Summary
Rumi has lived next door to Mira for four years, which should’ve been enough time to figure out her feelings.
It hasn’t.
Mira is everything Rumi thinks she isn’t: confident, beautiful, impossible to ignore, and somehow always a little too good at making Rumi fluster. Over the course of their senior year, what starts as painfully obvious pining shifts into something closer, softer, and a lot harder to pretend away.

Summary
Rumi’s rule was simple: Survive. With a three-year-old daughter, a baby on the way, and an ex who vanished, she has no time for anything but work and her Graphic Design degree. Rumi lives on the edge, trying to balance the chaos of being a single mom with the pressure of an uncertain future.
Mira’s rule was clear: No complications. Owner of Seoul’s most famous tattoo studio, she values precision and control. Mira has no patience for the mess of other people's lives and lives only for her art.
When the worlds of these two artists collide, the impact is immediate and negative. It’s hate at first sight—an encounter defined by judgments and tension. But in a city where the paths of design and ink constantly cross, they soon realize that running from each other isn’t an option. Now, they must discover that life doesn't always follow straight lines and that, together, they can draw their best contour.

Summary
When Mira impulsively tells her family that Rumi is her girlfriend, she doesn’t expect them to take it seriously, let alone demand that she bring Rumi to her brother’s wedding. Now they’re flying across the country together, sharing a hotel room, holding hands in public, and pretending to be a very convincing couple for one long, awkward, auntie-filled weekend.
As long as they stick to the plan, everything should be fine. Mira just has to make sure that her very real feelings for her best friend don’t ruin things.
What could go wrong?

Summary
Mira is the new teacher in school, and Rumi already hates her.
Dealing with her snarky comments in the teachers' lounge, to the way she shows up randomly to give Rumi another snarky comment about her eating habits, Rumi refuses to indulge in Mira's attempts at friendship.
Or Mira's attempts to grow closer in more ways than one.

Summary
“You know Valentine’s Day is coming up, and I…” Rumi’s fingers toyed with the edge of her notebook. She hesitated, then smiled certainly—like she’d made a decision. “And I—well, would you maybe—”
Mira didn’t let her finish.
The words tangled in her chest, sharp and panicked. She could already hear it—Jinu this, Jinu that. Some request for help picking something romantic. Advice she absolutely did not want to give—at least, not without a solid week to prepare herself. The idea of sitting there, nodding along while Rumi talked about her boyfriend, made something twist painfully in her chest.
“I’m so sorry.” Mira blurted, already shoving her chair back with an uncomfortable scrape. “I… I didn’t realize how late it was. I really have to go.”
__________
OR: Mira being oblivious while Rumi repeatedly hits her over the head with the "pls ask me out" stick. And then they fuck about it.
