Ahaan isn't a morning person- except when it comes to his daily pilgrimage to that cafe. Nevermind that it's a 30 minute drive. There's someone who makes every extra effort worth it. if you'd told him a year ago that he'd be driving for a cappuccino and a glimpse of a stranger, he'd have laughed you out of the room. But fate loves a good plot twist. Because on a bright Thursday morning in 2024 at exactly 10:10, their eyes met over the hiss of the espresso machine. In that instant, Ahaan fell-first for the coffee, and then for the girl with the kind of smile that could turn a caffeine fix into a full blown habit and the kind of eyes that reminds you of your favourite coffee and forces you to drown in it.

Lee Riwoo - a second-year high school student known as Jaehyun's best friend, and the guy with the worst luck when it comes to love. He was that friend who gave others advice about relationships and dating - yet had no real experience himself. In his life, he'd had a few crushes - but, as you might guess, none of them ever worked out. Riwoo's life didn't hold any surprises or drama. Even though he had plenty of activities, hobbies, and interests... something was missing. Or rather, someone - a person close enough for him to truly rely on. Victoria Suxiao Lim was a girl who barely had time to think about rest or relaxation. Her life was filled with endless responsibilities - extra dance classes, violin lessons, part-time job at a café after school, and of course, studying for countless tests and exams. On top of that, her mixed heritage, a large extended family, and her naturally chaotic personality created constant disorder in her life - a whirlwind of change and surprise that never seemed to end. When Victoria moved to South Korea at the beginning of her first year of high school - the country where her mother lived - she never expected to meet someone as calm, composed, and understanding as Riwoo. Their paths crossed suddenly, completely by chance. Yet despite all the surprises and chaos that came with Victoria's arrival, Riwoo didn't want to step away - quite the opposite. Something about her kept pulling him in. Highest ranking: #2 in leeriwoo #3 in romantic story started: 14.10.25 ended: ~❤️~
