Once-or sometimes a few times-in a person's lifetime, time misaligns just enough for two people from different points on the same timeline to briefly intersect. Neither controls it, neither fully understands it. Arkin is a young man drowning in grief and betrayal, struggling to survive after losing his family. Stan, a quiet café owner haunted by dreams of a lover he can't reach, suddenly crosses paths with Arkin in a fleeting yet impossibly familiar moment. As cryptic messages and inexplicable encounters pull them together, Arkin and Stan must navigate the strange overlaps of time, learning that love can exist even when the world seems determined to keep them apart. With the help of Arkin's irrepressible best friend Kaye, the line between fate and chance blurs, and they discover that sometimes, when time hesitates, it brings the right people together-just when they need each other most.
