Lena is used to being invisible. A scholarship student from a poor family, she blends into the background of university life — unnoticed, unbothered, and mostly alone. Her only comfort? Her small circle of friends, including her beautiful and outgoing best friend, Mia.
Adrian is everything Lena is not: rich, confident, and effortlessly charming. When he joins their friend group and openly falls for Mia, Lena assumes he’s just another guy chasing the obvious.
But when Mia rejects him, it’s Lena who stays behind to pick up the pieces. What starts as quiet comfort becomes something deeper — long walks after class, inside jokes they only understand, and glances that last too long.
Adrian never meant to fall for Lena.
Lena never imagined someone like him would look her way.
But love, like life, doesn’t always go according to plan.
