Lia is ten years old, confident, stubborn, and convinced that the annoying eight-year-old boy who keeps challenging her at everything is the last person she’d ever want to be friends with. Ni-ki, on the other hand, thinks Lia is the coolest person he’s ever met. Even though she constantly reminds him that he’s “just a little kid,” he refuses to give up trying to beat her—or impress her.
In Los Angeles, 25-year-old police officer Ni-ki spends his nights responding to the same calls over and over—overdoses, thefts, assaults, and people slipping through a system that barely notices them.
This story is told entirely through text messages and social media, so there won’t be any action descriptions while the characters are texting. Their thoughts, expressions, and actions are shown only through their messages, emojis, stickers, photos, or the way they type.
This is a pure texting-based story between Lia and Ni-ki, where everything only exists as messages on a phone. There is no narration, no storytelling descriptions, and no explaining what they are doing — only what they text.
