Holding the Sky Up (en Inglés) - Davis Shyaka Musirikare

Hana is always polite. She is the first to arrive at the office, the last to leave, and the one who always remembers every birthday and coffee order. To her colleagues, she is a lifesaver. To her mother, she is a success. To the world, she is the perfect picture of stability. Everyone thinks Hana is fine.

But behind the practiced smile, Hana is made of thin glass.

For ten years, Hana has worked as a lead coordinator for a demanding firm, navigating the ego of her boss, Mr. Rossi, while keeping her own heart hidden. She has mastered the art of the mask-until the day her world begins to shatter. What starts as a small crack in her porcelain life becomes a flood she can no longer contain.

When a physical collapse forces Hana to stop, she encounters Mateo, a messy and observant artist who sees the "unseen tears" she has worked so hard to hide. He doesn't want the polite version of Hana; he wants the woman who draws birds in the dirt and dreams of the sea.

As Hana uncovers a betrayal hidden deep within the firm's files and a secret letter from her past, she is forced to make a choice. Will she continue to be the anchor holding up everyone else's sky, or will she find the strength to let the pieces fall and build something real from the ruins?

Holding the Sky Up is a cinematic and deeply emotional journey about the cost of kindness and the power of human connection. Written in clear, beautiful English, this novel is for anyone who has ever felt invisible in plain sight. It is a story of hope, the beauty of being broken, and the courage it takes to finally say, "I am not fine-and that is okay."
