16 parts Ongoing MatureBeca Mitchell likes to keep her head down - sarcasm as armor, music as escape, and no one getting close enough to see the cracks beneath. She's got enough to deal with: a crumbling family, a secret she's not ready to face, and a future that feels more like a trap than a plan.
Then Chloe Beale crashes into her life - all bright eyes, soft laughs, and a flat tire in the school parking lot.
What starts as a reluctant act of kindness spirals into something else. Something quiet but insistent. Something Beca doesn't know how to name.
As the pressure builds - at home, at school, in her own chest - Beca is forced to confront the things she's spent years burying. Because the truth is, no matter how loud the world gets, it's what happens in the silence that matters most.
