The Freshman (On Hold)

Melody is a quiet high school freshman, lost in the rhythm of her own thoughts. She finds comfort in her routine, carefully avoiding the spotlight. But her silence isn't just a part of her personality-it's a shield. A secret hangs over her head, a heavy weight wielded by someone who knows just how to use it against her.
When Dylan, a musically talented senior, notices Melody, he's captivated by her eyes speaking louder than her mysterious nature. He tries to get to know her, to break through the wall she's built, but Melody keeps him at arm's length. She's not ready to let anyone in, especially not someone who is more or less a stranger. Dylan's persistence puts him on a difficult path, and he may just fail in his pursuit.
At the same time, Melody finds herself growing closer to Alan, a fellow freshman who shares her love for love for music and deep conversations. Their friendship deepens as they navigate the confusing world of high school together, but Melody's secret threatens to unravel everything she's carefully built. With Dylan still trying to reach her and Alan getting closer than anyone ever has, Melody has to decide if she's strong enough to face her secret or if she'll let it keep her in the shadows forever.
