Realized

So this is how the story goes // We sent each other a feather for the road // And then we both realized // We're just cowards in disguise

After Sofie’s Mom married Rhys, things changed. They left behind their apartment in New York City for a house in the Connecticut suburbs. Now forced into the “family life” her mom has always dreamt of, Sofie is miserable and more alone than she has ever been—until she meets guitar playing, cigarette smoking Lee, the son of one of Rhys’s business partners, who turns her life upside down and, somehow, rights it again.
