“I only want you, Maximus. I already told my parents that I love you and I'm going to marry you. No one else.” Aurora indignantly exclaimed. Max was shaking his head from what he heard. “No. No. You’re not being fair, Aurora.” He felt himself losing his strength as well as any chance to change her mind. Max leaned his body at the back of the single chair, almost sitting on it. He tugged on his necktie, needing some more air. His gaze fell on the ground. He’s powerless against his father. He won’t be able to protect his girlfriend from his family. He didn’t notice that Aurora was already in front of him. He just felt her palm on his cheeks, caressing it gently. He looked up to her. “You’re not fair.” He mumbled weakly. Like a defeated child. She’s rubbing her thumb against his cheeks. “The world’s not fair, Max.” Shaking her head. “It’s never fair.” She commented breathlessly. “You get everything you want.” He ignored her actions. He’d gone numb all over. This girl was too much of everything. Too selfish to even understand how he felt. “No. I don’t have your heart.” Max swatted her hand away and stood up straight. He chuckled at her response and halted. He shook his head as he looked at her straight in the eyes. “You won’t. You don’t even have one.” ************** Aurora Fontalva got everything except the heart of a certain man. She only wants Max. But how can she make him fall for her when he already had someone?

Your mom will give us her blessings because we’re perfect together!" she texted with a wink emoji, secretly pouring her heart out. They met in a group chat online, got close, and before she knew it, Nike had caught feelings. But now, they were drifting apart. Jimi’s response? A sarcastic laugh.

His cold attitude and constant delays left her feeling emotionally drained. How could she make him see that her feelings weren’t just some silly crush? Her friends teased her endlessly: "What do you even see in him? Is it the deep Yoruba voice or the fine face?" she’d roll her eyes and snap back, "Please, mind your business!"

Independent and confident, she was building the life she wanted. She joined a vibrant community of aspiring actors, musicians, and influencers. She was happy, with the past starting to feel like a distant memory… until a new guy showed up in her group. Handsome, familiar, and… Jimi. What happens when old feelings collide with a new chapter in the city that never sleeps?
