When the Clock strikes 2025

In the quiet comfort of his hometown, 24-year-old Brent never expected to fall in love-not when he'd already made a promise that bound his heart to someone else. Two years ago, he and Azriel, a childhood friend, vowed to be together once 2025 arrived-a pact born of youth, hope, and longing. But as the new year draws near, Brent finds himself drawn to Mika, a spirited, kind-hearted girl whose presence makes his hometown feel new again.

Now, with only months left before the promised date, Brent is caught between honoring a promise from the past and embracing the unexpected love growing in the present.

As time ticks down, Brent must confront what love really means-and whether it's loyalty to a promise, or the courage to follow his heart.
