4:32 PM - The Summer We Started Drifting

The Hours We Become Us Series #4

Ren Mendoza and Talia Reyes were once inseparable best friends who spent every summer together. At exactly 4:32 P.M., during what should have been another perfect summer afternoon, something begins to change between them.

As they prepare for college, new friendships, shifting priorities, and unspoken feelings slowly create distance between them. What once felt effortless becomes complicated, as misunderstandings and emotional silence replace their usual closeness.

By the end of the summer, they are no longer as connected as they used to be. Years pass, and both try to move on separately, but neither truly forgets what they lost. Eventually, fate brings them back together, giving them a second chance to understand what went wrong-and whether love can still survive after drifting apart.
