The Things We Never Had.

Emma is grieving the loss of her best friend, Smith, whose death has left a void that no one seems to understand. As the new school year begins, Emma finds herself haunted by memories, guilt, and the relentless taunts of a cruel classmate named Kyle—who is disturbingly connected to Smith’s past. Despite the support of her close-knit friend group, Emma feels isolated, emotionally numb, and unsure of how to move forward. After a particularly traumatic encounter with Kyle, Emma is pushed to the edge, her grief boiling over into a breakdown. A party later that week unexpectedly shifts her trajectory. There, in the quiet darkness of a hallway, she connects with an anonymous, kind voice—only to later discover it belongs to Kyle. Trapped together in a closet during a police raid, old pain resurfaces, but new understanding begins to form. As Emma grapples with her grief and the confusing feelings emerging from her encounters with Kyle, she begins to realize that healing might come from the most unexpected places. But can she forgive someone who played a part in her trauma—and more importantly, forgive herself?
