Fourteen
Inseparable friends, Mara and Jo have been together since childhood. At the age of 14, Mara and Jo first met. Mara is reliable, while Jo is troubled. There is little stability in either of their personal or professional lives; their jobs are tenuous, their dates don't work out, and writing is something they do on the side. When Jo needs Mara's help, Mara will do everything she can to help. Jo will be thinking about something else by the time Mara comes over. Even as Jo's depression and Mara's resentment develop, the plot moves forward cautiously and focuses on another manifestation of the same pattern each time it does. Jo and Mara's relationship is strained by the passage of time, which includes new jobs, new relationships, drug use, tears, and new beginnings, a pregnancy, and the birth of a daughter.
