Nice Knowing You, Ms. "No Touching"

Alliyah Arceta (The Protagonist) is rich, smart but prefers to be alone and always wanted to keep a low profile.

But that changed when she met her bestfriend, Mavis Lim. She had the time of her life and changed her in a very good way.

Their friendship was great until she developed feelings.

She confessed to her bestfriend but unfortunately Mavis value their friendship and focuses more on her study.

Eventually, they drifted apart when Mavis discovered Alli's secret admiration towards her.

Alli got into an incident where she was held captive by someone who has strong desire for her Father's wealth.

She was saved, however she acquired trauma called Haphephobia. In layman's term it is simply means a "Fear of Touch".

Since then, Alli started to hide, living in the dark, alone- away from everyone.

She seek both healing and the truth with the help of her therapist who's been in love with her and consistently ensuring Alli of healing and security.

Until then, being touched or skin to skin contact may have great effect on her mental health and physical appearance which may cost her life.

Her past nightmare remained a mystery and it is still haunting her.
