Two strangers.
Two hospital beds.
One paper-thin curtain between them.
Malik was never supposed to end up here - beaten, broken, and bleeding from a fight that spiraled out of control.
Jayah didn't expect to survive the night - betrayed, stabbed, and clinging to life after trusting the wrong person. Now they're forced to recover in the same hospital room, separated only by a curtain and their own silence.
They don't know each other.
They don't want to.
But pain has a way of peeling people open - slowly, quietly - until walls start to crack and truths begin to slip through.
This isn't a love story.
Not yet.
It's about what happens between healing and breaking.
Between pain and peace.
Between two people who were never supposed to cross paths.
but just might be exactly what the other needs.
