In a city that never seems to dry, Nay, a 25 year old poet with a sharp wit and a tired heart, spends her afternoons in the same café pretending to write, hiding behind humor, and waiting for her anxiety to loosen its grip.
That's where she notices Olive, a 23 year old woman with a soft smile and tired eyes who seems to belong everywhere but looks a little lost in her own skin.
A slow-burn, emotional romance about loneliness, vulnerability, and the quiet courage it takes to be known.
