Clarabelle has always believed that love is a risk she could never afford. Lumaki siyang nakikitang maraming babae ang napilitang isuko ang mga pangarap nila dahil sa maling tao, kaya ipinangako niyang hinding-hindi niya hahayaang mangyari iyon sa kaniya. Choosing her dreams over love became the safest bet she could make.
Then she meets Enzo. What begins as an unexpected friendship slowly becomes something she never planned for. Between late-night conversations, quiet moments, and the uncertainties of growing up, Clarabelle finds herself falling in the one way she swore she never would. Maybe love was never the enemy after all. Maybe the right person doesn't ask you to choose between love and your dreams-they simply choose to walk beside you while you chase them, one slow fall at a time.
