Books are just like us. They need to be seen and heard, their depths explored beyond what lies on the surface. Some stories wrap us in warmth and bring comfort, while others challenge us with harsh truths we cannot ignore. Their pages can be tangled and complicated, and plots may grow twisted as layers of meaning unfold. But who will step forward to reshape our paths if we don't know whose hand writes our life's story? Take Kenmarl, an ordinary boy who refuses to see his existence as merely time spent drifting toward an inevitable end, waiting for its final chapter to close. He spends his days asking who holds the pen to his fate, yet struggles to make sense of the pages he is already living through. He used to think the unexpected turns in his life were just mistakes or oversights by whoever is writing his story. But then, one unplanned kiss is the real turning point that completely transforms his life in ways he never could have imagined.

Some decisions come with a cost. And sometimes, departure is not just about leaving a place, but leaving a part of yourself behind.
