When they begin spending lock-down together in the wake of the 2020 pandemic, what starts as a platonic convenience quickly develops into something more. But when a solo trip home to her small New England town puts a strain on their newfound connection, Will and Apurna are forced to reckon with what they mean to each other. Are they friends? Lovers? Or just more forgotten footnotes...
