When Lily-Anne was four, her parents divorced and her littler sister Iris was hospitalised. Shy and quiet at school, she didn't have many friends. She barely spoke to anyone and no one spoke to her. The only person she trusted was her best friend Ryan. She had known him since they were both little and were closer to each other than to their own families.
At twelve years old, Ryan moves away to America, leaving Lily-Anne alone with no one to talk to. Afraid that others would leave her, Lily-Anne shuts herself away from the world, her voice becoming quiet until not a single word is able to come out of her mouth.
Now she's sixteen, exams are coming up but the past is catching up to her, just as a familiar brown-eyed boy walks back into her life...
