2 years after losing her beloved dog to kidney failure, Avory has retreated into a solitary world. Grief-stricken and emotionally numb, she isolates herself from friends, avoids school activities, and spends her days in the comfort of her home-reading, watching movies, and baking. Her routine is a shield against the pain of her loss, and she's built walls around her heart that no one has been able to breach.
That is, until Kai enters her life.
Kai is different from anyone Avory has ever known-kind, patient, and persistent. He sees beyond the surface of her quiet, withdrawn exterior and gently pushes her to face the emotions she's buried for so long. Through their unexpected friendship, Kai helps Avory navigate her grief, reconnect with the world, and find a path toward healing.
But as their bond deepens, Avory begins to wonder: Can she truly move on from the past, or will the pain of losing her dog always keep her locked in isolation?
"The Healing Path" is a heartwarming story of recovery, friendship, and the power of human connection. It explores how the presence of one person can make all the difference in helping someone find their way back to life after loss.

Kai and Ryu's lives were never meant to intertwine in the way they did. In a world where silence often speaks louder than words, their connection grew in the quiet spaces between their conversations-moments of vulnerability, shared smiles, and a bond that felt too strong to ignore. Kai, with his open heart and determination, has always been comfortable with who he is. But when it comes to Ryu, the boy who hides his heart behind walls of doubt, Kai finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew about love and trust. Ryu has always kept his emotions locked away, scared of the vulnerability that comes with giving himself fully to someone. Haunted by fear and insecurity, he finds in Kai a source of solace-and also his greatest fear. Can he really open up? Can he truly allow someone to love him, just as he is? As they navigate the challenges of high school, societal expectations, and their own hearts, Kai and Ryu learn that love is not just about finding the perfect person-it's about accepting each other's imperfections, growing together, and trusting that no matter how hard things get, they are stronger side by side. With every quiet touch, every tear shed, and every shared moment of understanding, they realize that love isn't something you just feel-it's something you choose, again and again. But the question remains: Can they overcome their own fears and take that leap together into the unknown future? A story about love, fear, and finding yourself in someone else's heart. A journey of discovering that the most beautiful things in life are often the ones we can't see, but feel deeply. If you believe love can be as tender as it is fierce, join Kai and Ryu as they learn to embrace the love they never saw coming.
