds... or protect the new life she's built.

For once, she finally decides to disobey. Some may consider her plan as what weakling would do, though she does not agree so. She believes for the best of everything, for her love to be safe, as well, for the best of them to be separated. To reiterate what she said "I did what is the best for us."
