Echoes of Miguel

Dr. Jiro has everything she could ever wish for-a successful career, a loving fiancé, Warren, and a bright future ahead. But when she and her childhood friend Miguel, also a doctor at the same hospital, are kidnapped by a vengeful patient's son, her world is thrown into chaos. After a daring escape, the two find themselves stranded in a dense forest, struggling to survive for three long months. During this time, Jiro's feelings for Miguel deepen, leading to a forbidden romance that changes everything.

But their return to safety unveils a heartbreaking twist: Miguel has been dead for weeks, succumbing to a bullet wound that became infected during their escape. What Jiro thought was their shared struggle for survival was only a figment of her mind-a desperate hallucination brought on by grief and trauma. As she grapples with this tragic reality, Warren, who never abandoned her side despite her emotional distance, helps her find healing.

Now, Jiro must come to terms with her past and accept the love she has in the present. In the end, she chooses to heal, marrying Warren and starting a family. But the memory of Miguel-the love she lost in the wilderness-will forever linger in her heart, like an echo from a life she could never truly have.
