James embarks on a journey of self-discovery and unexpected friendship. After years of homeschooling, he steps into the unfamiliar world of a traditional school, where he crosses paths with Nathaniel, a student who challenges every fiber of his being. James's initial disdain for Nathaniel is palpable; he finds him annoying, overly persistent, and irritatingly confident. Nathaniel, in contrast, exudes a misplaced sense of pride and seems to James like a dejected puppy, desperately seeking acceptance.
Yet, Nathaniel's intentions are pure-he earnestly seeks to befriend James, oblivious to the disdain he provokes. As the story unfolds, their dynamic evolves from mutual annoyance to a complex bond.
