"Our time is up. It feels surreal, our entire relationship. I've always known that we had an expiry date. I don't mean to say that I never cared about her or that I never wanted a future with her. There was just a certain threshold in our relationship, that we were never able to break past. We both acknowledged it and chose to ignore it. No, I chose to ignore it. She probably hasn't noticed that things have changed, that I have changed."

Monica and EJ's love story is a complex cautionary tale that is both beautiful and melancholic. Their story is captured through a timeline of events that have taken a lot from them.
