Amelia used to believe she had everything figured out-a career in civil engineering, a love she thought would last, a future built on certainty. But sometimes, certainty crumbles. And when it did, she walked away. From the job, from the relationship, from the version of herself that no longer felt real.
Now, she runs a quiet little café, where life moves at a slower, safer pace. She's content, or at least that's what she tells herself. Her best friend keeps setting her up on blind dates, five so far, but none have left an impression. Then comes Fahim, a doctor with a calm presence and a patience that unnerves her. Unlike the others, he doesn't try too hard. He doesn't push. He's just... there.
She doesn't know what to do with that.
As their paths continue to cross, something about him lingers-his steady way of understanding, the quiet spaces he doesn't rush to fill. But the past has a way of catching up, and when it does, Amelia is forced to confront the silence she's been carrying.
Somewhere between holding on and letting go, she has to decide: is she still running, or has she finally found something worth staying for?
"I don't need someone to fix me, Fahim. I just need someone who won't leave when I fall apart." - Amelia
"I'm not here to fix you, Amelia. I'm here to stay-even when the pieces don't fit perfectly." - Fahim
