Johan is now focus on clinical experience, with rotations on a private hospital in London after spending 4 years in college. After proposing to North, and hearing that beautiful "yes," his world feels steadier, even as the days grow heavier. Meanwhile, North, in his final year of Electrical Engineering, is stepping into the next chapter of his life. Between balancing his academic internship and handling Powerhouse Council, North faces his own kind of pressure-growing, letting go, and chasing a future he once only imagined. Their lives are busier than ever. Schedules don't align like they used to. Time feels shorter, and distance creeps in. But love, the kind they built slowly and fiercely, continues to guide them through. Through different paths, through long nights and quiet mornings, through everything. This is the story of two young men who found each other-and are now learning how to hold on, not despite the storm, but because of it. A story of commitment, ambition, and choosing each other again and again- through time, through change... through us.

"Even when the world gets loud, love knows how to speak softly." A year after their slowburn relationship, Johan and North are no longer just two people drawn together by chance-they're each other's favorite constant. Johan, now a fourth-year medical student, is stepping into the fast-paced world of clinical rotations, chasing his dream of becoming a surgeon with unwavering focus. North, meanwhile, is thriving still as the Powerhouse Council President, leading with heart, innovation, and his signature easygoing charm. Life is busier than ever. Their days are packed with responsibilities, meetings, hospital rounds, and endless deadlines. But love? Love has found its rhythm in the quiet moments-the late-night video calls, the surprise visits, the comforting words towards each other, and the simple fact that no matter how far apart they are during the day, they always find their way back to each other. In this next chapter of their journey, Johan and North learn that love doesn't have to be loud or grand to be real. Sometimes, it's in the way Johan remembers North's favorite after a long shift. Or how North cheers Johan, just to feel closer when they're apart. Their matching rings were the symbol of their never-ending love for each other. To North, Always is a soft, heartwarming continuation of The Heart's Compass-a celebration of love that adapts, strengthens, and stays steady, even when life gets busy. Because some hearts don't just fall in love. They grow in it.
