Give Us Some Time to Get Used to Each Other
A new house. A stubborn stain. A lot of silence.
Will and Jane have been together for years. Their new house should feel like the start of everything. Instead, the first week turns into a slow standoff: Jane wants nights alone with him, Will keeps inviting friends over, and he can’t stop scrubbing at the sharpie marks the last owners left by the front door.
He dodges calls from his mom since his parents’ divorce. She hides how sad she’s been behind bits and jokes. When their best friends show up newly engaged, the gap between the couple Will performs and the one they actually are gets impossible to ignore.
It’s a quiet, funny, painfully honest look at the moment two people realize love isn’t the same as knowing each other, and decide whether to learn.
