The Noelle Situation

High school student Phoenix Hudson can't help but spend hours thinking through her views of what life Is and Is Not, and the various forms and natures of love. One day during the summer she wakes to find her father gone, leaving no clue but a note on the counter and Phoenix to fend for herself. But as the money runs out, it's not long until the reality of her situation catches up with her. Noelle Davis has drifted through her adult life not really connected to the world since the tragic events of her past. Constantly stuck in the world of what used to be, it isn't until she notices a student in her class that she begins to question life again. Have they really found their way forward, or will the emotions they discover bring them to pieces?
