Pond and Phuwin were each other's secret solace, a love story hidden in shadows and late-night whispers. But one mistake, one kiss with a girl named Star, shattered everything. Now, the halls are filled with silence, Phuwin's heart is aching with regret, and Pond has walked away, broken, betrayed, and believing he was never enough. Yet when rumors swirl and Star claims she's pregnant, everything spirals. The truth? Phuwin isn't the father. But by the time he finds the courage to face it all, Pond is gone.
In a world where secrets are safer than love, how far will you go to get back the one you lost?
A story of heartbreak, guilt, and a love fighting to survive even when everything else falls apart.
"He ruins reputations by morning, but speaks like a love song when he says my name."
(Book Cover Updated)-
At Laksara University, Pond is a name whispered with intrigue-tattoos, fast bikes, flunking classes he's too bored to attend, and a reputation for turning hearts into cautionary tales. He's the kind of boy who never apologizes, never explains, and never lets anyone get too close.
Until Phuwin.
Bright-eyed and endlessly sincere, Phuwin is the kind of student who greets security guards by name and brings extra snacks "just in case someone forgot." He's adored by professors, classmates, and even the stray cat that lives behind the chemistry lab. And somehow-*somehow*-he becomes the only person who makes Pond show up to class on time.
They're not supposed to mix. Pond is late nights and bruised knuckles. Phuwin is Sunday mornings and library laughter. But when Pond's voice drops to something soft-*only* for Phuwin-and he starts looking at the world like it might be worth staying in... rumors fly, hearts race, and everything begins to unravel.
This is a love story built between campus fights and quiet café corners.
The kind where the bad boy doesn't change-he just chooses to be better when *he's with you.*
