Summary
Childhood friends are separated when they are 6. The boy stays in their home country, where fate forces him into a life of misery and despair. Broken by the trauma of having his only friend taken away from him and all the misfortune that follows, he decides never to truly open to anyone again.
The girl's family moves to the U.S. where her father makes it big, and she – several unsuccessful escape attempts. Eventually, her father becomes a non-issue and she inherits his massive fortune. After that, she returns home and eventually finds her friend as he is about to start high school, but the accumulated guilt and years of living a delusion make her feel inferior to him, and undeserving of his attention. She doesn't confront him.
Instead, she joins his class and stalks him. Protects him. After she learns about his decision, she decides to dedicate her life to making him happy and finally confronts him. He is overjoyed to be reunited with her but rejects her at first, arguing that she doesn't actually love him but a delusion, one she created in the years after the trauma; that he is damaged and worthless and that she deserves so much better.
Will the broken boy and girl fix each other?
