Pond built his life on control. Young CEO. Untouchable reputation. A man people fear more than they understand. Phuwin, on the other hand, has spent his entire life trying to be easy to love - studying harder, smiling softer, apologizing quicker... even when no one notices how exhausted he really is... Someone who overworks himself just to feel wanted. Someone painfully easy to overlook - except Pond notices him immediately. And that becomes the problem. Pond starts remembering whether Phuwin ate. Phuwin starts feeling safe beside someone everyone else fears. But when hidden truths inside the company begin surfacing, misunderstandings grow sharper, and emotional wounds they buried for years start breaking open... both are forced to confront one terrifying question: What happens when two people who never learned how to be loved become each other's home?
