✒ SYNOPSIS "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you." -Maya Angelou After years of being a ghost writer on the road, you get the opportunity to finally tell your own story. When your plans change unexpectedly, you end up moving into your family's recently bought home while they're away on vacation. Through chance encounters with people from your past, present, and a potential future interest, you explore the most pressing story you've ever told: your own.
