Born from the union of the Devil and a mortal woman, Keiysy Lesham Maheswari was cursed with a deadly smile. Her mother perished giving birth to her, leaving her to the mercy of her diabolical father. In an unprecedented act of desperation, the Devil begged God to allow Keiysy to be raised by humans, concealing her true identity and curse until her eighteenth birthday. For years, Keiysy lived a normal life, unaware of the dark fate that awaited her. But on the brink of adulthood, the curse awakened when she was nearly killed by bullies at school. Now, her friends are mysteriously dying, and Keiysy is caught in a whirlwind of confusion and fear, unaware that her smile is the harbinger of death. As her world unravels, Keiysy must uncover the truth about her origins, confront the dark legacy of her father, and find a way to break the curse before she loses everyone she loves—or becomes a tool of darkness herself.

"If looks could kill, I would be dead just by looking at you."

But what if you really died?

SMILE 4 M3

The first day of school after a long break always felt like chaos and comfort rolled into one. The comforting part was slipping back into the usual routine with my closest friends: Meri, Arga, Abi, and Daffin. The chaos? Well, that was mostly Arga. 


“I swear, I’m going to pass out if I don’t eat something soon,” Arga groaned dramatically, slumping over his desk as if he were moments away from fainting. 


“It’s 10 a.m., Arga,” Meri said, rolling her eyes while doodling on the corner of her notebook. “Didn’t you have breakfast?” 


“I did,” Arga admitted, his voice muffled against the desk. “But that was hours ago! My metabolism is like a freight train. I need sustenance.” 


Abi smirked, tossing a candy wrapper at him. “What do you want us to do, order a catering service? Or maybe we should all start wearing chef hats just for you.” 


“I vote we make him forage for food during recess,” Daffin chimed in, laughing as Arga shot him a look of pure betrayal.
