After moving to a quiet English village for a fresh start, {Y/N} wants nothing more than to be left alone. Settling into a cottage beside an ancient forest with their reserved caretaker and loyal dog, Archie, they plan to live a peaceful, secluded life. School, however, introduces an unexpected complication: Ike, the quiet classmate who refuses to be discouraged by their cold indifference. As awkward encounters, silent walks, and chance meetings in the woods slowly become routine, two guarded teenagers begin to realize that trust isn’t built through grand gestures—but through the quiet choice to keep showing up.
