Flora and Vivian aren't remotely similar. In fact, they seem the least likely to become friends. So when they sit near one another in band class for the first time, it seems impossible that they would get along so well. What happens when they begin to become something more than friends, and when each of their friends find themselves tangled in the same situations? When their families are too difficult to deal with at times? When it becomes too difficult to say the three most beautiful words you know, and you have to find other ways to say them?
