The quiet years are the years in which everything shifts, without anyone noticing.
These short stories follow teenage boys who learn to live with shadows, with memories, with the changes that happen between people. They are about friendships that transform, about words that carry weight, about loss and pain, and about moments that are barely visible and yet linger for a long time.
Three quiet stories about becoming.

When Marc confesses his feelings to his best friend, their familiar closeness breaks apart-and both must learn how to live with the loss of what used to be.
The Three of Us?
