Smile

Everyone said Hana was sunshine.
The kind of girl who made broken things feel whole just by existing. But no one noticed that she only fixed others never herself.

So when Aidan, the boy she had secretly loved for years, whispered late at night, "I just want her back..." referring to his ex, Hana smiled. She told him she'd help. She told him he deserved happiness. She didn't tell him her heart cracked a little with every word.

She became his wingman, his confidante, his comfort. Every time he doubted himself, she was there reminding him of his worth. Every time his ex hesitated, Hana was the one who gently pushed her back into his arms.

And every night, when she was alone, she cried into the same pillow that muffled the words she never said: "But what about me?"
