Somebody Worth Considering

Amaya Fernando has spent her whole life taking care of everyone else. To her younger sisters, she is the one who always answers the phone. To her daughters, she is the steady hand in a house that doesn't always feel steady. She has built her life around patience-the kind her mother taught her, the kind that asks a woman to wait quietly for love to be earned. But there is a version of Amaya's life that no one around her sees.
The late nights she stopped waiting up for. The arguments she stopped having. The small, private disappointments she has folded away so many times they have become part of the furniture. Then someone new walks into her life-attentive in ways she had almost forgotten mattered, offering the kind of ease she didn't realise she had been starving for. And Amaya begins to wonder whether the patience she was taught was ever really a virtue, or simply a habit she had never questioned.
What she doesn't expect is how far that question will take her. Or what it will cost to discover the difference between being wanted and being known. Somebody Worth Considering is a story about the men we choose without meaning to, the ones we stop truly seeing, and the quiet, unglamorous courage it takes to look again-clearly, honestly, and without illusion-at the life already sitting in front of us.
Because sometimes the truth doesn't arrive with a confrontation. Sometimes it arrives in a WhatsApp notification on an ordinary afternoon. And after that, everything sounds a little different.
