Pricilla Miller just got out of labor, when two men in uniform come into the hospital room to bring her some very bad news about her husband, Sargent John Miller. She is desperate and sulks in her sorrows. She soon turns off her humanity and doesn't talk or even look at people. One day, her brother, Mitch, who has been helping her with her two kids, Heather and Luke, told her that she needed to show more respect to others than she has been. She then realized that she had been an awful person lately, and she promised that she was going to be better, she swore she was.
A few years later while Pricilla's kids, Heather (age 6) and Luke (age 16), where at school, she was bumped into a high school friend, Jouline. They caught up on some stuff and then Jouline strted noticing she looked a little lonely and restless. She finally decided that she was going to make Pricilla go on blind dates. Pricilla agreed just so she could please her friend. She had an imagine in mind, though, which no one meet. Until one day, Pricilla was at a coffee shop, named Cafe Grande, and she saw a man sitting in the far corner, alone. He kept staring at her, and she would blush. Then, he scribbled down something one a notebook and held it up, it read: "Hey gorgeous". That's how it all began..
They stayed in the coffee shop everyday for at least an hour just writing on their notebooks and showing each other from afar. Soon, Pricilla decided that she wanted to go sit with the man and actually talk to him, but when she was walking up to him, he scrambled out of his seat and ran, leaving his coffee behind. The next day when Pricilla went to the coffee shop, there was already a cup of coffee waiting for her, along with a rose and a note. Turns out the man had been keeping a secret from her...
London's chilly weather has to be one of my favourites. Especially when walking through the streets at night with almost no one around. The silence of the empty city is only heard by one of my ears as I have one AirPod in. I finally go inside the pharmacy, making my way to the hair products aisle. Picking up a vanilla-scented pair of shampoo and conditioner, I head to the self-checkout.
I pay for my purchase and walk out the automatic doors, bumping into someone almost instantly. The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground startled me and I look over to the person asking if they're okay, I'm met with the green-eyed gaze of a man who held my arm to help me not fall like the thing that was on his back, which looks like a guitar case... Is it broken?!

Lana decided to enjoy her early 20s as a physical education student and just moved to London, but only knows Charlotte, a girl she met during a trip to the city almost a decade ago. When she arrived Charlotte introduced her to Owen, who has been her best friend since birth. Lana started working as a barista and met Isaac, a man who was classmates with Owen a couple years back, and is also her coworker who seemed to enjoy playfully hitting on her, or making her life a living hell, as she would say. They can't live around each other without their usual bickering sessions that seem to never come to an end, yet, they're in the same friend group.
