-Artwork Belongs To Artist- Growing up, Zyra never fit in with the group of kids. She would try but didn't ever end up liking or wanting to be a playmate or be a friend to somebody that didn't even get her. No one would ever be her friend. She was just too... strange for other kids to find her normal. Dabria was someone that was a very smart person that was a quick study, she would ramble on about things kids her age didn't know about yet. People only encountered her if they needed help with schoolwork or homework. Dabria got into groups with geeks but they didn't know either so she gave up on friends and is a loner from now on.

Noa never forgot Eli-the best friend she secretly loved in high school before she had to leave without warning. A decade later, Noa has become a renowned photographer, known for capturing people in ways they've never seen themselves. Eli, now one of the world's top models, is untouchable-effortlessly beautiful, endlessly photographed, and always just out of reach. When Noa is unexpectedly assigned to shoot Eli for a major campaign, she braces herself for the inevitable collision of past and present. But when Eli greets her with the same easy charm she had all those years ago-without the slightest hint of recognition-Noa makes a choice. She doesn't remind her. What starts as a professional partnership turns into something more complicated. As they travel from city to city, working in foreign studios and sunlit sets, Noa watches Eli through her lens, searching for traces of the girl she used to know. The way she tilts her head, the way she laughs, the way she bites her lip when she's thinking-it's all still there. And yet, Eli remains distant, unknowingly standing on the other side of a story she doesn't remember. Noa tells herself it's enough to be near her again, to exist in Eli's world, even if she can never say what she really feels. But emotions are harder to edit out than a photograph, and the more time they spend together, the more Eli begins to notice the way Noa looks at her. Somewhere between the shutter clicks and stolen moments, Eli remembers and starts to wonder: has Noa always seen her this way?
