    Summary

    Emily never expected that making a call she had attempted twenty years ago, albeit with another try, would be the start of a very surprising yet not unwelcome new twist to her life. That call had signified reconnecting with Andrea, something Emily would probably always doubt if she was deserving of or not.

    But one call turned into one lunch and one lunch into Andy messaging her about random things of her day, first once or twice a week and then throughout the seven days of the week. And eventually they started to hang out more regularly for lunches, coffees, brunchs.

    One day their lunch breaks didn’t align for them to meet, so Emily suggested that they could have dinner instead.

    OR: set after the last events of the movie this follows a year into the relationship. First dates and kisses and introductions. Andy just starts to blend perfectly in the Charlton family.

    Summary

    “Half the fun for you is me being here,” Andy says out loud, a discreet red tinting her cheeks and giving away the sudden warmth in her veins beneath her teasing, light tone.

    “Don't make me laugh,” Emily mutters, though her incessant tapping slows down.

    or

    Three years after reuniting, Emily and Andy have built a life in the margins of their high-powered careers between weekly game nights and the ever-lingering ghost of Runway. But when a Dior event whisks them away to the sub-bleached cliffs of Sicily, the carefully kept distance between them is disturbed, forcing both to reckon with a dormant truth that has been waiting, like the Mediterranean tides, to claim them.
