“Some people fall in love with people. I fell in love with possibility. With ambition. With a path that demanded all of me—except my heart.”
Kyle is a university student deeply in love, not just with a person, but with a dream. His course is everything to him—the foundation for a future he has spent his whole life preparing for. However, that passion evolves into a quiet storm when he meets Clara, his classmate.
Clara is brilliant, dedicated, and unapologetically intense. She shares Kyle’s commitment, his sleepless nights, and his obsession with excellence. They become inseparable—study partners, academic rivals, and emotional lifelines for one another.
But with their unspoken feelings comes a harsh truth: their world has no room for distractions. Love is risky. Love is messy. Love could ruin everything they have worked so hard to build.
As their connection deepens, so does the pressure—from academics, from family, and from fear. In the silence between “what if” and “what now,” Kyle and Clara are forced to confront what neither of them can say aloud: they could have been perfect, if only life had allowed it.
This is a story of restraint and recklessness. Of burning quietly. Of two hearts that knew each other too well, but never well enough.
This is Unlucky Us.
