Set in a small, tight-knit office, the story follows a young woman who has been silently yearning for her charming yet reserved co-worker. To her, he seems like the perfect match-witty, intelligent, and kind. However, as she gets closer to him, she discovers that his heart is still tethered to a painful past: the memory of his late girlfriend, who tragically passed away five years ago.
As the woman tries to navigate her growing feelings, she faces an emotional dilemma: How do you open a door that remains closed to everyone but a ghost? Through moments of quiet connection, subtle heartbreak, and gentle understanding, both characters must confront the spaces within them that love and loss have shaped. Will they find healing in each other, or will the shadows of yesterday hold them apart?
At nineteen years old, about to graduate from Eden Academy, Damian Desmond realizes he has to make a decision that could change the course of his future. However, secrets revealed from the past can shake this young man who, deep down, all his life, just wanted to be loved.
