Between late nights, first crushes, new friendships and the chaos of becoming an adult. She begins to find her place with the steady support of her friends and grounding love of her family. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAntonina believes she has the year carefully mapped out, until she meets him...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat follows is a journey of emotional awakening, self-discovery, and the fragile beauty of first love. Rooted in Pacific warmth, humour and lived experience, Antonina's story holds both youthful impulsiveness and the quiet weight of where she comes from. She invites readers into the moments that shaped her, the almost love that lingered, the heartbreaks left unresolved, and the constant pull between desire, family, faith, culture and identity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAntonina explores what it means to grow into yourself while carrying the echoes of who you once were.
