The One I Couldn't Escape

Selena and Rieco grew up as childhood neighbors, their mothers being best friends. Ever since they were young, the two never got along, but Rieco secretly admired Selena, and his feelings only deepened as they grew older. He openly showed his affection, while Selena constantly denied her own feelings because of a painful incident from their childhood. Eventually, she confessed her love, and they thought their relationship would be simple and happy.

But everything changed when a tragedy struck Selena's life. At the same time, Rieco discovered a long-hidden secret from his mother: his father was alive and he was actually an heir to the powerful Wong family, one of the richest in the country. Selena, who had already endured hardships after losing her father as a baby, faced even greater struggles. Overwhelmed by the truth, both Rieco and Selena suddenly disappeared from each other's lives.

Will this love-born from rainy-day coffeeshop talks and stolen glances across crowded train platforms-still find its way back, or will it vanish like the unread letters hidden in her old journal, leaving two strangers who once held hands under monsoon skies to wander separate worlds forever?
