What Is Fingernails About?
“Fingernails” introduces the Love Institute, a company that conducts a relationship test where couples undergo a series of experiments to determine whether they are truly in love and compatible with each other. A couple is meant to be together if they test “positive,” while those who get a “negative” score may lose their fingernails, indicating that they are not with the right person. The story follows Anna, who, despite testing positive with her longtime boyfriend Ryan, suspects they may not be meant for each other. She decided to work at the Love Institute as an instructor for couples. There, she meets Amir, a fellow instructor, and gradually develops feelings for him as they guide couples through the tests. Her fondness for Amir makes her increasingly doubtful of her relationship with Ryan. They take another test, and it turns out to be positive again, while Amir and Anna’s feelings for each other only grow stronger.
