In the choking corridors of high school, where futures are painted with perfect grades and plastic smiles, Aira is crumbling silently. Battling undiagnosed depression, an abusive home, and a desperate yearning to feel seen, she searches for something-anything-that feels like love.
Enter Rivan, a boy with dreams too big for his circumstances and a past too heavy for his smile. He's determined to escape everything he's been dealt, but fate has other plans: plans that look a lot like the broken girl who won't meet his eyes.
In a world where no one really listens and pain is hidden behind class notes and fake laughter, can two broken teens be each other's beginning instead of the next heartbreak?
