Elisa Ridley would’ve jumped to her death if it weren’t for Marc Khader who entered the picture and plunged into a conversation with her at the edge of the cliff as if the situation was nothing concerning. But when Marc introduced himself and clearly showed no sign of familiarity to her, a question mark came spiraling down to Elisa’s mind and a million-dollar question sprung up: "how in the world has he completely forgotten about me?"
To Marc, her life was alarmingly a concern. But to Elisa, his amnesia was a lot more of a concern to her than the catharsis camp, her life, the edge of the cliff, and everything else altogether.
Because Marc Khader did not remember her at all, this gave her a thousand and one reasons to live—for him to remember.
The Sad Side of Happy is a story that shows what time could tell, and what time could heal. It tells a story of the turns of friendship, family, and love. The Sad Side of Happy is a tale that narrates the perspectives of different hearts and minds, significantly different from the other. And all collide in a quiet intersection, and though they don’t share the same stories and experiences, they still find comfort in each other’s words, and perhaps find something else in the process, too.
