A normal girl you could meet walking down the block but with a not so normal past; Saisha.
Saisha struggles to express her connection with a teacher that joined her school just months ago. The teacher, who's also the vice-principal's daughter, brings light to Saisha's life, the type she never knew she needed. As she's stranded amongst the chaos of figuring out the unfamiliar emotions the new teacher ignites within her, a new boy joins her class.
The first time they met, each had in their minds to not have to see the other one ever again, but who knew, the same day they'd make a deal that'd bring them closer over time. What happens when the dark past interferes the present, oblivious to the people living it? What happens when the whole existence of the teacher suddenly seems like a lie? The uncovered truths lie beneath the dust until Saisha herself flicks it off, one by one while fighting the new battles that charge her way.
"When I reached towards you,
I felt you at my fingertips.
You stayed close, but far enough
for me to not touch you.
And, when I felt you slipping away,
I thought, as they quote,
'You cannot lose something you never had.'
So maybe, unknowingly so,
You'd already became; my home,
for long enough
that now I had to watch you go.
I wish I knew it all before."
Summer is intoxicatingly beautiful and she knows it. Everyone wants to be her. Everyone wants to know her.
What no one understands is Summer is not as perfect as she seems. Not by a long shot. And trying to hold it all together is like silently suffocating inside her own head.
Until she somehow stumbles into Ace, who is as beautiful as he is cruel. He takes what he wants and doesn't care how he gets it. Pushing people away is what he knows and no one dares to get close enough or else they might get ripped to shreds.
Summer doesn't trust Ace. She doesn't want or need him. He's frustrating, stubborn and doesn't care about anyone but himself. But a part of her can't help but feel drawn even as destructive and explosive as he seems to be.
