13 parts Ongoing MatureIris is seventeen. She's quiet, she's tired, and she's used to being invisible.
At school, the bullying never stops. At home, her mother barely notices she exists-unless it's to criticize her. There's no one to lean on, no safe place to land. And the pain she carries? It's not just in her mind. It's carved into her skin, buried under skipped meals, and hidden behind fake smiles.
Every day, Iris wonders how much longer she can keep going.

Loud. Reckless. The kind of boy who doesn't care what anyone thinks. He's everything she isn't until, somehow, he notices her. Really sees her.
