But everything begins to shift when she meets Ayan. Kind yet persistent, he sees the broken pieces she tries so hard to bury. Slowly, with his warmth and patience, Celina starts to rediscover what it means to live, to trust, and to breathe again.
As her guarded world starts to unravel, Celina must face the truth about her past-and decide whether she can truly let go and embrace the life waiting for her.
