The Girl in a Pink Bow is about the playfully dramatic and ridiculously chaotic life of a 20-something who is living through her worst nightmares and fanciest romantic fantasies. It is a story of a girl in her 20s who sulks about her professional life, and her romantic life is a rollercoaster ride in itself. Maohi keeps changing jobs and struggles to hold onto her romantic relationships. Whenever she feels she has found the perfect role, a new issue arises. Every time she runs into a promising romance - she gets cheated on, is disapproved by the boy's mother, the profession takes precedence, meets a boy who has a girlfriend, gets ghosted - just girl things. Irrespective of what life throws at her, she is hell bent on living the best life and exploring herself in the process. So, every time she hits a snag, she goes on a holiday. Though what she probably needs is therapy. Maohi believes that Alfred Adler figured it out, and she doesn't fancy Sigmund Freud. Hence, she keeps levelling up instead, or at least that's what she believes she is doing. Will she find her financial freedom and her happily ever after.…
