A tragic accident bound Isabelle and Noah together, making them inseparable ever since. To Isabelle, Noah became her saviour, her compass, her everything. She has loved him for as long as she can remember-silently, fiercely, hopelessly.
But while Noah treasures their bond, he only sees her as his dearest friend-someone to protect, someone like a little sister. To Isabelle, he is the forbidden fruit she can never taste, the love she can never claim. And yet, her heart refuses to let him go.
As the years pass and Noah finds love elsewhere, Isabelle is forced to stand by his side, hiding her heartbreak behind a supportive smile. Every laugh they share, every secret he entrusts her with, only deepens the ache of loving what was never hers to have.
Torn between the love she cannot silence and the reality she must accept, Isabelle begins a journey of self-discovery-learning to find strength beyond him, and perhaps, a future without him.
This is the story of a love, forbidden longing, and the quiet courage it takes to let go. Because sometimes, love doesn't stay... but if it's meant to, it always finds its way back.
