Bradely Morgan has grown up knowing exactly what he wants: to play rugby the way his father and grandfather did, and to mean every word he says. Coraline Hughes has grown up learning the value of things --- patience, precision, the slow art of getting something exactly right. They start secondary school on the same September morning in a small Welsh town, in worlds that were never supposed to touch.
A rained out lunch hour throws them into the same library table. A shared thermos of coffee becomes a Wednesday ritual neither of them names. A boy who brings daffodils for fifty pence and a girl who writes the truth in green chalk fall, slowly and carefully, into something neither of them is in a hurry to call by it's real name.
But the world that made Bradley who he is --- the squad, the status, the boys who read a room before they read a person --- has never had to make space for someone like Coraline. And when that world finally notices her, what breaks isn't trust. It's time.
