128 Days and Counting

Introduction

In the modern world, teenagers tend to be distanced from others in society. They're portrayed as intimidating: the unknown.

On the run-up to his or her 13th birthday, friends of a child's parents often jest that the child will become instantly more reserved, unattached, unapproachable upon the date of their birthday. This will continue until around age 18 when the newly-formed adult will suddenly "snap out of it" and become a fully-fledged member of society again - usually in time for university or college.

The parents will blame hormones and their child's residuous childlike mindset, but do they not realise that they, along with society, are partly, if not mostly responsible for this half-decade of such a withdrawal?

Anna, 16, seems to be no exception.
Until she met Joseph.
