Summaryย
Bai Cha opened her eyes expecting the familiar ceiling of her school dormitory. Instead, she found herself trapped in a collapsing old house, the air thick with the bitter scent of medicine and smoke from a dying world.
Before her stood a blind girl with a bamboo crutch, gently calling her name.
That girl was her sister.
And somehow, Bai Cha had become someone else entirely.
In this war-torn era where survival is cruel and women are discarded like broken porcelain, Bai Cha learns the body she inhabits once suffered a miserable fate: divorced by the powerful Xu family for being infertile, abandoned during the chaos of war, and left blind and alone.
Then an equally unwanted woman enters her life.
A disabled Alpha ex-nun, cold-faced and silent, cast aside by the Xu family just the same.
Two ruined souls sharing one fragile roof should have ended in tragedy. Instead, their quiet little home begins to warm. Meals become fuller. Winters become softer. Laughter slowly returns to rooms long haunted by despair.
And most impossibly of allโฆ
Bai Chaโs long-empty womb begins to carry new life.
Against the backdrop of war, prejudice, and fate itself, two abandoned women build a family from the ashes.
