Lilly:
I've spent my life in a gilded cage, a piano my only companion. My parents' relentless expectations have turned music into a weapon-one that cuts deep with every forced note. I despise the sound that once filled our home with laughter; now it feels like a prison. Then I meet Zayn, the wild guitarist whose cocky grin and reckless passion infuriate me. He sees me not as the perfect daughter, but as someone desperate to break free. And that infuriates me even more.

Zayn:
Music is my rebellion, my escape from a world that tried to silence me. With every strum of my guitar, I pour out the pain of losing my family, refusing to be tamed. Then I cross paths with Lilly, a girl wrapped in luxury yet chained by her own life. Her disdain for music sparks a fire in me; I'm determined to break through her walls, even if she makes it clear she wants nothing to do with me. 

As they clash and challenge each other, their heated rivalry takes unexpected turns. Can they transform their animosity into something more profound, or will the dissonance between them drive them apart for good?
