Sylvia Brown has spent most of her adult life helping others find answers while ignoring the questions she's too afraid to ask herself. By day, she's a dedicated teacher. By night, she's serving tables at the same restaurant she's worked at since high school. Always putting everyone else's needs first, Sylvia can't shake the feeling that she's living on the sidelines of her own story. Julian Alexander is used to being defined by other people. After ending his engagement to the woman he'd been with since high school, he's left questioning everything he thought his future would be. A soft-spoken art curator trying to build a life in a city that still feels unfamiliar, Julian longs for a place where he can simply exist without judgment, expectations, or scrutiny. When an unexpected encounter brings Sylvia and Julian together, they discover that beneath their carefully managed lives are the same unspoken fears: loneliness, uncertainty, and the exhausting weight of pretending they're okay. As friendship blossoms into something deeper, they'll have to confront old wounds, release the versions of themselves they've outgrown, and learn that sometimes healing begins only after we've stopped holding our breath. After We Exhale is a heartfelt romance about second chances, self-discovery, and finding the courage to finally breathe again. _______ Beautiful cover designed by @stxrsfxll_

A small poetry book that tried to express a story of when anxiety becomes a reflex action and depression a daily routine, how love finds its way to us and never truly leaves despite countless people twisting its definition or the challenges fate throws ruthlessly to question its faith.
