Told from the perspective of: Nguyen An, a quiet high school senior
Summary:
Nguyen An, a reserved high school senior who finds solace in writing, lives a quiet life behind the scenes — observing the world while staying hidden from it. Despite his invisibility at school, his words have become widely read… just not under his name. He is the ghostwriter behind the emotional, poetic social media posts of Trinh Duong Lam, a popular girl from the class next door — and someone he once called his closest friend.
Lam, now famous after a public breakup and a viral t****k video, has become a figure of strength and elegance online. But behind the filters and curated posts lies a vulnerable side only An remembers — the girl who once cried on the fifth floor of the school where the lights never worked.
As Lam’s online fame grows, An is left behind, torn between admiration, heartbreak, and quiet resentment. He continues writing for her in secret… until one day, he receives a message:
"I know your secret. Stop pretending."
Someone knows An is the ghost behind Lam’s words. And they know more than that — they know why he writes.
From that moment, An is pulled into a spiral of identity, silence, and confrontation. The story explores the fragile lines between visibility and invisibility, between who we are and who we pretend to be.

No caller ID. No contact name.

Just a single message glowing on the screen:

“I never disappeared.

You all just stopped remembering me.”

Attached was a file:

An froze.

“Khánh.”
