Reborn, But I Refused Him
Hidayah Kamari remembers her past life.
She remembers the love that consumed her, the trust that cost her everything, and the ending she never survived. Reborn into modern Singapore, Hidayah makes a deliberate choice: she does not chase revenge, fate, or lost emotions. She lets the past stay buried—and builds a present anchored in discipline, routine, and control.
Silat steadies her body.
Archery sharpens her focus.
Silence becomes her refuge.
But not everyone chooses to let go.
Michael Ng Kok Hui remembers too—and where Hidayah finds closure, he finds obsession. Convinced that memory means ownership, Michael spirals into delusion, stalking her across semesters, boundaries, and finally the law itself. As restraining orders fail and mental illness collides with accountability, his fixation escalates into violence that shatters the illusion of safety.
Standing beside Hidayah is Khairul Asri—older, steady, and unyielding in his respect for her autonomy. He does not ask her to forget her past, nor does he try to replace it. Through quiet vigilance, shared training, and unwavering presence, Khairul becomes a constant in her life—not as a savior, but as a choice.
This is a story about memory without surrender, love without entitlement, and a woman who survives not because she forgot—but because she chose to move forward anyway.
