Sable doesn't believe in people anymore.
She doesn't believe in love, or hope, or the idea that things ever get better. Most days, she just gets through her shifts at Taco Bell, drives home in silence, and pretends the world isn't moving without her.
Then one night, she wanders into a basement show in Columbus, Ohio. Two guys on a small stage - Tyler and Josh - play songs that sound like survival. She doesn't clap. She doesn't smile. But something in her chest stirs for the first time in years.
When Tyler crosses her path again at a local poetry night, he doesn't try to fix her. He just listens. Slowly, through quiet conversations, bad jokes, and late-night writing sessions, Sable finds herself drawn into their small, messy world of music and meaning.
She still hates most people.
But she likes them.
Over the years, the three of them build something fragile and real - songs born from pain, poems turned into lyrics, laughter that fills the empty spaces she thought would never heal. And even when she pushes them away, they stay.
Because sometimes it doesn't take a miracle to save you.
Sometimes it only takes a friend who refuses to leave -
and the smallest flicker of something worth feeling again
