Mirae. A girl who has been a trainee at JYP Entertainment, for nine years; or should we say, the ONLY trainee left without debuting for some mysterious reason. She was the girl who tried so hard to be famous, she was the girl who wanted to follow her dreams, she was the girl who wanted the world to hear her voice instead of only her parents. When she lost all her hope and passion to debut, she asked JYP to work anything at the company instead of going back to Australia and make her parents disappointed. She assisted a lot of younger groups but now, she doesn't know that she's going to be THE housekeeper / assistant of a boy group called STRAY KIDS. What seemed like an end might just be the start of something unexpected.

Quinn Parker is the girl everyone thinks they know-perfect grades, perfect hair, perfect smile. But behind the polished image is a secret she guards so tightly that not even her closest friends see the cracks. Ryder Bennett has spent years pretending he doesn't care about anything, least of all Quinn. He used to make her life miserable in middle school, and she's never forgiven him for it. Except now, the more time they spend in the same orbit, the harder it is for either of them to ignore the pull. They argue. They tease. They cross lines and retreat. And somewhere in between late-night conversations, stolen car rides, and the weight of things unsaid, Quinn starts to realize Ryder isn't who she thought he was-and maybe she isn't either. In a world where appearances matter and silence feels safer than honesty, two people who were never supposed to trust each other might be the only ones who actually can.
