A story about the devastating silence that follows a love built on years of secrets.
Trisha had loved him from the first day, keeping her devotion sealed away in notebooks for an entire year. She was certain he would never be hers-until he confessed first. Shocked, relieved, and finally vulnerable, she showed him the pages of her heart.
In that single, perfect moment, his response was a shy, blushing "oww."
Just hours later, he vanished.
His sudden, crippling fear of commitment forces him to run from the love he initiated, dismissing his feelings as not love, just feelings. To save him from the guilt of what he destroyed, Trisha forces a flawless smile and a terrifying lie she pretends she is fine.
But his inevitable neglect and inconsistent effort push her back into the cold, guarded life she fought so hard to leave behind. She is strong, but she is alone-left with the eternal, devastating question:
When you finally get everything you ever wanted, why do you run from it? And can a heart truly be unbreakable if it's permanently sealed?
This is a deep dive into self-sabotage, hidden anxiety, and the heartbreaking silence between two people who chose fear over everything.
