Every night becomes a battle between exhaustion and tolerance, until the breaking point arrives—a sleepless night before a crucial exam shattered by loud intimacy, forcing her to confront the source of her unrest.

What began as silent endurance now demands a voice, revealing the fragile balance between coexistence and personal peace.
