Prologue

People say your first love is unforgettable.

For Celeste Villanueva, it wasn't unforgettable because it lasted.

It was unforgettable because it didn't.

What started with a simple compliment, a pair of Instagram Notes, and late-night conversations slowly became a love that felt like home. But as the seasons changed, so did the people who once promised to stay.

Told through stolen glances, shared songs, quiet apologies, and the words left unsaid, seven months later. is a coming-of-age story about first love, growing up, and learning that sometimes the hardest person to let go of is someone who's still there.

Because not every love story ends with forever.

Sometimes...

it ends with learning how to say goodbye.
