15 parts Ongoing MatureIn a world where appearances deceive and success doesn't always mean fulfillment, Ryan Ferraro and Misha Verma exist on opposite ends of the spectrum-yet they are bound by an unspoken emptiness.
Ryan, a man who seemingly has it all-power, wealth, and a name that commands the skies-finds himself haunted by an ache he cannot name. No amount of achievements, no boardroom victories, can silence the quiet discontent gnawing at him. He has built an empire, yet within its towering walls, he feels alone.
Misha, on the other hand, has learned to survive in a world that never truly belonged to her. A daughter bound by expectations, a woman fighting to carve her own path, she has spent her life proving her worth to those who refuse to see it. With every step she takes toward freedom, the weight of her past threatens to pull her back. She has nothing, yet she clings to hope like a lifeline.
Two souls drowning-one in excess, the other in absence.
When fate forces their paths to cross once more, old wounds resurface, and unspoken words fill the silence between them. But in a world where both have learned to endure, will they find solace in each other-or will they prove that some voids are never meant to be filled?
