The city never sleeps.
Not in St. Cecilia Hospital where surgeons move like ghosts.
Not in the neon clubs where DJs scream life into the night.
Not in the small Pilates studio where tired bodies go to breathe again.
Jennie Kim, a cardiothoracic surgeon, carries her exhaustion like perfume-sharp, expensive.
She saves lives with steady hands and breaks hearts with silent eyes.
Everyone says she's cold.
Everyone's wrong.
She just learned early that emotion is a luxury she cannot afford.
Ruby Jane Kim, her identical twin, is everything Jennie isn't.
Wild. Loud. Brilliant.
A DJ with neon hair, glitter on her cheekbones, and chaos in her bloodstream.
She burns too brightly, too quickly, and too close to danger.
But beneath the noise, she aches for something real-something that doesn't leave at sunrise.
And then there's Lisa Manoban.
The girl with sun-warm skin, soft eyes, and a calming voice that could quiet storms.
A Pilates trainer by day, the city's unofficial therapist by night.
People fall for her without meaning to.
Her kindness is gravity.
Her smile is a soft landing.
Jennie meets her first.
In a moment of weakness.
A shoulder injury.
A late-night hospital corridor.
A quiet, grounding touch.
Ruby meets her next.
In a moment of chaos.
A backstage mess.
A pounding bassline.
A smirk exchanged in the shadows.
Neither twin realizes they have fallen into the same orbit.
dragged toward the same sun.
But Lisa is not alone in this universe.
Rosé watches from afar, hiding a love she never confessed.
Jisoo watches Rosé, loving her from a distance.
Lalina "Lena" Manoban, Lisa's sister, watches Ruby with a fire she refuses to name.
And Natasha-Ruby's ex, the ghost in glitter-watches everything burn with a quiet smile.
And it all begins the night Lisa says the words that will change everything:
"Maybe,we don't have to be exclusive."
Jennie's heart cracks.
And Lisa
sweet, warm,gentle Lisa
has no idea she has just opened the gates to a war she cant control.
