Orm, a bitchie and baddie young manager in the fashion department of a top magazine, has never been one for commitment or settling down. Meanwhile, Lingling, a web developer and the only daughter of the company's owner, brings a quiet strength and gentle patience that draws Orm in and pulls them closer together. What starts as a chance encounter slowly evolves into a profound love that changes Orm's view of herself. With Lingling, Orm finds someone who doesn't try to change her-but instead makes her want to change.

Ten years ago, Orm Kornnaphat entered an elite world believing kindness would be enough to survive it. She left broken, humiliated under a spotlight designed to remind her she did not belong. The girl who ran away that night disappeared completely-no explanations, no closure, no mercy asked. What no one knew was that Orm never stopped becoming. Now, she returns as the ethereal, untouchable CEO of the Sethachon Group, moving through boardrooms with quiet authority and deliberate grace. Her presence alone disrupts carefully ordered hierarchies-especially for Lingling Kwong, the once-untouchable heir who never expected the past to walk back into her life wearing power. As Lingling finds herself drawn to Orm, the woman she once dismissed, long-buried guilt resurfaces and the balance of power begins to shift. Orm's return is poised and intentional, forcing Lingling to confront consequences she never truly faced. Attraction grows where dominance once ruled, and desire tangles dangerously with remorse. Bound by circumstance, a business alliance, and a carefully arranged engagement, the two are pulled into a relationship neither fully controls. What begins with rivalry and reckoning slowly blurs into something far more complicated-where emotions are weaponized, intentions remain unreadable, and vulnerability becomes the greatest risk. Inspired by the dramatic hierarchy of Meteor Garden and the high-stakes corporate tension of K-drama's Business Proposal, this is not a story about first love. It is a story about power reclaimed, wounds that refuse to fade, and what happens when the person you broke learns how to rise-and chooses whether or not to forgive.

In the stolen moments between sutures and sighs, between exhaustion and hope, love quietly took root-tender, unshaken, as if it had always been waiting for them. It bloomed in whispered names exchanged in dimly lit hallways, in the way their hands brushed as one passed a scalpel to the other, in the way time seemed to still when their eyes met across the chaos of an ER. It wasn't written in textbooks or planned in schedules, but it was there-written in the language of glances that lingered too long, in the silent comfort of a touch that spoke more than words ever could. It was in the way one's steady presence softened the other's burdens, in the way their laughter became the only cure for sleepless nights and heavy hearts. Perhaps it was destiny, a love etched into the stars long before they ever met. Or perhaps it was fate's most beautiful gift-two hearts, once strangers, now irrevocably entwined. A love so profound, so breathtaking, it felt less like a choice and more like a calling-like they had spent lifetimes searching for each other, only to find home in one another's arms.

"Back when you were Ayla, I knew where I stood. But now... seeing your world - Sasina, I feel so small. Everyone here looks at me like I'm nothing but some stupid piece of trash." - Tawan. Sasina Sethratanapong is an 18‑year‐old heiress from one of Chiang Mai's old rich clans. When she learns that she is being forced to marry Kit-her childhood friend, in a union she does not want-she runs away from her family. She flees to Khon Kaen and adopts a new identity: Ayla Ruengkhunakhon. The night Ayla arrives in Khon Kaen, she is rescued by Tawan and Khatou from two drunken men. Learning that Ayla has nowhere to stay, Khatou takes her home. Ayla begins living with Khatou's family and helps Mae Koy in the canteen, a place where Tawan-an engineering student slash mechanic-often hangs out. When Tawan first sees Ayla, she senses something unusual. She is mesmerized by how beautiful she is. Ayla, in turn, notices Tawan-whom she found stunningly beautiful and handsome at the same time. Is that even possible? Mae Koy adores Tawan. And so as a lot of girls in the campus, especially Chanya. It's attraction at first sight as Tawan and Ayla try to figure out what love really means-first love, first kiss, first heartbreak. Their love is tested when the Sethratanapongs discover Ayla in Tawan's arms and take her back to Chiang Mai. An heiress and a mechanic-there's a vast gap between their worlds. Is love enough to bridge that gap? LINGLING KWONG AS TAWAN SAEWANG ORM KORNNAPHAT AS AYLA/SASINA SETHRATANAPONG Warning 🔞 G!P TawanxLing

Ling Kwong lives in a quiet house that hums with the sound of rain and the faint, haunting melodies of her own mind. At thirty, she is both woman and child - a rare condition she's lived with since she was fourteen, when her parents discovered that her sense of self sometimes drifts into a childlike state. Protected all her life, she has never known the world beyond her home's iron gates. Until Orm Kornnaphat Sethratanapong arrives. Orm is a pianist - patient, warm, and quietly lonely. She is hired by the Kwongs to teach Ling piano, but she soon realizes that her student is unlike anyone she has ever met. Ling's laughter carries innocence, her gaze burns with a woman's longing, and her hands tremble between playfulness and passion when they touch the piano keys - and sometimes, Orm's own. As the lessons continue, the house fills with unspoken tension: the way Orm's voice softens when she guides Ling's hands, the way Ling's eyes follow her like a secret prayer. But when Orm learns the truth about Ling's condition, fear wraps around her heart. Can she love someone whose mind sometimes drifts away from her - someone who is both a child in spirit and a woman in soul? Ling, however, is certain. In her lucid moments, she knows what she feels - and she's willing to fight for it. Even when her parents disapprove. Even when Orm pulls away. Even when her own mind betrays her.

For G.T

This is not just a love story. It's a war waged in silence, a devotion written in bruises and flight tickets - but also in healing touches and homecomings that feel like miracles. Ling and Orm are two women bound by something stronger than fate - a love so fierce, so all-consuming, that time and distance only make their hearts grow more certain of what they've found. Spanning years, continents, and heartbreaks that eventually teach them how to love better, these stories unfold in glances finally shared, in voices breaking with relief over phone lines, in the sacred spaces between almost losing everything and finding each other again. This is a collection of moments - stolen, shattered, salvaged, and ultimately treasured - from a relationship that refuses to die because it was always meant to live. A universe where love doesn't just whisper. It also sings. It burns, yes, but it also warms. It waits at terminals and finds you there. It aches in empty bedrooms but dreams of full ones. Here, love is not always kind, but it is always worth it. It will wreck you, then rebuild you stronger. It will make you abandon fear and cross oceans not just for a chance to see them again - but for the certainty that some people are worth every risk, every sacrifice, every leap of faith. In the world of Ling and Orm, separations are temporary deaths, but reunions are eternal resurrections. Airports become places where souls recognize each other. Regret becomes wisdom. And sometimes, the only way back to someone is through everything that broke you - so you can love them with all your beautiful, hard-won pieces. These stories are for the ones who still hope after the credits roll, for those who believe some souls only ever come in pairs, and for anyone who knows that the greatest love stories are the ones where two people keep choosing each other, again and again. Enter if you're ready to hurt beautifully, heal completely, and discover that some loves really can conquer all.

Now, fate brings them together again-but not in the way either expected. Due to rising threats against Ayla, her mothers hire Tawan as her personal bodyguard. Though Ayla is thrilled to see her first love again, old wounds and new responsibilities threaten to keep them apart.

Ayla must choose between her family's expectations and her own heart. Can love survive when the world keeps pulling them apart? Will they be able to rewrite their fate-or will they remain star-crossed, forever chasing what could have been?
