The sky over the small town of Willow Creek was always unpredictable, just like love. Some days it shined bright, and some days it poured without warning.
Aarav never believed in love.
At least, not the kind people wrote about. Not the kind that made hearts race or kept people awake at night. To him, love was just a distraction—something that slowed people down.

But life had its own plans.
