Resonance of the Midnight Keys

Roland Glasner is a high school student living on the absolute fringe of stability. Balancing an exhausting rotation of night shifts at a convenience store, part-time warehouse sorting, and keeping his household afloat, he exists in a state of perpetual fatigue. He doesn't have time for teenage drama, romance, or friends. His only refuge is the dusty, untouched grand piano in the music room annex after school hours, where he plays from memory before rushing off to work. Everything changes on a wet Tuesday evening when Eleanor Vance—the school’s idol, hailed from an influential family and pursued by half the male student body—finds herself stranded at Roland's convenience store without her wallet or phone power. Roland quietly covers her bill without giving it a second thought. That small, ordinary act opens the door to a world Roland avoided: a network of wealthy classmates, jealous rivals, overlapping crushes, musical competitions, and an inescapable connection with Eleanor. As Eleanor intrudes into his rigid schedule and Roland gets pulled into the dazzling, chaotic high school social web, both must navigate their unspoken feelings, jealousies, and the stark divide between their two worlds.
