After the sudden loss of their parents, 22-year-old Kathleen-a second-year Psychology major-finds herself in the arms of her older sister, Freen, an overworked engineer carrying the weight of the world on fragile shoulders just to keep her sister alive, loved, and in school.
What begins as a promise whispered through tears at the memorial becomes a quiet battle: of burnt meals, collapsing hearts, missed medications, and guilt that never seems to fade. Even when exhaustion leads to shouting, slammed doors, and desperate disappearances-love never lets go.
When illness threatens to steal everything, it is in the stillness between life and death that Kathleen hears her sister's voice... and chooses to come home.
Alongside Rebecca, Freen's gentle-hearted partner-an architect who becomes more than just family-they build a home not with bricks, but with second chances, shaky laughter, and stubborn devotion.
But is that love strong enough to face what's been buried?
Kathleen and Freen always believed their parents died in a tragic car crash-just another cruel twist of fate. But grief has a way of burying questions beneath silence.
What if the crash wasn't fate... but a cover-up?
As hidden truths buried deep within the force begin to surface, the sisters-together with Rebecca-are pulled into a dangerous web that points to a secret enemy still watching from the shadows. With betrayal closing in and their safety on the line, can they survive what's about to unfold? Can they hold on to each other... and stay afloat?
This is the story of two women who never stopped fighting-for one fragile girl, for each other, and for a future where love quietly wins, every single day.
Will love be enough to accept the past-and withstand everything that's coming?
Will there still be a happy ending?
