I thought I had almost everything. Then I met Miranda. And for the first time, it wasn't enough. Good looks. Parties. Girls whose names I never learned. Life was easy... or at least it looked that way. I never let anything get close enough to matter. She didn’t flirt back. Didn’t care who I was. There was a quiet sadness in her, like she was already halfway gone. And for reasons I still can’t explain, I couldn’t walk away. One winter night, in the middle of a snowstorm, I found her sitting alone. I sat beside her. No words. Just shared silence, cold air, and something beginning between us. What grew between us wasn’t simple or safe. It was real. Intense. Beautiful in the way broken things can be. The kind of love that doesn’t promise forever, only that it meant something. This is a story about first love. About finding someone when it matters most. About how fragile life is— And choosing to live it anyway. It’s about the fall.
