Haunted by a painful past, a broken home, and her own insecurities especially her struggle with mispronouncing words she's spent most of her life trying to blend into the background. Until one quiet hospital room changes everything. There, she meets Kaizer a boy with a rare condition, a calm demeanor, and eyes that seem to see right through her. He doesn't ask questions. He doesn't judge. He simply listens. And for the first time in a long while, Ivy finds herself slowly coming undone in the safety of his silence. As their connection deepens, Ivy starts to feel seen in ways she never expected. But reality is never too far behind.
