In the quiet, watchful town of Willow Creek, nineteen-year-old Rihanna has learned that loving too loudly is dangerous. Once betrayed by her first love and turned into a subject of gossip, she has spent a year and a half building walls around her heart. She is vibrant, outspoken, and endlessly warm—but in a town that mistakes kindness for weakness, she is labeled as someone unworthy of being chosen. When a pandemic lockdown brings an unexpected message from Dennis, the wealthy boy she has admired from afar her entire life, Rihanna allows herself to hope again. What begins as playful late-night conversations and secret meetings soon grows into something far more fragile and intense. Dennis sees her in ways no one ever has—but he is also bound by fear, reputation, and a need for control that clashes with Rihanna’s free-spirited nature. As their connection deepens, Rihanna is forced into her own survival game: choosing between shrinking herself to fit someone else’s expectations or standing fully in who she is, even if it means losing love. When Dennis offers her only something casual, she must confront the truth about what she deserves—and whether she is willing to risk her heart again. *Almost Yours* is a story about emotional survival, self-worth, and the courage it takes to grow beyond heartbreak. In a world that demands women make themselves smaller to be loved, Rihanna’s journey asks a powerful question: when love returns, will she choose it—or herself?

Stephanie had never known the warmth of a family. Abandoned as an infant and raised in an orphanage, she watched every child around her find a home while she remained behind. Even after turning eighteen, when adoption was no longer possible, she stayed to care for the younger children, becoming the kind-hearted guardian everyone loved. With determination and faith, she eventually stepped into the world, hoping to build a life of her own. Despite her education and relentless job search, rejection followed her everywhere. After months of hardship, a church gave her a temporary job as a cleaner, allowing her to save enough money to rent a tiny apartment. Just when she believed life was beginning to improve, one desperate attempt to apply for a job at a luxurious celebrity hotel changed everything. After escaping a corrupt manager who tried to exploit her, Stephanie accidentally ran into the room of Kai Ray—the world's biggest music sensation and sole heir to a billion-dollar empire. Drugged without his knowledge at a party, Kai mistook Stephanie for someone else, leading to a night that left both their lives shattered. Determined to put the nightmare behind her, Stephanie refused Kai's money, refused publicity, and refused to ever meet him. But two months later, she discovered she was carrying his child. Haunted by guilt and desperate to take responsibility, Kai respected her wish to stay away while quietly ensuring she and their unborn baby were safe. Yet as secrets, media scandals, and painful truths threaten to expose them, the distance between them becomes harder to maintain. Can a woman who has spent her entire life longing for a family learn to trust again? And can a superstar burdened by guilt prove that love is more than fame, wealth, or regret?

In my family, everything was decided by a blind box draw. Even on the day my twin sister and I were born, my parents used a blind box to decide who would be the older and younger sibling. My sister, who was born four minutes before me, drew 'The Beloved Little Daughter'. I drew 'The Responsible Elder Sister'. For 18 years, my parents would place two blind boxes in front of us for everything—from picking our bedrooms and clothes to deciding who got the chicken drumstick. I always ended up drawing things like 'Clean the Entire House' or 'Eat the Chicken Wing Tips'. Meanwhile, my sister always got 'The Latest Princess Dress' or 'Secret Edition: Family Vacation'. Whenever I felt upset, my parents would always say, “That’s fate. Whatever the blind box gives you, you have to accept.” That was until my 18th birthday. My parents brought out the blind boxes again. This time, I drew 'The Right to Attend College'. My younger sister, the girl who had been spoiled and cherished her entire life, drew 'Work in a Factory'.
