Leelah was in a funk. Her family knew it, her friends knew it, even her dogs knew it. How could she not know it herself? She wasn't stupid. She knew why she was in a funk. She knew it wasn't healthy, she knew her family and friends, and even her dogs were worried about her. She knew that she had to get over it and move on. What she didn't know was how. It was like she had stepped out of the lane of the living and was now having trouble getting back into it.
Raiden Feng was in a similar situation. Raised in a family with strict ideas of success, family, and duty, Raiden has worked hard to be at the top of the business world. He is known to be aloof, ruthless, and single minded. His work was his life. Nobody would guess the rediculously rich tycoon was feeling bored with the monotony of his narrow world.
Can two, seemingly VERY different individuals help each other out of the holes they are both stuck in? with so many differences, there are bound to be obstacles and misunderstandings. But maybe they are just what the other needs to return to life.

Arin never meant to fall apart. Not loudly. Not dramatically. Just quietly - one bad day at a time. At fourteen, he feels invisible at home, disconnected at school, and trapped inside a mind that won't slow down. His friends want popularity. His parents want perfection. Arin just wants to breathe. After a night where everything cracks, Arin begins the slow climb back - through music, drawing, new friendships, and the quiet moments that rebuild a person when nobody's watching. A story about breaking, healing, growing, and learning to stand again. Not perfectly. Just honestly. A deeply emotional coming-of-age journey for anyone who's ever felt lost between who they were and who they're becoming.
