Where It All Begins is a collection of stories that explore how a relationship begins and grows through the years.
In the title story, Nico Tamayo wakes up on a random Thursday morning and finds an angry girl with the saddest eyes he had ever seen, telling him off for sleeping at her desk. Despite starting on the wrong foot, Nico feels drawn to her and takes it upon himself to make her smile again.
No Giving Up finds community development workers Faith and Nico catching up on a video call in the middle of the pandemic lockdown, as they grapple with a world that seems to get harder and harder to save.
Faith and Nico finally reunite for the first time after months of separation during the lockdown in Let’s Run Away. As they figure out what this means for them and what they’ll do next, Nico proposes an idea that’s almost too irresistible to refuse but could change the course of their relationship forever.
