Nirvana

Following the death of her mother at only five years old, Lucy had no choice but to live alone with her father, who handled his grief poorly. By being unable to move on, he affected her life adversely in many ways. The only source of solace in her life at that time was a friendship she formed with a mysterious boy of the same town where she lived, which eventually evolved into a crush. Now, as time passed and Lucy grew older, she wanted to make sense of her earlier recollections of that boy, only to find out that he was nowhere to be found, leaving her questioning everything she once believed.

When a rift forms between the two, all hope seems lost and Kaylee is forced to move on. But later, when fate finally decides to twist in her favor, Kaylee is given a second chance to fix their romance.
