Something Between Then and Now
44 parts Ongoing She was the girl who always followed the rules-the eldest daughter from a well-off family, the quiet achiever who excelled in her studies but hid her heart behind logic and restraint. An accountancy student turned successful accountant, she lived by discipline and precision, convincing everyone-including herself-that love was never her priority. But deep down, she longed to be seen, understood, and loved for who she truly was, not just for what she could achieve.
He, on the other hand, was everything she wasn't-an engineering student with effortless charm, a campus heartthrob, the kind of person whose laughter filled rooms and whose warmth drew people in. They were worlds apart, yet she couldn't help but admire him from a distance throughout their college years.
Until one day, with her friends' encouragement, she took the risk she never thought she would-confessing her feelings before graduation. His answer was simple, sharp, and unforgettable: "You're not my type."
Years later, fate plays its quiet game. At their college reunion, she's no longer the shy, unsure girl he once knew-now a confident accountant, woman chasing her dream of opening her own café. He's an accomplished engineer, still charming, but this time, it's his turn to notice her.
Old memories resurface, and unspoken words hang heavy between them. Can time and growth rewrite what once ended in rejection? Or will she finally realize that sometimes, the love you thought you needed isn't the one you were meant to find?
A story of second chances, self-worth, and the quiet strength of a woman who learns that being enough for herself is where love truly begins.
