Description
Lisa doesn't believe in love anymore - not after the person she trusted the most tore her apart and left her drowning in guilt. She keeps her heart locked behind sarcasm, silence, and the cruel comfort of "whatever happens, happens." She tells herself she's moved on - that friendship is safer, that numb is better than broken. And then there's Jennie. The girl who sees past Lisa's walls. The one who stays. Who listens. Who reaches out even when Lisa pulls away. They're best friends, nothing more - at least that's what they keep telling themselves. Lisa who views the world expecting chaos - instead finds something she never saw coming: warmth, understanding, and the kind of acceptance she thought didn't exist anymore. But hearts don't follow rules, and pretending not to care doesn't make the feelings disappear. How do you trust love again when you're still bleeding from the last one? "Why are you so distant when I'm here? When I'm giving me to you?" "It scares me." "There's nothing to be afraid of."
