The Republic of Love

Fay and Tom live in the same apartment block. They live parallel lives but they have never met, a symptom of life in the modern age. Mutual acquaintances connect them, and one day they meet. This is it he/she is "the one." But suddenly, Fay is dealt a devastating blow at the hands of her family, which throws doubt into her mind and causes her to call the whole thing off. Tom is devastated; Fay is miserable at her decision but steadfast. Can they ever reconnect?
