A story of love, courage, self acceptance, and breaking expectations.

Ethan Nguyen has always been the dutiful son-top grades, polite manners, and a bright future that mirrors his mother's high expectations. But when he meets Calvin Kim, a charismatic and free-spirited artist at his high school, Ethan's world shifts. What starts as a tentative friendship blossoms into a deep and undeniable love that makes Ethan question everything he thought he knew about himself.

Calvin is everything Ethan never knew he needed: confident, kind, and unapologetically himself. But their budding romance faces an unrelenting obstacle-Ethan's mother, whose rigid beliefs and homophobia cast a shadow over their happiness.

Caught between the love of his life and the family he's always tried to please, Ethan must decide whether to stand up to his mother and fight for the love he and Calvin share or risk losing the one person who makes him feel truly alive.
