Parallel
A Laurelville college dropout and aspiring model, Sonja swore off men and dating apps, and especially men on dating apps…until she met Jonas.
A straight-A student and prospective counselor, Jonas had no time for dating and women…until he met Sonja.
They spent three hundred hours, ninety days, three months, in the talking phase—and now they’re finally ready to meet in person.
A first date at their local favorite café Out of This World sounds perfect—but when Sonja shows up at the decided time and day, she finds Jonas missing from the café. Did they get their wires crossed? Was it a different location? Or worse…did he just not show up?
Little does she know, Jonas is experiencing a similar fate at his local Laurelville café.
The two assume they’ve been stood up, and although it may be the trend of the times, it hurts nonetheless. However, a quick video call turns their despair into confusion. As Jonas shows he is indeed in the café, so does Sonja…so who’s in the wrong? If it’s the same time, date and place…what’s different?
Are there forces beyond their understanding lurking in their universe, wreaking havoc on their dating life? And are they the only ones affected?
