Passing Notes

A narrator tells the story of his first love through handwritten notes written back and forth. Through reading the many notes, Matty and Mae discover love, experience the palpable joy of obsessive infatuation, they argue and fight, share a first kiss and some terribly embarrassing dancing, they break up and they get back together. All the while they forge an unbreakable friendship. Mae teaches Matty a lesson he'll carry with him for the rest of his life: how to deal with the death of a loved one and eventually love again. The narrator assures us that even young love can be powerful and meaningful. Time is not promised to any of us and everything in life is fleeting, except love.
