blooming secrets

Moving to a new place wasn't really part of Nova's big life plan but when her university offered her a year abroad in Seoul, she couldn't say no. It was supposed to be simple: study, work a little, and maybe find a sense of peace far away from the pieces of her old life.

She never expected to end up in a tiny flower shop tucked between a café and a bookstore or to find comfort in the quiet routine of petals, sunlight, and soft music. For a while, that was enough.

Until he walked in.

A polite smile, a simple order for a bouquet, and a conversation that left her wondering why his voice lingered in her mind hours later. What Nova doesn't realize is that the stranger with the gentle eyes isn't just anyone and that one innocent encounter will begin to change everything.

When her flowers unexpectedly go viral, Nova's small world collides with his very public one.
Suddenly, she's caught between who she used to be and who she's becoming between staying invisible or letting herself be seen.

In a city that never stops moving, two people from completely different worlds slowly find each other in the quietest way possible.

Because sometimes, love doesn't bloom in the spotlight it grows in secret. 🌷
