My life has one purpose: take care of my little brother Hari and my mother.Five years ago, my father killed himself, leaving us behind to bear bone-deep agony and a back-breaking debt from a loan shark. All I care about is paying off this debt and giving my family a normal, happy life. Love and relationships have no place in my life. Then I agreed to rent my room to the American roommate of my friend Akira’s boyfriend.A paying guest for the next three months.I thought he would come in with the big bucks, and I’d get a breather from barely making ends meet. Never have I been more wrong in my life.He came into my life with a big smile and an even bigger heart. He was joy and laughter and adventure. He was a beacon of sunshine in my dark, gloomy world.I didn’t want to hear it. After all, he was leaving in three months. And I would be right here in my little village, taking care of my family. But with every carefree smile and electrifying touch, he burrowed his way deep into my heart. I cannot allow myself to fall for him and be left behind by a person I love. Again.
