Two souls. One impossible timing.
Omar has spent his life living by duty, not desire. His marriage exists only on paper, his heart locked away behind loyalty and fear. Then he meets Layla, a stranger who feels like the answer to every silent ache he has ever carried.
Their connection is instant. Unmistakable. Dangerous.
Night after night, they steal hours the world has not given them permission to keep. Rain-soaked sidewalks, secret laughter, promises that tremble against the truth he refuses to face. Layla wants love without hiding. Omar wants her more than he wants forgiveness.
Just when he finds the courage to choose her, fate is already turning its back.
A sudden accident. A confession too late. A love story cut at the moment it was finally ready to live.
Now Omar must learn how to breathe in a world where the only person who ever saw him has vanished. With her red umbrella as the last piece of hers he can hold, he walks through the storms alone, searching for a reason to keep living the life she believed he deserved.
A raw and intimate tale of forbidden love, shattered timing, and the kind of heartbreak that teaches us what it truly means to love loudly.
Sometimes the right person comes at the wrong time.
Sometimes love arrives... just a heartbeat too late.
