Where Our Story Began
It starts with a message.
Emma and Chris have known each other for years, but they have never really known each other. When they begin talking again in February 2018, neither of them expects those conversations to become important.
What follows is not a whirlwind romance. It is something slower. Two people gradually making room for each other in lives that already exist. Long conversations, evenings together, first touches, uncertainty, jealousy, laughter, arguments, and the question neither of them is quite ready to ask:
What are we becoming?
Where Our Story Began follows the first six months of Emma and Chris’s relationship, from February to August 2018, and the small moments that slowly turn an unexpected connection into something neither of them planned.
This is where their story begins.
