Always, Almost Everything
In the final year of high school, everything is supposed to make sense; your friends, your future, your place in the world. But for one girl, everything begins to unravel just when it should all be coming together. After a sudden breakup and growing distance from her friend group, she's forced to navigate heartbreak, pressure, and the kind of loneliness that no one sees from the outside. As she drifts further from who she used to be, she starts making choices that challenge her values and test the limits of her identity. But healing comes slowly-in quiet moments, new friendships, and unexpected clarity. Told with honesty, heart, and the soft ache of growing up, this is a story about falling apart and finding your way back. It's about the people who leave, the ones who stay, and the version of yourself that you fight to become.Complete
