it's (REALLY) not that deep

As we start, Maia finds herself having to be the bearer of bad news on behalf of her best friend, Nessa, who's ex boyfriend is threatening to sue due to unpaid bills during their relationship. Knowing Nessa is going to chicken out, she feels it's her duty to stand up for her friend. For as in the words of Elle Woods: "Ladies it's a fact, that when you're attacked, you've got to respond." Or something like that. This hunt for a stranger Maia has never met embarks her on a path of learning she never thought she'd need. As her feet push one by one on the peddles of her 1992 Trek bike, she realizes that she has been on the road for 24 hours and hasn't moved, nor has she realized the passing of time. Trying to figure out what happened, or where she is, she meets Harlyn, and together the two embark on a new journey to find the ex. Since turning 23, Aria has felt that adulthood has passed her by, but here she learns that it has just been waiting for her, if she is willing to accept it. Along the way, she meets many interesting people, sees much oppression, and witnesses some historic events that all put her life into a whole new perspective.
