Friends in the Shadows

Summary

In a small town called Drowsy Bay every person is familiar with the other. Far away from other cities, it does not receive visitors, nor commuters frequently. 

Yasa is new in Drowsy Bay: As an introvert who hasn’t gone out a lot as a child, she has difficulties expressing her feelings and intentions. She meets Zaika and is fascinated by her outgoing way. She gathers her courage to approach Zaika, however it backfires. In fact, Zaika sees her as a stalking creep.

Main conflict: Attempt to overcome social awkwardness backfires 

Will she manage to become friends with her?

Do not let your fear consume you or keep you from making amazing friends!
