On the Bench

It is the mid-1990s in the Adelaide Western suburbs and the final year of high school for Noah and Sadie.

Sadie is usually just a reserve in basketball, but Noah doesn't mind; the chance to be benched next to the quiet girl with the low ponytail and the tattered Bugs Bunny scrunchie is the whole reason he joined the team, after all.

High school is nearly over.

But Sloopy and Sadie feel more lost than ever,

until they find each other, sitting on the bench.
