At 29, Angel has become everything her family from the province dreamed she would be-successful, independent, and thriving in the bustling city. As the eldest child, she carried the weight of responsibility early on, pushing herself through sleepless nights and endless work to provide and prove her worth.
By day, Angel is the dependable career woman her colleagues admire. But when midnight falls and the noise of the city fades, she retreats to a rooftop under the moonlight. There, she confronts the silence that no amount of work can fill-the ache of dreams deferred, the cost of sacrifices, and the loneliness of carrying burdens she cannot share.
Midnight Thoughts of a Workaholic follows Angel's quiet journey of self-discovery as she navigates between duty and desire, ambition and peace, the life she built and the life she longs for. A moving story of family, sacrifice, and the search for balance, it asks the question: What do we lose when we give everything to work-and what might we gain if we dare to pause?
