The Out of Reach Dream

"Physical pain is more honest than emotional pain. At least it fades after five minutes."

For ten years, Pond has been chasing a ghost. To the world, Dunk is the perfect student and the ideal friend. To Pond, he is an unattainable dream, a star so bright it blinds anyone who gets too close.

But when June - the sharp-tongued provocateur who refuses to follow the script - forces his way into their closed circle, the "perfect" facade begins to crumble. A stolen kiss, a punch to the face, and a rainy night at a karaoke bar change everything.

Is it possible to fall for the one who broke your world, while the person you've loved for a decade becomes a stranger?

A story about toxic loyalty, the weight of family secrets, and finding one's voice in the middle of a shattered friendship.
