She wears headphones to silence the past. But some memories refuse to stay buried.
Eighteen-year-old Arabella-Nailea Ramirez keeps her head down - juggling college classes, late-night shifts at a bar, and life in a crumbling apartment with her unpredictable father. She's used to the bruises, the yelling, the silence. Used to taking the same little white pill every morning like clockwork. Used to the strange flashbacks she gets when things get too loud.
But when fragments of a woman's voice and the sound of a haunting lullaby begin slipping through the cracks in her memory, Arabella starts to wonder if everything she's been told is a lie - especially about the mother she's never known.
As she uncovers the truth buried in her past, Arabella must choose between protecting the only family she's ever had... or finally breaking free.
Dark, emotional, and unforgettable, this is a story about trauma, survival, and the courage it takes to remember.
