Prolog
The red dress, now a symbol of that unforgettable night, was carefully folded and placed back in the boutique’s display. It waited, patient and poised, for the next soul who might need a spark of confidence, a splash of color, and a reminder that hope—when dressed in boldness—can truly be contagious.
“Bagaimana kabarnya?” the shopkeeper asked, smiling. “You’ve found our star piece.”
When she caught sight of the red dress, she felt a sudden tug at her heart.
